Punisher: War Zone vest by Indy Magnoli

[GeneralFROSTY]

To all those interested, Indy Magnoli has agreed to do a Punisher War Zone vest replica. I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread for this item as input from you guys would be beneficial.
His price for the item is more than reasonable, however the buyer would be responsible for adding the skull logo.
You can PM him for details. Lets keep this thread open for construction progress and hammering out the details. When they are available for sale, we can start a new thread in the JY.

I never saw the movie can you post a pic here to see what it looks like? I have all the faith in the world he will put out a good piece. I've yet to be disappointed in his products.

I liked the vest from the Tom Jane movie better but this would sure be cool to see as well.

 

[GeneralFROSTY]

Im sure that if he is able to do the War Zone vest, a Thomas Jane version could be done - the design is not as complicated.
I can't post pics right now, so if someone else has some please post them.

Im sure there are better pics out there, but this was all i could find.

I got the Tom Jane version had it specially made, cant remember the name of the place that did them, modding a vest I saw on ebay in the airsoft section that looks close, had to cut pockets off of it, an add some straps, got the skull off a shirt and used mighty mendit to make it stay on. had tried to paint the skull on using fabric paints but it wouldnt show up.

I would be happy to grab any screen caps he might need. I am very interested in getting one.

Can we see some pics? I've been thinking about doing the same type of thing.

 

[wolverine solo]

heres the Tom Jane version, havent taken any of the war zone version Ive been working on just yet.

 

[bladefans]

Wow that looks great. Can you still remember which airsoft vest you used originally?

 

[wolverine solo]

the one shown is the one I had made for me, if you go on ebay and type airsoft vest then look for one that says SWAT TACTICAL vest thats the one I'm using, would post a link but we cant post live auctions.

 

[Indy Magnoli]

The pending price is $275 (shipped). We'll post pics here as soon as we have some...

Any other shots of the original would be greatly appreaciated (especially the back). Thanks and

Kind regards,
Indy

That would be sweet! I need to start dealing drugs or something to cover the costs of this hobby!

 

[Chicagovader]

Not a bad price, I will try and get screen caps of the back of the vest later tonight or tomorrow.

Noo, you don't. Because then Thomas Jane will come and kill you in some awesome, over-the-top way.

No he wont. He'll probably do something to annoy the living hell out of you like slash your tires or hide your keys. Ray Stevenson, on the other hand would probably stab you, shoot you in the head, burn you and blow you up all at the same time!:lol

 

[bxstrmn]

it is a good price, i may be interested in one a little later on.

 

[GeneralFROSTY]

It is a VERY great price indeed! The pics posted so far look great - anyone who can capture frames from the DVD to post here would be helpfull.
Also, if INDY would share pictures for what will be used for the materials I would love to see.

 

[Chicagovader]

Okay here are some screen caps of the back of the vest, let me know if any more are needed of anything *big pics*

Figure it wouldn't hurt to have a clear shot of the side as well

That's a ballistic vest with the kevlar/trauma plates removed and a funky collar installed on it.
You can see the MOLLE/PALS loops all over it and the drag handle on the back.
My friend Roger at Custom Tactical Creations makes vests like this for a living, all custom made to your specs, built for real world use too using genuine Cordura nylon.
Heavy duty stuff, might want to check him out.
