This one was definitely a little trickier to put together, getting shots of his gear and helmet graffiti were tough but I managed to get it pretty good I think.

The graffiti on this side of the helmet got a little squished, you can run out of room on a 1/6 helmet real quick.

He's got a Dragon uniform, HT ruck, with Ace helmet, boots and gear.
The monkey-braided rope is actually some elastic I got with a new pair of shoes, it looked enough like paracord to me, so I tied it together and braided it accordingly.

I like that u gave him a more dignified look than the 1 he sported during most of the flick-
"What's wrong with your lip?"
"I was born with big gums sir".
"Well you better tuck that in. Gonna get that caught on a tripwire".

Thanks! Funnily enough, it's actually an Ice Cube head sculpt, who was originally one of the people they wanted to play the role in the film.

"Anyway, like I was sayin', shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. There's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it."

There was a time when I actually did have the best lines from that movie memorized....watched it dozens of times as soon as I got the DVD years ago. I had the "shrimp" one down pat, and could even do Bubba's voice.
