Ok, here are some WIP shots of my RAD Trooper...

As you can see, I combined the lower portion of a Stormtrooper bucket with the Biker Scout bucket, minus the visor.  Then I used some clay to smooth out the transition and hardened it some.  I'm debating on adding in a rebreather and backpack since it would stand to reason it needs to be a self contained breathing apparatus, though it doesn't look like there is one in the picture.  I'm still debating.

looking good Pat!! how tricky is it to work with clay and something that small? thanks for the WIP's pics!!
 is that one of Clints resin shoulder pauldrons? or one of Devins? looks like a very clean cast!

A well-built sniper rifle is a beautiful thing. Ours has two zoom modes, "Up close and personal" and "Hello, you're dead

I'm a long ways off from being GOOD at it, but this one was easy since all I did was fill in some gaps.  I need to alter the rear a bit more yet, I realized looking at my own pictures.

Great looking figure CM. The parts selection matches the reference picture well. Nice paint work as well.

Pat you are off to a great start! Than helmet is very cool and I can't wait to see some paint on this guy.

pat what did you use to sculpt onto that helmet?  it looks good btw, can't wait to see it finished.  I've been thinking about doing some sculpting on some of my resin helmets to make modified helmet molds for recasting (kind of like what clint's been doing already).
