JetpackBlues Customs Intro
« on: January 02, 2013, 06:51:10 PM »
Just going to drop a few of my 2012 customs...well, all of my customs are 2012 customs because I've only started working on creating this past year. Sorry for the long post of pics

This is my take on a World War II era StormTrooper

WW2 Stormie by JetpackBlues


1940's StormTrooper back by JetpackBlues, on Flickr

Here's everone's favorite zombie killing Pantene Pro V model


Leon by JetpackBlues


Mr Scott Kennedy's Back by JetpackBlues

And a currently jetpackless Rocketeer. Having a hard time crafting a good replica. If anyone knows where I can get a 1:18 scale jetpack for him I'd love to know


Rockteer Dos by JetpackBlues


Rocketeer by JetpackBlues

And, this guy

Very nice. i love that ww2 stormie. I wonder if the battlefront 501st trooper jetpack couldnt be converted to work for your rocketeer figure?

I get the name Jetpack Blues now! And welcome to the Shipyards. I really like the look of the customs in your first post; especially that Clone Sniper and WW2 Stormtrooper. You are now on our front page!

Gonna have to see if I can get my hands on one. I've got one almost complete (albeit crude) and not quite accurate, but this looks like it may be a better base than what I'm using

Wow, way to put pressure on me to create good stuff by putting me on the front page. This is literally just a sample of the customs I attempted that were good enough to post. I create a lot of unpostable crap still bc I'm still trying to learn what the heck I'm doing. Ha

Thanks man. Glad you like it. I get frustrated bc I can pull off something clean like that one and then create 10 rough...ROUGH looking customs. I'm yet to hit consistent
