Weekend Warriors: March and April
 

Another month, another thread to avoid confusion:

March 4th - 6th: Crossovers
Could also just be off topic shots since that's pretty much how the theme used to go.

March 11th - 13th: Crayons
Because you all asked for it, next week we do Crayon backgrounds. So get to scribbling!

March 18th - 20th: Extreme Conditions
The worst places to be caught in, hot deserts, cold climates, any sort of not so fun places to be. Joes and Cobras go there.

March 25th - 27th: Leaders
Doesn't have to be Duke, Hawk or Cobra Commander, but make sure they're leading at least!

April 1st - 3rd: Customs
LBC's or painted figures, but preferably in a dio setting.

April 8th - 10th: Bad Figure Challenge
Make a really bad figure look cool. Golobulus, Toxo-Zombie, etc. The worse the better.

April 15th - 17th: 90's Guys with Mustaches and Fruit, Dancing to Music while Dodging Enemy Bullets and Still Having a Good Old Time
Just wondering how long it'll take someone to notice...

April 22nd - 24th: Ninja Nonsense
Dang those wacky ninjas, they're at it again!

The rest are left open for more suggestions. Old suggestions or seconding suggestions is okay too!

Since I'm relatively new to Joedios I'm sure these have already been addressed. Aerial shots or shots of aircraft. Another one could be Joes in extreme weather, blistering heat, rain, snow. Just a couple of thoughts.

Aerial shots sounds good. Maybe a color thing or theme, like green camo figures, gray camo, etc. Maybe something fun, like a background that has to be done in crayon :)

Ohhh Snickum Snaze!!! I would let my kids do mine!!!
Speaking of kids how about that? A let the kids do a shot weekend? If you dont have kids then use a relative or kids from the neighborhood, etc.

Stuck the new thread, unstuck the old one.

Keep up the great work, Nekoman.

I like Dan-O's ideas with a color theme and the crayon backdrop would be a fun idea too. SIC's idea with the kids sound fun, my daughter has her own camera and takes pictures with her Barbies. She can cook up some pretty cool ideas.

How about a Then and Now theme? Vintage figures (or even Anniversary versions) alongside their RoC/PoC/Resolute updates?

I second that.

I'm diggin the crayon background idea!

Thats 4 votes for dancontrino's idea. Lets make it happen!!!

Crossovers?! =D

CrossDressers!!

Thanks Hardball!

Added two new themes but still couldn't make up my mind on the last one of March. :)

I believe you started that one already...and it is turning out to be fantastic! It has given me an idea or two...

ugh. there just aren't enough hours in the weekend. I had a great idea for this weekend too. i'll probably still post it anyway if i ever find time take pictures.

That should be a theme too. haha.

Hmm .. crayons? .. Do I have crayons? I thing I do!

sign me up for the extreme conditions one :)

Neko, last weekend of March hiss around the corner and is still empty.

Bah! I totally forgot about it, sorry guys! :( I'll briefly throw up one for this weekend and next. Keep throwing out suggestions guys!

Thanks for reminding me Rambo.

custom props
casualties (significant or dramatic or maybe also fun ones like funny accidents)
comic book covers (remakes with or customs with real joes)

Theme ideas:

Accessories
Show off your favorite accessories in use.

War Crimes
Let's see why Cobra are the bad guys. Or maybe the Joes have crossed the line.

Special Effects

Animals

Spys
Covert and intelligence characters.

Bad Figure Challenge
Make a really bad figure look cool. Golobulus, Toxo-Zombie, etc. The worse the better.

Vehicles & Drivers

Last Stand
There's no hope, the only option is to go down fighting.

Science Experiments

Great suggestions TOD, I really like the Bad Figure Challenge and I might come back for a few more of these later!

I'm going to photo-edit some fruit into my daughter's Tiger Paw party pict for this weekend. I might be the only one who posts, though... :D

A 90's guy with a 'stache can't be hard to find. But I don't think I've got some Joe scale fruit lying around...

I'm pumped about this week's theme!

Son of a .. ! wish I took a look at this weekend's WW earlier.

Ninja Nonsence?! .. hmmm I'll see what I can come up with

some theme ideas
 

I think we should do one weekend as a "Historic theme"
Pictures that look like real, and are from different wars like
Civil War
World War 1
World War 2
Korea
Vietnam
Iraq war
Operation Iraqi Freedom
ect.

Maybe a different weekend do a 12in GI Joe theme, where the pictures only use 12in GI Joes.

let me know what u guys think :)

I'm in!
