Previously, I talked about basing up the A.C.R.M. from Final Faction.

Now I've moved on to Sgt. Ruck, as featured in the video above.

Sgt. Ruck

Above is the action figure as seen in our original Profiles article. The figure itself is OK, but the separate gun and backpack are pretty basic.

Sgt Ruck

I primed the gun and backpack with a plastic-compatible black primer, then drybrushed them with metallic paint.

Sgt Ruck

I used a silver Sharpie to add some highlights to the gun and backpack.

Sgt Ruck

Then, as with the previous figure, I attached it to a flocked wooden base.

Sgt Ruck

Everything was sealed with matte clearcoat spray, which also negates some of the 'plastic-y' look of the toy.

Next time, another figure!
