Hey guys..
FLAK Viper is not a character I see made often, in part I think, because he belongs to the bright Battle Corps era... and also because I don't think there's much parts available to do it... Since I don't mind some accommodation and didn't know what to do with the Clone Trooper helmet that would not look like too much like Clone Trooper in different collors... I started cutting the helmet. The legs where from a Arctic RoC Snake Eyes that I didn't know what to do with it... Then I looked to a FLAK Viper and thought ... those big pants could work for some kind of heat/fire resistant suit for a guy who fires rockets from it's back. I think the rest fell in place too... and that big f. gun that comes with the awesome Jungle Viper could serve as second weapon for him to take down small aircraft.

Well enjoy if you can and let me know what you think about this one...

That looks really cool! and on the chubby comment could also be
a good base to make a good Sneek Peek custom.

Tks man... I don't think it looks chubby... bulky maybe is a protection vest...
But the idea of using Duke's body armor is really good and maybe I will do it!

That wasn't meant to be negative. I also think all arctic figures and lowlight appear chubby its just the bulkyness. It is a fine Flak Viper custom and really close to the original. I really like the helmet though.

Cool take on a cool trooper. I've been wanting to make one, but don't really have good parts. Their torsos are especially difficult to match if you don't want to do a bunch of sculpting. I think I may do something like this now and just use spare parts I have. That's what I did with my Frag Viper.

Glad to be a little inspiring :-)
I think we should beyond the ARAH versions and go with new ideas!
I love me those ARAH desings though hehe

I really like it! The modification to the clone trooper helmet was a great idea for an updated look! Great work!
