I think the original Tele-Viper is an okay figure, but the head/helmet is too big and the face looks kinda goofy. I'm also disappointed the scanner doesn't have a gibbous end (like a lens) like you see on the card art. I challenged myself to repaint Tele-Viper in a way to make him look at least a bit better than the original.
I came up with this colour scheme imagining the Tele-Vipers would go on a recon mission sometimes too. At night to be specific. That requires a different scheme on his uniform, with at least some black in it. The rest just looked right with the black.
It's not a complete "repaint only" as you may have noticed. I changed his visor by adding a small piece of wire to it, so I cheated a little.
Let me know that you think of it.
