Devil 505's Collection and Customs

Here it is...the whole enchilada...an over-all breakdown of where alot of money has dissapeared to over the last 4 years.

Figures

Oh hell ! I lost count sometime last year. I have mostly 21st SSAMs, with some Hasbro boys, and Dragon kids mixed in. I just recently got a couple of Blue Box guys.

So here are some pics of a few of my troops and customs.

A custom poncho I made. Yes !, I sew.

A custom Gladiator (Maximus) from the movie.
I used a Max Steel Body and a 21st Geman head.

A mod I did on a Pin-Head Joe. I'm getting better at making the guys look hurt...Kind of sick I know.

Vehicles

I've got way to many vehicles for the amount of room I have at home. But, in my opinion I don't have nearly enough. I have 3 SOTW Jeeps, 3 Humvees, 3 motorcycles, 1 raft (RIB), 2 Little Bird AH-6, 1 M1 Abrams main battle tank, and 1 M5 Stuart.

I'm always looking for new vehicles to aquire or build.

1/6th scale M1 Abrams. A 4ft long, 2ft wide, piece of garage clutter.

My RIB (Rigid Inflatable Boat) I made this out of a plastic hull, a 27 inch motorcycle innertube, and some Zip Ties.

I actually sold the hog for $800.
I still have the scoop on how to build it... So just e-mail me and I'll send you the details.

Here's my latest project...
A 1/6th scale F/A-18 Super Hornet.
I'll keep you updated on the F-18 Project Page.

Customs

I love adding to the existing figures and vehicles. I make the stuff weathered and dirty, add new stuff and make some custom stuff myself. There are guys out there who are so much better than I am at this customizing stuff. I pride myself on the fact that I have almost no budget for some of this stuff.

Hand sewn parachute rigs and rigging. I also made the drop-down bags.

My museum piece. I made this for our local county fair, and it ended up in the local museum. (What an Honor)!!
It took me 42 hours total, cost me about $65. and has over 3000 hand laid shingles on the roof...along with the hand etched brick. This was a blast to build.
