Yes another US Agent custom! My motivation for this like everyone else is that he needs to be larger than the puny Epic Heroes wave one on the Bucky Cap body! He's supposed to be 6'4 270lbs! So he should in theory be on a shorter body than the Hyperion buck (which I consider for characters of 6'6 - 6'10), it has the mass which makes him more muscular than 6'2 240lbs Captain America.

So when the recent Absorbing Man Venom came out, I knew I'd do 2 characters - classic Crossbones (upcoming) and US Agent.

Simple recipe, just took the head from the Onslaught wave Cap (which was too big for him anyway), and the boots from Hyperion. I sculpted the gloves, and figured out how to effectively sculpt wrinkles and folds, which I'm very pleased with because now that means I can sculpt clothing effectively. And you guys will know I'm still finding my feet in sculpting, so I'm glad to be getting better at it. I embedded a small neodymium magnet in the right cuff, and on the shield, so I don't have to clip on anything and scrape paint off :/
Oh and sculpted his belt too.

Everything but the eyes is handpainted :)

The shield I wanted to look more like the source art, so I dremmelled off the star and sculpt a nice smooth middle part.

You can see how much bigger he is than Cap!

Thanks for looking!

Great in scale US Agent! Imo, the Hyperion buck is for characters in the 6'4-6'6 range. The new Omega Red buck is perfect for 6'10- 7 footers such as Warpath. Not too many marvel characters 6'8 or bigger. The classic 90s Cable buck is perfect for bigger guys as well.

Don't you just love those new black Hyperion bodies? Same idea crossed my mind, great execution! I always had a respect for John Walker.

Those red and white lines are incredibly crisp. Really impressive. And the folds in the gloves look great.
