    John Locke, Tanned and Ready for Action

    The Island of Lost Megos: It's a Tropical Island, Get Some Damned Sun!

    This is my tweaked John Locke. I followed David Lee's head tanning advice and gave pale Locke a nice healthy glow. Also added a facial scar and new eyebrows and a nice CastAway body. The vest is from the Playing Mantic AJ WW2 Ranger with a handmade pocketknife and kitbashed compass.

        That looks great! The Venture Bros. are a bit too pale for me too. I'm gong to try it.
        If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.
