Here I am in my Space Cadet uniform, which I made up for a couple of stage plays I was in - That's a metal Buck Rogers disintegrator gun from the early 30's in my hand.

It is great to have faces to go along with names, really great. So figure is only fair to add my mug shot. From a bit over 2 yrs ago whilst playing with some lighting kit at the local camera store. Odd, seems like forever ago for some reason.

Never fear Don, I would look like that if I wore the uniform.  I LOVE potato pancakes, Marmorkuchen, Kasekuchen, Streuselkuchen and other things I should stay away from!

Nothing ever fits……..and when it does, its the wrong scale.

If you had worn the helmet, I think it would be a pretty good likeness.

This is me with my dad at Camp Slayer in Iraq during his 61st birthday party. As you can see I caught him off guard and this picture is priceless in the fact that dad NEVER smiles this big for ANY picture. In my wildest dreams I never would have thought that we would end up together in a friggin war zone as a kid.(He's been in one already in years past. The guy is an ex Green Beret from 'Nam--see airborne tatoo on his L/H forearm).

After paging through the latest issue of FSM with the article about the Forum WWI GB, it was nice to attach real names to online monikers.  While reading the article, I thought it would be great to attach a face to those names, and then I come across this thread.  So here's a shot of my mug... don't look anything like my avatar...

Training for triathlons has been seriously cutting into my modeling time for the last few years.  This is me at the Longboat Key, FL Sprint Triathlon back in October.  Managed to finish 2nd in my age group (Men 60-64).  I'm in the triathlon off-season now, so am trying to get back into some serious modeling over the winter.

rommelkiste, What scale on the LHFP? I remember that tractor from your grass cutting yarn. Still think you need to add some markings to go with that gull gray paint....

Going to dog beach? Any time that we can ;-) But the water is so chilly at this time of year... Poor Chewy will freeze!!! Many thanks Chuck. I would just prefer that my "office" was a Chevy and not a Ford.

Nobody said no bums allowed so here is my pic.  Taken last spring while getting the Hoyt-Clagwell ready for duty.  I farm the old Haney Place in Podunkville USA.  If any of you have an extra Left-Handed Framis Pin for my Clagwell I could use it.

This was taken last September at Disney World.  We spent a week there utilizing the military discounts Disney offers.  Stayed at the Arts of Animation Resort and had a blast.  O.K., everyone can stop laughing now.  Embarrassed

Yes, there certainly are some new faces on here since the last time we did this.

Bish, those guys were definitely working on mobbing you. Good thing you survived that time ;-)

Tojo, I don't know how familiar you are with the local history there of your photo shot. But I am curious. I know that "They Were Expendable" was filmed in that general location. Is that lighthouse in the background the same one in the end of the film?

The movie was filmed in the Miami area,IMBD says the lighthouse is in Cape Florida State Park,and built in 1935

Hey Ken, I think this an outstanding idea. With that, here is a couple of pics of myself in all my glory. Oh, and just for further info I live in Moab, Utah.

It's always great to see the face behind the name.

For a better pic of me click here:

www.halfbreeds.net/MembersPhotos.html

Find and click on Iceman. That's me.

I belong to an online shooter game called The Halfbreeds - a Delta Force 2 online squad. Sadly, I have not played DF2/Delta Force Black Hawk Down for the last 5 years or so. I do keep in contact with my THB brothers and sisters though. Stik - you will find there are a couple guys in that squad who are in law enforcement as well - Bravo2Zero, Leeboy, and Mothra.
