Here's my version of the joe's own Samurai, Budo - or at least something like him (without worrying so much about looking like the vintage figure or exactly like a real Samurai). I kept the head bald because I wasn't sure that painted-on hair would look very good.
The recipe is fairly straightforward: new comic pack Storm Shadow body and most of the gear, Hard Master head, Storm Shadow (from Firefly comic pack) backpack and swords, and a Serpentor skirt-thingy. I modified the helmet with two blades from the Storm Shadow/Ninja Viper claw. Now I need to come up with a katana to hang at his side.

That's great!
How tight is the helmet? Could a little hair be sculpted on? By the way, I'm stealing this one when I get the parts!

It should have room for some hair, as long as it's not too big.

Very cool! Great use of the claws for the helmet. As for the katana you can mod the one that came with the Hard Master or make one using Obi-Shinobi's sword tutorial and the scabbard tutorial. The Hard Master's head works well for a lot of characters, especially if you add some hair. I'm using the skirt for some samurai type characters too.
