Its been almost two years ago since I first showed one of the custom figures (Trooper Toad) related to this project out here in the Battle Beasts area HERE. A custom figure done by PlasticPlayhouse that turned out so awesome I directly informed if he had time to make me a couple more customs. In the same line as that first figure I forwarded him the remaining Reptiles/Amphibians that can be found amongst the 76 Battle Beasts with the request to paint them up according to some references. A couple of months or maybe a year later 8 great figures returned and they turned out so well I wanted to do them even more justice so I contacted our well known and respected sketch artist Peter Hernandez with the request to transform these 8 Battle Beasts into a sketch version similar to the traditional Battle Beasts drawings which are present on the boxes and packaging. After having forwarded him some side views of each individual figure and a lot of discussions back and forth I received the final version of the sketch (digital) last month. With this artwork I hope I'll be able to honor both of these artists as well as an important message launching this project:

 

 

Earth Squad

 

 

These are the members of the Earth Squad and each one of these is a protector of the ecosystem in which they live and they are all asigned with individual qualities so that they can operate as a team to protect and restore the balance on our planet Earth as a team.

The whole project has been quite a challenge most probably for the artists themselves as well but as always its been a privilege for me to work with these great guys because without them I would not have been able to create such a project and add such awesome figures and artwork to my private collection so I'd like to thank them again because they both deserve all the honor and credits here;

This is a great project. I love it. I love when people take a custom project, and rather than just being a new color scheme for a figure, they develop a whole story around it. Just gives the customs that much more character to them.

 

Boy, this was a tough call for me though. The reptiles and amphibians are my favorite of the battle beasts. I could have easily chosen any of these guys. The snake would be an obvious choice for me. (I want Sergeant Snake for my army! Hahah) I also love the Inspector Iguana and Legatus Lizard a ton. But, I have to go with Commander Chameleon. Chameleon is still my favorite battle beast, has been for 25 years now. I had to vote for him. I am making a clan of different chameleon warriors, and this reminds me so much of what I would have done.

Great job everyone on this project. I love the results.

Thanks for the positive replies so far, its always good and interesting to receive some feedback from fellow collectors since I've to stay sharp as well ;)

But think this project is a promissing one for the future in which I'll probably have a few more projects running but these will be even more complex with more artists involved so as always it can take a while again before a new project will be presented.

 

For now just one more shot of the incredible Earth Squad!
