    Starbuck

    Custom Lt. Starbuck custom using a CTVT Married with Children Jefferson head and a dyed Fearless Fonzarelli jacket.





    I think the jacket needs to be darker, and he needs a shirt, but it's a good start for now I think.

      He's pretty cool looking. I have to agree with BlackKnight; where did that helmet come from?
      Nice touch with the cigar as well.

        That is so sweet! I used to love that show and since they used so much stock footage, I liked it extra.

        Nice work. cool helmet.

          I've been waiting since forever for someone to do this. I've seen a BG helmet before, but never a complete custom, totally awesome. Cool card too

            Nice custom but mostly I'm just glad to see he is a guy.

              Megojim from Knockknock toys did an Apollo custom, using either a Coy head or a Vance head with a new paint job.

              I WANT ONE OF THOSE HELMETS!!!!!!

              It never occurred to me that Jefferson would make a good stand-in for Dirk Benedict; boy am I glad I decided to take a peek at this thread!

              Maybe you could use a Tony Verdeschi head for Apollo.

              The jacket isn't all that bad, I kind of like it.

                The helmet is from a Joyride Studios BG figure from maybe 2 years ago, plastic figure about 6 or 7". the Helmet actually fits on the CTVT Alan Carter head, but Jefferson's head is to big.

                Also, I ordered a Tony Verdschi head already, we'll see how that works.

                The gun is also from the Jkoyride
                Studios figure, and If I can find some more of them I'll strip off the Gunbelt and holster too as they look like they'll fit.

                    Looks cool. Head works great. Love the holster is there nothing you can't do with craft foam. Were those my cluster stickers or did you do others?

                        Chuck, that is indeed your sticker I used, perfect size for his sholder patch. And the craft foam belt will be temporary if I can find another BG figure at the toy show this Sunday so I can get a proper belt and holster.
