singsingjohnny Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Sorry the images are small, but you get the idea. Torso is from Cap movie Bucky, helmet is movie Iron Man V1, pack is the SCUBA tank from the Black Lagoon set, pants are Ready to Believe You Ray Stanz, hairpiece is First Class Xavier and I can't remember the head. Thanks for looking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiniFiend UK Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 That is excellent and great use and modification of the base parts on the helmet. Also love the use of the flight base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fujis Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Great Scott, that is beautiful! Well done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Nice work! I made a Rocketeer custom myself recently (you can see it here if you'd like to compare), but I used mainly decals for mine. Your sculpting work here is really, really good. BTW, looks like his head came from a generic MAX trooper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) Nice work! Very clever use of the flight base. Where did the Mauser pistol come from? Edited February 13, 2012 by Lobsterman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gambitron Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Holy crap that is awesome!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singsingjohnny Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 Unfortunately the Mauser is none too easy to get, came with the vintage Toht figure from the early 80s Indiana Jones figure line! Fits perfect though. Thanks so much all, it was a labor of love! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Harris Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Awesome job on that custom, Johnny! The scuplt on the helmet and the back pack is spot on. Very well done. By thge way: welcome to the 'verse! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 singsingjohnny did an excellent job. I had him make one for me as we are good friends and both huge Rocketeer fans. While not nearly as detailed or impressive in scope, I did the rest of the movie cast below... Left to right: Bigelow, Peevy, Neville Sinclair, Jenny, Rocketeer, Lothar I also found that Cannonball's base made for a neat display: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Thanks Garrison. Jenny was a Sand Serif from the Spirit with the arms painted for her gloves. Her hair was from a Mary Marvel figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moo2172 Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 (edited) Outstanding! The entire set is impressive, looks very professional, love it!! Edited February 18, 2012 by moo2172 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singsingjohnny Posted March 30, 2012 Author Share Posted March 30, 2012 Thanks for all the feedback, it was fun making the Rocketeer! My next custom project is Indiana Jones! At least a few characters from each movie...will post here when finished, of course. Just need a few 'mates to complete the lineup (GB movie Janine, J Jonah Jameson (from the DeWolff wave), Ready to Believe You Ray Stanz and 24 End of Day 1 Andre Drazen)...once I get those, it's just a matter of sanding, sculpting and painting! :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
