"I am new to customs, but I am loving every minute of it. Having always been a fan of the Cobra Snow Serpent I thought It was fitting to outfit and update them with some heavy rolling armor. It was a fresh out of the box 30th anniversary crimson H.I.S.S. that had been collecting dust, now in my opinion its ready to have its own diorama!"

I like it. I think it looks cool. You should take another pic with some Snow Serpents around it. I like how you did the black instead off all white as it helps break it up some.

Thanks for the feedback, as for the Serpents I cannot bring myself to open their packaging.

When it comes to customs, the only bad start is not trying. This looks nice and clean - keep it up!

I like it! I would make one suggestion and that is use some red Cobra symbols to really set it off.

I think your completely right, that would of gave me even more of the contrast I was looking for.

Very good work! If you can't bring yourself to open up any Snow Serpents, you should pick up an Arctic Assault Squad set. You can always repackage them.

This is your first time at bat?

You're a natural. That is one stylin' Hiss.

I have the brown version of this tank, and as much as I love the design I find the color scheme...off. I think I might take a stab at a custom seeing how well yours turned out. Thanks for the inspiration.

Thanks for the kind words, I think the white does justice to all the lines from the mold that were lost with the crimson or the brown color schemes.

Oh yeah - the new HISS is eminently customizable! I'm waiting for the Crimson HISS to hit ROSS at markdown to pick up a couple more.
