What You’ll Need:
1x Colonel Hoffman figure
1x Rookie ODST figure; (canabalized for random parts) the likes of which look like shotgun shells).
(Small bits of string (bracelet variety) used for torso coverings.
Paper packaging material used for “stranded patches” where cloth-like looking material covers sections of Armour (Think Dizzy or Tai).
1x Star Wars Republic Commando Ammunition pouch (canabalized for parts also).
This is a rather simple custom which took me about two hours to think up and finish (mostly due to paint applications). I had first come about doing this custom because I wanted something different from Marcus to lead my COG soldiers, this figure was heavily inspired by Michael Barrick and turned out the way I wanted him.
Patchy, cloth-looking materials were applied to the figure using simple super glue and a lot of patience. I used Apple Barrel paints for applying different colours to the custom. I used various sizes of small brushes to accomplish my paint job, and sometimes used needles for the smallest of details on the armour.
