Did over a Jump Trooper based off a WWII German Stuka.

I gave him a hockey tape belt, neck seal, and holster.

Also added some magnets on the back of his armor and his jump pack for sleek swappage, and the bottoms of his feet for a little extra fun posing.

I've nicknamed him the Pontiac Trooper because I used some decals from a Smokey and The Bandit kit I had, you'll see the Firebird emblems on his shoulder and helmet, and the Pontiac symbol on his chest.

Also modified his blaster by cutting off the moulded folding stock and affixing a stock from a GI Joe scoped Uzi.

I bored out the holes in his jetpack thrusters to accommodate the fire effect from a 3¾" Boba Fett I had, makes a decent looking thruster flame.

This was a fun little break from all the peadot I've been doing lately.

Great job as always, he really looks like a walking Stuka. The yellow accents are effective and I like your typical grittycalyptic weathering. Does he have sky-blue shoe soles too?

Thanks a lot!

Augh he doesn't but he totally can! He's got Field Gray boot bottoms right now. He took a shelf dive and busted one of his feet off so I'm in the midst of repairing him.

I was just going to add, no point giving him sky blue soles if he's going to get them muddy anyway. He is absolutely gorgeous, by the way. Excellent job as always!

Nice Camo, and appropriately grungy. Adding mud to his soles will help sell it even more. Nice job.

Thanks man!

I've done some tweaking since taking those photos. Replaced some magnets with even stronger ones (can achieve one-legged poses upside down, now, which is cool)
and will be touching some paint up, so I'll be updating with some new photos soon!
