I still need to go back and sticker my first few customs I did a month or so back, but I've picked up a few more ARAH vehicles to work on as ideas have popped into my head.

I'm almost done working on my Cobra A.P.C. transport. Need to add some small color detail then apply the clear coat & label. Looking good so far...will make a great transport for the blueshirt Cobra troopers as well as the Vipers.

Next project will be for a Viper themed Maggott. Always loved the Maggott, but hated the muted blue and yellow. Just got it in today's mail so I've got to get all of the sticker residue removed first.

I've also been kicking around the idea of customizing a near complete Hammerhead I picked up on eBay a few months ago. Like the Maggott, I hate the colors and would love to mix it up a bit, but I'm not sure what I'd do to the yellow tinted canopies. I could paint them solid, but wouldn't take look odd?

Well anyhow, I've got a lot on my plate at the moment but I'll make sure to update the thread w/ pics as they become available. Back to work now...

Wow, sounds like a lot is in the works, FW!

Dude, turn the Hammerhead in to a Python Patrol vehicle...that way, you can utilize the yellow canopies :D

Python Patrol...never thought of that before. Good idea C.I.A.D. - now to look at some past PP vehicles for a little inspiration.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that someone tried using clear plastic wrap to cover colored canopies in. I wonder if that worked? I had an idea to turn the whole Hammerhead into a Operation: Anaconda theme, but if I put blue wrap over the yellow canopies, wouldn't they turn out greenish?
