![[Rocketeer Dunny] My good friend Jim gave me a duplicate Dunny figure that he had and asked if I would make him a new figure. He collects loads of those buggers. I am a big fan of the Rocketeer design (as evidence by the other customs I've done of the Rocketeer) so I thought it would be cool to try one in this style. It was a pretty straight forward repaint of the entire figure. I used a small rubber band for the belt and a Disney figure (Kubrik I think they are called) Rocketeer pack. I sliced up a DVD plastic case for the top helmet fin and cut a slit in the the Dunny head and wedged it in tight. Gave the whole thing a dry brush in black and gray for some 'wear and tear'. He was stoked to get the figure.

![[Iron Man - Military] Iron Man Military. This is the Porkchop version of Iron Man. I always do a 'Military' style something or other of figures and vehicles. Just seems to make sense. Any new tech usually came from the military or they buy it up and figure out how to blow stuff up with it.
So, along that thought process...I imagine if Tony Stark really developed this tech and was already selling to the military, he would not only use it for the good of mankind...*yawn*...but also cash in on it huge by selling to the boys in Washington. Win-Win for Stark Enterprises.
Recipe: Iron Man Movie figure. X-Men Apocalypse forearms and hands (hands that came with the figure look wimpy. Looking at the regular figures hands, they are tiny and seem to be designed to hold a gun or something...really, a gun? The Iron Man armor is one huge gun. Does he really need a pistol?)
Paint: Spray painted the figure with a gray base. Then Spray painted it Olive Drab. Then Sand colored areas on the helmet, arms, legs and what-not.

This is my take on what the US Military would do with the Iron Man tech-
Recipe: I removed all armor and primed and painted it Olive Drab. Used Fighter Jet decals all over the figure and replaced Tony Stark's head with Lex Luthor's. Metallic paint was used for bolts and other bits on the figure and then the whole thing was dry brushed in black to give it a 'used' look.

Recipe: Captain Marvel base- Removed the forearms, boots and head. Sliced the boots and forearms off of a select sculpt Superman Returns and planted them on this guy.
The head comes from a Clark Kent figure.
The 'S' symbol also comes from the select sculpt figure. (cut and dremmeled it until it was thin enough to glue on...patience...I have little left)- Same with the belt...uhg, belts...
Then the whole figure was repainted. The tough stuff came in matching the flesh tone of the Clark head. Any tricks out there? I think I came close enough, I just got sick of staring at his neck color vs his head color and trying to match it...I think I even went a little crazy during hour 2 of the process. It was fun, but not a place in my head I want to return to any time soon.

Eat food and customize. That was Porkchop's holiday. Here is one of the figures I was working on while my family was sleeping off the turkey and pie.
Grifter from WildCATS:
Body is ML Jigsaw with Boots from ML Captain America. Head is from the Grifter figure (96?) and the hair (in part) is from Sabretooth..the new Xmen line that just came out a bit ago. Weapons and packs are from various figures (McFarlane and Plan-B)
The helmet had to be dremmeled inside quite a bit to fit over Grifters new hair.
Paint: Not too much- painted the back of his hair to match new hair piece (old hair was BRIGHT yellow- ouch, that will not go over well in battle) and the gloves were painted black.
