nope, I haven't but he's still in the works. um...I always have several WIP so that when I get stuck on one, I can switch, but also because a I have short attention span. OH look, blinking lights.

Plowking, you know I already thought of that.

SMOG, the scale on this one is 1/32. the Jeep is a surprisingly tiny vehicle.

autobotx23, styrene and quickwood putty to fill in the gabs. I've got some random military stuff that I'll add for detail.

quick updates for y'all at the top of the thread.
peace,
wj

Man, this guy is coming along rather quickly, looking good bud.

This is awesome man! What is the brand of the kits you are using? I would love to pick up some smaller scale kits to use with deluxe figs.
This is going to be a perfect incarnation of Hound. Great work!

I always love your work. It's nice to see you around. Come back more often (with galleries!)!

I think your work on Hound here is really great. I feel like others in that he doesn't need that much of an update, but it's nice to see him getting some TLC. I also agree that I like seeing some G1 in the mix of so much RotF things. "Variety is the spice of life," my wife always says.

Great work, buddy

Fuzzy? might want to check the expiration date on those eggs bud.

Sculpt-bot, thanks bro. the name of the kit is Safari Jeep by ENTEX it's got a jeep on the front with zebra striping and the entex logo looks like a target with a blue ring and a red dot in the center with a smiley face in the middle. 1/32 scale. model No.9600. 1980 Entex Industries, Inc., (and this made me laugh) Compton, CA. straight outta compton.

SuperSquad7, thanks for the comments. I do what I can bud. I visit in waves. It's high tide right now.

Updated with some more details like a shovel, axe, mirrors, a gun and some other random stuff.
enjoy

Oh man Wheel Jack, this guy keeps getting better and better. I've been gawking at him but I haven't commented until now only because everyone already said what I was going to say, but now I have to say something. Hound has just surpassed anything i imagined he would look like when I saw the first wip photos. I really like the look of the flat military green on that mold a lot more than his stock shade of green. I don't know what it is, it's just better! I can't wait to see him completed. (And maybe your classics Jazz one day too!)

You are the master of re-shelling! This custom keeps getting better and better.

SMOG · 07-19-2009, 03:00 PM

One little touch I love is the way the new shell makes his head look especially tiny... just like the original Hound.
