You have until October 27th to post your final pictures (No more than 12 pictures per entry).

And it made my day seeing you are entering our contest MR!

[Luke Sprywalker]

Beautiful work Ron! MR that is some stunning work! Can't wait to see what you are cooking up! I have been toiling away on my entry and will post a few quick shots here soon. I may post some of my finished shots here as well since only 12 photos are allowed in the final entry thread.

[Luke Sprywalker]

I'm back! OK I took a few pics so you guys can see what I have been up to. Ron and I picked the same theme, Adventure Team GI Joe series at 1:18 scale. I knew Ron would create a museum quality tribute to our favorite 12 inch figures, heck we picked the exact same ones too! So I went the route of looking at this as my chance to produce my own line, actual product I would want to see on shelves if I worked for Hasbro. My idea is to give the consumer a nicely articulated action figure with a decent amount of accessories then offer small diorama/play sets, vehicles, beasts and accessory packs as well. Here is a small glimpse of the work I have been doing.


I didn't have much time for WIP pics but here is the scratch built flatbed crane attachment for the back of the 6 wheeler.
