Civilians The Gangster

itchybitz · #1 (**permalink**) 03-25-2012, 12:52

I recently picked up ACI's gangster suit loose and, after adding an old GI Joe shirt, a Saturday Toys tie, Head Play's Clive Owen sculpt and one of my home made hats, I was rather pleased with him. So I put a little dio together to show him off

Nice,

That Clive Owen looks to be one of their better ones. Are those period Benjamins? If so, where did you find them and are there any 80's ones?

CHEERS!

cool job, I liked

GregT · #5 (**permalink**) 03-25-2012, 14:34

nice work! that dio has a really good feel to it... those 100's are so crisp it looks like he just printed 'em!

I've just put together a similar bash using that sculpt and suit too! Slightly different but great minds and all that

Nice work, love all the little details.

FANTASTIC!! Love all the dressing on the dio!

Cold Justice · #8 (**permalink**) 03-25-2012, 17:39

Nice work! And I really like this pose:

"FUHGIDDABOUDIT!"

Wowser, the hoodlums are loose on the streets. I think those hundreds are current, given the large cameo. Here are some 20s bills.

CHEERS!

Cheers Roger

Yeah, I really like that sculpt and it was a long time before I actually took the plunge and bought a HP product, I now have their danny Trejo too. They're quality is so inconsistent though and I doubt they have much more than half a dozen others as good as these two.

It's from the ACI "Johnny 1930's Gangster " box set.

Thanks Hooky

How funny is that - we both use a very similar combination and post just within hours of each other

I really didn't plan mine at all. I bought this sculpt a while back with no real purpose except that I though it looked cool and I just picked up the suit in a similar manor.
Your version looks excellent, BTW

This really wasn't a planned bash and I just threw it together with what I had to hand. I have to admit I didn't give the era of the bills any thought at all

Thanks for the link though.

Great link there PD!

Just print it out, scale it down and voila, 20's Benjamins! Now to find some 80's ones!

CHEERS!

uramegak · #12 (**permalink**) 03-26-2012, 08:31

Fantastic props!

sharpe · #13 (**permalink**) 03-26-2012, 09:42

wow that's awesome.

Sixth Scale · #14 (**permalink**) 03-26-2012, 10:10

Now that is really darn cool!! I love the figure, the shelf items he's got in his hideout, it all brings it together. Just a figure that radiates: "COOL!!!" Well done bro, well done!

dadrab · #15 (**permalink**) 03-26-2012, 10:37

Mighty fine work, sir. The hat makes the outfit.

Well done.

berndm01 · #16 (**permalink**) 03-26-2012, 10:54

He´s looking fantastic. Comes great with the dio.

mailalan · #17 (**permalink**) 03-26-2012, 18:51

Very very nice. I like the pose sitting backwards in the chair.

fioski · #18 (**permalink**) 03-26-2012, 21:25

Way to go

, love the sitting pose, first photo.

Nice touch on the stick magazine and the added flavor of the sawed off B.A.R.

Yeah I did that BAR for my old set of mobsters and also the "whipit" gun on the table.
It was made by his old friend Mad Dog...

It's Leon, The Professional's gun case from the heroic Toys set.

Love this pic! Great posing Nigel! It looks like he's actually putting his weight down as he saws off the barrel!

Excellent job bro!!!

Daaaammmn, I just noticed MORE detailing! The switch plate on the wall! Wow, I really love this dio- the dirty tile floors, the walls AND THEN all the little bits and pieces!!
