I was watching this the other day, and I thought... Hey I could make me a custom Sisko in Capts Vest!

So....

Here it is!

I realized after the fact that sisko wasn't wearing his comm badge in that outfit... so...

I think this is more screen accurate!


You can see it in these screen caps from Trekcore.com!

Hmmm... I could take the tunic color back a bit darker... do you think that would help? I was trying to dry brush it to make the lines pop a bit more....

If you did the dry-brushing technique bit more where the combadge was it would help I think . It looks a bit bland as is .

I don't think anyone should have ever worn that outfit but Captain Picard. It looked so perfect on him, like it was custom-made for him and therefore belonged on and looked cool on him and nobody else. I hated seeing it on Sisko. I feel the same about Kirk's wraparound tunic, although I thought it was fun when Archer wore it on one "Enterprise" episode. Nonetheless, if there could ever be a figure of Sisko wearing that uniform he wrongfully ripped off from Picard tongue.gif, I can't imagine it looking much better than Gothneo's rendering, so nice job, chum. biggrin.gif

So, I took the good commanders advice and touched up the vest a bit more. I can see what your saying, the area where the comm badge used to be was pretty monotoned. I think this looks much better now!

Man, I wish I had you guys talents, not to mention patience laugh.gif Nicely done, and I personally loved it when the Captain's wore something out of the normal duty uniform. I loved it when Kirk had the green wrap around, he just seemed more heroic when he wore it smile.gif

Took a shot of all three of my Sisko's together!

Thought I'd share!

Scale isn't really that off on the Rapture Sisko.

Very nice, he also wore this variation on "In the Pale Moonlight" while he is recording his captain's log . One of my favorite episodes of DS9 , showing that sometimes desprerate times call for desperate measures. Even though he got Garak to do the dirty work for him lol

Yes he did! Which is why I thought it a nice variation to have! Though in that episode he wore it open, so that's why I decided this would be a "Rapture" Sisko!

hey... neat! When I saw the first shot, I'd admit I thought the Picard base was going to be too tall, but you made it work great! REALLY nicely done!

Man, I miss DS9 something fierce...

It does look nice. I was worried the oversized Picard body would look bad with the undersized Sisko head (I think DST mixed up the measurements for those two) but it turned out nice. I realy like the way the extra paint apps you did make it pop. I have often thought about swapping out Worfs legs and Head to do a Worf custom in this look. He was seen that way a couple of times on the show.
