Custom Duke

Here's my first experiment in redoing the chest rigs and vests on old G.I. Joes. The volunteer this time around is Duke.

After a tragedy in the family and a slow return to my hobbies, I've realized that I've been posting more on Facebook. It's easier, faster and the audience response is faster. So, posting here might be spasmodic at best for the time being. Bear with me as I decide what to do with my blogs, thanks!
