Sigma 6 Viper

[Razerwire]

In the process of making a Viper. Got the idea from DevilzFan. :D

I'm using Sigma Strike Duke's head and helmet and Lockdown's body. Gonna give him all of Lockdown's accessories minus the handcuffs and EMP ram.

So far I've painted the helmet and faceplate, lower arms, lower legs, and head. Still need to do the torso, upper arms, upper legs, and put a matte varnish on it.

Update!

Primed and painted the first coat on the front torso, upper arms, and upper legs. Still need to do the back.

I had your thread bookmarked on JBL just so I could follow it. Thanks for branching out. Appreciated.

Update!

Put him all together. Now I just need to give him a final coat of varnish. I also need to remove the SWAT from the shield that Lockdown had and give it to the Viper.

sweet man!

my version: exactly like that, but the gloves all red and the forearms flesh-colored. maybe a small COBRA emblem on the chest...then it would be perfecto!

[Obiwanjacoby]

I wanna run out and make one of those too.

It's not often that the same "recipe" floats across some (4-5?) different Joe forums! :D

I said it before (with DevilFanz), I'll say it again...

SWEET JEEBUS! I WANT 6 OF THOSE! :D

Update:

Removed the paint on the forearms and did a basecoat on the shield. Ideally I want to put a huge Cobra emblem on the front.

Update!

Painted the weapons and put on the final coat of varnish on everything. Just need it to cure before putting all the gear on.

Wonder which of the S6 weapons most closely resemble the '86 Viper rifle?

-PJThere are some other branded rifles out there that come very close. I just haven't been able to find any.

Had to revisit this figure. Got a rifle from the Ultra Corps figure which I gave to the Viper:

VERY nice. Now how come Hasbro couldn't do that themselves? We got lots of Joes, but got shorted on Cobra characters.

Update!

Hurray for Reprolabels!
