Pvt. Joker

Hey Folks, I'm back with some 1/6 stuff this time!

Some of you may remember my first stab at Pvt. Joker from Full Metal Jacket.

I was never terribly happy with the head I was using, DiD's Ricky Foster, so decided to upgrade.


I gave it a full repaint, and a new set of glasses (the first set broke).
I trimmed the upper bridge support, nipped off the curved ends of the arms of the glasses, then drilled some small holes in the side of the sculpt, just at the hairline.





Then it was a matter of a head-swap and the figure was pretty much ready to go.






"You talk the talk but do you walk the walk?"

Awesome stuff.

I agree, he looks great. The first version wasn't bad at all, but this is an upgrade.

Thanks a lot guys!

Outstanding!!!

Thanks dude, glad ya like 'em!

to re-do factory paint is risky, you did a wonderful job!
the added depth to his complexion, and his eyes seem
focused on the near vicinity instead of something far
away.... the photos are excellent, too. very impressive!

That looks good, the original head looked weird. Your repaint is much better.

Nice, imagine him singing

P-I-C !
K-L-E !
M-U-N-KE-Y!
