"Ultimate Plague" now looks like the Curse leader he always should have been. He has been given a full repaint with his arm skull and also gave him slight light green camo. Recipe Head: Plague Torso: Trickshot modded/Plague's chest piece Arms: Trickshot's uppers and Plague's lowers Crotch: Trickshot Legs: Trickshot's uppers and Plague's lowers

Im interested in more detail how these conections were made. Is there swivel still at these points? Example when you take apart the upper arm what kind of peg does the old lower arm have?

I literally just "unpegged" the forearms and legs. I used Plague's original lower leg and peg to attach it to Trickshot's. I actually unpegged Trickshot's forearm and left his skin-toned swivel and tried painting it but it gave way to too much rub. In the end, took out Trickshot's swivel and added Rain's swivel and placed that black swivel into Trickshot's upper arm. I then attached Plague's lower arm to that swivel. I hope that makes sense.

Also, I just noticed in that pic that you highlighted the painted parts. I painted Trickshot's "rolled sleeve" black as if it was a part of the elbow pad. I also painted Trickshot's knee pad black to match Plague's knee pad. Those are not extra pieces.

Well done! Looks great, and generally true to the design of the original.

When you make your next please consider taking some work in prgress photos of this process. I will try to figure it out untill then thanks!

I don't know if I'll try Rain next. I feel The Corps also needs their leader updated. More prone to do it in the original Commando Rain, but may try the black jacket Rain.
