    Steve Austin & Fred Sloan (Mr. X)

    Majors clam.jpgSaxon clam.jpgSteve & Fred.jpg

    Both are sporting painted CTVT clothes and shoes. I decided to go a different route instead of the good old red track suit and maybe put Steve into something "groovier." Mr. X looks a little more "Gap" than I was going for but I can always swap out the jacket for something more appropriate.
    Steve's head was purchased from someone (some of you know who I mean) and painted by me. I like it but it doesn't look like him! any suggestions? tips? I think the eyes are too dark.
    Fred's head is a DM bald man head that I cut up and then sculpted some hair onto and made the wires and circuit "face."
    I made and printed my first backing cards (and need ink for my printer!) which I inserted into FTC clamshells.

      Those came out great! - is that brown jacket a BSG jacket re-painted? or from another line?

        it's actually a CTVT jogging suit top that I was going to paint red for Steve, but thought it might work as a coat for Sloan. I was going for the "Day of the Robot" fight scene when his face comes off.
        the backing cards look like they were designed by Andy Warhol! definitely will have to reprint them once I get some ink.

          Cool! Day Of The Robot is one of my fave SMDM episides. Can Fred's face fit back on to be ripped off the the "bionic battle"?

                  nope. thought about doing that, but... no

                  Steve's suit is also from CTVT, it was the all white one.

                  Here's a closeup of Mr. X:
