cool freeze! 

[darthdaddy]

Both of these new customs are really cool.  I'm a sucker for the Death Trooper theme.  I love the creativity on th Freeze.

@GS18: Thanks dude!

@DD: So glad you're into them! Yes, I'll say it again cause it's so true, Zombies+Anything=Amazing! Thanks! He's probably my favorite custom I've done so far

Been away for the weekend and trying to catch up. Love both of these, Mr. Freeze is awesome and the parts choices are just right. The ne Death Trooper looks awesome, just like the rest in your series.

Very cool updates my friend, I have to say I really liked the mr. freeze mando. And is that baking materials I see for the snow??? The Deathtrooper came out really well, I gotta tell you that these "zombie" customs can be a bit......lame? Well you BLEW it out of the damn water! The helmet is amazing! A+

[ActionFigEmpire]

@Spry: ISY is always a great thing to come home to. It gives and gives (great customs) and never asks for anything in return So glad you approve! Yes Mr. Freeze just clicked and I thought of you when I used that piece of "garbage" fodder. Ah it's the same DT I showed last time, but now with completed paint apps Flattered as always!

@Yakface: Thank you thank you! I was going to add a mando helmet with a hole for the rebreather to ontop of/over but it just looked too plain. Mr. Freeze needs those piercing red lenses. Yep that's baking powder! Figured I'd try it after you mentioned it. Turns out it looks great. A bit more crunchy and heavy looking than ordinary flour. Thanks! Yeah I had a ton of fun doing the dried blood and grime and slime on the DT. Zombies are a fine line sometimes. Too much blood can spoil it, too little gore can make it look too clean, and often they look too human. I'm totally flattered you think so! I was inspired by The Walking Dead and SW Galaxies... which both give amazing versions of zombies. When no one's around at work I often do a zombie shamble around the building lol. Cause who wouldn't have a blast being a zombie???

[ActionFigEmpire]

I've added a second Death Trooper to my series. My female Death Trooper was bought on eBay and I'm considering doing mostly Death Troopers for sale for a while at least. This time I've done a male Death Trooper. Some of the DTs in SW Galaxies have blasters that they fire with surprising accuracy, cause come one, a zombie would sooner shoot them self in the face than actually hit a living agile target, that is if you gave them a blaster. In any case this trooper turned into a walker with his blaster still clutched in his cold (warm? Room temperature? are zombies cold?) hand and thus still carries it awkwardly with him. One of his arms was broken and his shoulder bone has punctured his flesh and armor. He was shot in the head by pesky Rebels, died, then came back, still with a blast hole in his helmet. His chest was also slashed possibly with a light saber or maybe a vibro blade or Ryyk blade.

I'm also toying (get it?) with the idea of doing a Death Trooper tutorial video series, so everyone can do their own DTs!

Really like the paint apps on your Death Troopers.  Nice and dirty looking as they should be.  Really like how you did your cuts in the helmet too.  After reading Death Troopers I've been wanting to army build Death Troopers.

[Darth Optimus]

AWESOME DEADPOOL MANDO!  I've wanted to do one of these for a while now, but your's is so epic it's ridiculous.

[ActionFigEmpire]

@DarthDaddy: Thank you! I suppose I should get around to reading the book at some point. The helmet is the hardest part. The helmet on this one is my second attempt. I did another one and flubbed it. Then went back to the first one and did a little modding. My favorite little details on these guys are the spider-web like cracks. After all the armor is some form of metal coated in plastic/ceramic so they should chip and crack when damaged or overly stressed. I'd be more than happy to army build them for you. I'm doing a big run of these to sell but I could definitely do them on commission too

@DO: Thanks dude! It was one of my favorite builds! So glad you think it's epic haha. He's for sale/trade fyi

[Tamer]

Looks good AFE. Back on the front page with you.

You ought to make a full dio and some vehicles to go with them. They can supposedly work vehicle controls from the book! I can smell Zombie Troopers vs. the Sandalorians as I am typing this.

[Mandalore_1992]

man looks great "The Walking Deathtrooper" hahahahahaah

[botwt]

More zombie goodness!!

[lucasclones]

Love the new Zombie and the female one!

[ActionFigEmpire]

@Tamer: Thanks again! I guess even a zombie can be shown love I'd love to do a ruined Star Destroyer interior for these guys! Oh wait!! Brain blast! They'd look perfect in the old 2005 (?) Trash Compactor screen-scene diorama. Lots of trash and sludge for them to shamble through. Yes! I had that thought. I think the Sandos would tear through them and enjoy the hell out of it. Just need to get some chain saws for them. Speaking of which I'm planning a Stormtrooper Zombie hunter figure soon.

@Mandalore_1992:Haha yes! Amazing show! Definitely an inspiration for these! Glad you like them!

@Botwt: You know it! Just in time for Easter too!

@Lucasclones: Hey congrats on Moderator! I have a good feeling about this Thanks for digging my zombies!
