Description
It's your old buddy from the NES, Bionic Commando! Made from a Sigma 6 Adventure Team Recondo body/head, BAF Apocalypse bendy-hose for the arm, Firefly's gauntlet, Long Range's foreams, and a gun pieced together from an Iron Grenadier. Desert Wolf's bandolier thing.Sculpted the hair (my first spikey hair attempt!) sunglasses, and much of the face was modded. The bionic arm has a neodyne magnet at the end and he can hang/swing from anything metal! I'll have more pics of him later with my usual black background but I'm still painting Gordon Freeman from Half Life, no room to set up the light tent yet.

You probably got this question before... but...
Do you plan on doing the new Bionic Commando after the game comes out?

Yep! I wanna play the game first and get a feel for the character.

Man that's awesome. I never got how to play the game though, since he can't jump in it.
I can only imagine what Mr. Cynical of Under power would look like through your style.

Very Nice! I wish I had money... I'd so buy it if you put it up on Ebay... >_<
BC was one of my fave games back in the day...
BTW, the guy's name was Ladd Spencer, for anyone that might care.

He's going up on EBay tonight, yup yup. Hey, make one yourself, customizing isn't as hard as you may think! And woah, that's his real name?! Gotta include that now, thanks!

Nah, that was done by my old pressing/shaping technique. I didn't make the spikes by hand and they were layered together still. Here I made each individual spike and sculpted each side of it.

Wooow ! That gun's pipe diameter is almost as big as his head ! I can hardly wait for Gordon Freeman with HEV suit . Don't forget to put a small light bulb or white LED on his chest ( you know that Gordon Freeman had a flashlight ) . Have you ever thought of doing Serious Sam ?

I tried to do that but couldn't get the body open! Hasbro freaking welds their plastics together. So I'm just going to have to make the chest emblem look really glowy with my paint techniques. He's 80% painted at this point, been working for like 5 hours so far on and off.

That is awesome. Can you believe my 6 year old beat that game? I am floored. He is like a little game guru. We just beat Sonic Heroes. The kid is amazing at sonic.
Did you see the new Bionic Commando previews? It looks like it's gonna PWN.
Oh yea, I didn't get a chance to get a copy of that PSM you were in. Where can I get a copy of that now?

Oh sweet! This was one of my fave games way back when, along with the Contra series. Yup, saw the new BC, dreads and all that. Kinda wish they went with a more 007ish character but it works.
That mag is still on the stands at Wal Marts and mass-market newsstands. Barnes and Nobles might have some left.

Hrmmm, I'll have to look back through the game art for the exact color scheme. It's that one or the one with the black jacket.
