Hey Realmers! Its been a while since I posted anything. This Cap actually started out as more of a repair than a custom, I got a FO cap in a box of fodder but he was missing a leg from the hip ball down. I thought "that should be easy enough to fix". Well, I was wrong. I had a ML U.S. Agent but the legs just didn't look right, I decided if I was gonna do this I should at least TRY to improve on his original design (which was already pretty awesome IMO). So, I decided to try and Buff up his scrawny legs a bit to go with his already buff upper body. Here is the recipe I came up with:

Upper Body and Pelvis: FO Cap
Hip Balls: Madman
Upper Legs and Knees: ML Frankenstein
Lower Legs: ML Vengeance
Boots: ML Luke Cage
Belt: ML U.S. Agent (unfortunately I had already given Cap's belt to my Crossbones)

He then received an all new paint job with Testor's Model Master paints. I fixed the stripes on his midsection, repainted his armor black with 2 shades of silver/aluminum with clear blue on top to give it that titanium sheen. 2 shades of grey/white on the sleeves and stripes, 3 shades of Red on the boots, gloves and stripes, and 3 shades of blue for the pants. The only thing I didn't repaint completely was his head, he got 2 shades of blue for the mask, repainted the wings and decided to just touch up the paint rub and factory defects on his skin as it was already pretty good. Finished it all up with a matte clear coat to protect him.

The FO Cap is by far my favorite representation of the Captain so I tried to do it justice. Hope you guys like it! I have a few more in the works so I wont be gone so long this time.

THANKS SO MUCH FOR TAKING THE TIME TO CHECK HIM OUT! ANY AND ALL COMMENTS WELCOME! I MISSED YOU GUYS :P

I'll say it again: Daaaaaaaaaaaaaang me but that is one fine looking Cap. The paints are stellar. That extra buff look you gave him makes this all the more hellacious. Great great custom.

Thanks a bunch Danno! I didn't even think about a shield until he was done and I was taking pictures. So I just grabbed the best one I had in my bin. I don't have a bucky shield but I think I may go back and repaint it metallic to match his body armor.
