Re: The G.I. Joe Project
I know this is a question that may seem odd coming from me at this point in the game, but what is "Green Stuff" and where do I find it? I have seen it referenced a million times and have yet to acquire any of it for myself.

Re: The G.I. Joe Project
Game Workshop (Warhammer/WH40K/LOTR) sells it at their shops or online. In the package it looks kind of like a piece of gum that is half blue and half light green. You cut a thin stripe off the end and then fold the blue & green halves together, continuing to mash it up until it becomes a dark green blob. I believe another company sells some kind of similar modeling material but it is not green. Hence the name 'green stuff' for that specific product. You can then mold the green stuff into shapes as needed (use water on your fingers & tools to keep the stuff mailable) for the next few hours before it starts to set. Once left overnight, that is the shape it will remain in.

Re: The G.I. Joe Project
Well, I am definitely going to have to check into that then. I have a number of pieces that come to mind that could make use of such a thing.

Re: The G.I. Joe Project
Yeah, it has come in pretty handy the more I use it and get familiar with using the stuff. I bough my package several years ago and thought it was a bit pricey at the time but it has been worth it. I still have a bunch left too, you don't need very much to get quite a bit of detailing work done. Or you can use a large amount to create a cape or something similar from scratch. I'd just recommend doing a few small things the first few times before taking on something big.

Re: The G.I. Joe Project
Destro and CC, Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow around 200. Baroness 100-140
Cobra squad 70-100 Nice list. Dredd will be a force in GI Joe-scape. A cloud can change its semblance, yet retain its will With the intimacy of destruction, One knows what it is to be alive The empty sky holds no reflection, for sorrow - Eslo Rudkey |

Re: The G.I. Joe Project
BTW, if you haven't seen the new Universo, he could be a dead ringer for Dr. Mindbender, right down to the monicle!

Re: The G.I. Joe Project
I look at Black Widow (170) and think she would handle herself quite well in the world of G.I. Joe. I would put her significantly ahead of the Baroness so maybe 140 or so for her. I see Destro as being able to deal with Black Widow on a more even level, so maybe 170-180 range for him. Cobra Commander (hood) seems like a younger Baron Von Strucker type of leader, perhaps 180-190. For the base Cobra Troopers, I'm thinking of making them a 4 figure squad that matches or slightly outpaces Hydra (80 points) so 80-90 points. Later Crimson Guards or Vipers can then be 3 figure squads on the SHIELD level (110 points). Snake Eyes & Stormshadow would not be outclassed by many hand to hand fighters, so 200+ points.

Re: The G.I. Joe Project
I'd argue that Red Skull is more similar to Cobra Commander. Major Bluud is similar to Baron Strucker. Destro is little bit Forge, a little bit Dr. Doom. Baroness is practically the same person as Madame Hydra aka Viper.
