Wanted more of a generic looking classic Cap, so I started a ton of mods on a Faceoff Captain America. That one was always close to perfect.

Repositioned the neck and resculpted the traps and shoulders to reduce the ape-like posture and bulk he had, then replaced his gloves and boots with Taskmaster's so they weren't as flared. The hands were from Bullseye and the head was from the 2-pack Ultimate Captain America. Shaved that down and sculpted the mask and wings. Think I ended up with a nice Cap.

Thanks man! And also to everybody else if I miss it.

Really nice mods. Fixing those traps, and replacing the gloves and boots, as well as the new belt, go a long way to fixing the FO Cap. Plus that head is real nice and the paintjob rocks.

Yea, couldn't stand those silly over-exaggerated build around his shoulders. Always seemed like it'd be sorta simple to fix, but between the neck needin to be repositioned so he's not slouching, and trying to match that scale-mail sculpt it's a pretty tricky mod.

This is the reason why some action figure enthusiasts fap, I mean CLAP! Dammit! Lol clearly gorgeous work, man!
raybot - Thursday, September 20, 2012
Hah, thanks man. I'm sure people's mileage must vary with these things but I'm glad you like it so much

VERY EFFECTIVE... AWESOME JOB.
raybot - Thursday, September 20, 2012
Yea, definitely added up, but the little changes I was making didn't seem to do much on their own. Glad I finally wound down and wrapped this up. Getting those tiny headwings sturdy was really delaying the guy since my display Cap's wings get knocked off all the time. This guy's rock solid though.

This is definitely the classic Captain America! Great work!!
raybot - Thursday, September 20, 2012
Thanks! Funny all the things that made the Faceoff Cap read so modern. Was sort of afraid that the changes wouldn't be enough for this guy to read as a classic Cap.

So much better than the actual version, great job.
raybot - Thursday, September 20, 2012
I like the actual version to represent how he was being drawn by some guys at the time, but I guess I was never a fan of his head/neck/shoulders. Did love the wacky gloves but this guy fits in style-wise a lot better with ML to me.

perfect Cap!
