Johnny without his Thunderbolt???
That's like baseball without the apple pie!
Say you, that Johnny Thunder sure looks swell, golly its like he stepped right off the page.
I think the gloss on the Ray fits the character, that much yellow would certainly have me seeing red after I was done.

Ugh, don't get me started on the yellow. Had problems with the left shoulder joint rubbing paint off, repainted it so many times that the paint was too thick and was impeding arm movement. So I had to sand all the paint off and start over. Oy vey. Gonna skip yellow for a little bit. Going Army green for my next custom.

I can neither confirm nor deny that. Hopefully someone will be reporting for duty by the end of the week.

No it's not! Sunday is the beginning of the week! I've got until Saturday and my wife works three nights this week which should give me plenty of time to knock off one figure.

Well, it looks like Sarge isn't getting finished this weekend. Decided to swap out forearms after I started, and sculpting took a little longer than expected. The body is done, just a matter of fashioning all the accessories and painting the stripes on his sleeves and helmet, painting his hair, etc. But here's at least a sneek peek...
