Badass. I think the big thing is his head though.

I'm making a Muton myself, but going in a whole 'nother direction. :-)

Hi nice work, I always think of :muton: as resembling a 70's style Dr Who type monster...so an Actor in a costume makes a lot of sense to me personally, kind of like a behind the scenes photo.

However, if you really want to keep it real to the :AFLogo: background story may I suggest a bunch of wiring inside the helmet..or something that looks like Masker-tron or the Fembots, with the human masks removed, from the 70's Bionic Man T.V. shows?

Or if you want modern how about a Terminator type head..or even a :skeletron: under the helmet?

The SW BAD YVH 1 head might be cool. I have a load cast if you need one.

Nicely done I like the head you used and the idea of Muton as a person. In BAF the Muton is meant to be a robot like Cobra's BAT but was developed years before the BAT was.

Great custom, i think a bat head would look cool under that helmet.

This is great. Muton meets Robocop (or the Cybermen, keeping with T-Shot's Dr Who theme). That's the terrible secret behind the Muton - they are made using captured AF troops.

It's that whole 'Man in a Divers Suit' with Herman Munster style platform boots.... :muton: just looks like an early Dr Who monster to me.
