View Full Version : Custom Cobra boat (need name!!!) WIP
I started this quite awhile ago with the intent of using it as a compact, high speed landing/assault boat for a two man Eel team. I have yet to find any reasonably priced Eels so I used a couple Vipers to stand in. I am waiting for stickers to arrive which among others includes a display screen for the moniter on the drivers right which is used as a moniter for the missle system. I also want to add some webbing to secure the cargo/eqiupment on either side of the boat. I think I might paint the non-armored sides of the boat grey to distiguish it as made of a different material, probably a rubber encased foam or something else that can be shot and still float. Then stickers and I'll be done, except for a name. Just wanted some input and ideas before I got to the final stages. Thanx for lookin'.

Turn that ammo pack 90 degrees and make that ammo belt shorter. Its a bit cheesy that long.

I'm thinking of a name, but i have to ask how did you get rid of the gun mount for that ridiculously big gun it originally had. I have one and I've been meaning to do something similar

Great paint job... Looking forward to seeing the finished piece.

Split the boat in half by removing the screws on the bottom, dremel out the base of the superduper gun, make a template of the floorboard of the boat, trace it out on a thin but fairly stiff piece of plastic and cut it out , super glue it into place on top of the existing floorboard, accessorize as you see fit, show me pic's of what you did to the cheesey corp superduper gun raft. Wow that's a huge sentence, whoop's. This boat is so cheap and cheesy it's hard to not want to do something to it.

Cobra Keelback?
There's a snake called a Keelback:
Xenochrophis piscator - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenochrophis_piscator)
The other simpler (and more common) water snake names are taken by the other Cobra boats already.

Elite Night Landing-looks good.
I suppose, if it were bigger, Leviathan would be cool.
