    The Revolution will be Televised!!

    Howdy all! Here is a little Mego-like kitbasher I have been working on for
    awhile. You have probaly seen his face on many a tee-shirt or poster. So now
    in Mego scale I give you Ernesto "Che" Guevara!


    Love him or hate him, Che is one iconic dude I've known about him for
    a long while, but didn't really read much about him till I saw the movie
    The Motorcycle Diaries. Che had a very interesting but short life. So I don't get to long winded I'm providing a link to "wiki," you can checkout if you like.

    Che Guevara - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    HEAD: One of Laurie's hispanic man aka " Charlie," heads. I did his beard in
    Apoxy Sculpt and used acrylic paints.
    BODY: Body is a restrung CTVT with CTVT glove hands.
    OUTFIT: CTVT army jacket and boots, AJ pants, belt from MonkeyDepot,
    pouches and holstered gun are resin pieces from Matt aka
    Spiderrouge, acrylic paints by me, and his beret is from Buk.
    GUN: His Thompson M1 is from Stevos. Steve Corn does the most awesome
    work in metal, mostly 1/6 scle, but he does some cool Mego scale
    things as well. Paints are by yours truly

    Thanks for looking and enjoy;
    Wayne

    That's a first for me. Well done. He is an interesting and influential person in history. Like him.

                  Hasta La Victoria Siempre... He Was Use To Say I Agree, We Can Love Or Hate Him But He Was Very Important For Many Generations, And Still He Interest Young People All Around The World (my Nephew Got His Poster Among Rock Stars In His Bedroom). Surely He Was A Man Who's Fight And Died For His Ideals ...and Even If I Love Much More Revolutionary People As Ghandy Or Martin Luther King, Because I Hate Violence, Your Mego Tribute To Che Show, Once Again ,that Your Country Is A Great Country. Congratulations For Your New President Too ( Congratulations To Both Sides), I Spent The Whole Night Watching The Election Day Yesterday Night, I Loved Obama's Speach, And He Was My Favourite, But I 've Admired The Mc Cain's One Too...you Did The History Yesterdays, Something To Be Remembered For The Years To Come.
                  God Bless You All Megoheads Usa Citizens .

                        Now this is a custom that boarders on high art. Really daring subject matter!
                        and just to point out the iconic.
