Back in 1997 I was really into Quake. I loved to play it and create custom skins for it. I wasn’t the best skinner out there… but I enjoyed some notoriety in the community. I did several skins for Quake… my Elvis skin was requested for the Omicron Bot Project… one of the most popular bot addons in the day. But my first skin was what you see here… Good old Buzz Lightyear.

The original graphic is much smaller and didn’t have any green. I used colors that allowed the player to change what would be green into any color they wanted. So I modified this original a bit just to make it look right.

Note that I apparently never finished his backside.
