I like her better without the vest, too. You can't really tell she's a girl, with it on. That's fairly realistic, though. Those big bulky vests tend to do that.
If you got a hobby shop nearby, you can get some chrome Monokote. If they've got the trim strips, you can get them fairly cheap. The full size rolls cost a bit more. You've got to stretch it a little, to get it to sit flat, on the Viper's face plate. A heat source helps for that. It's easier than tracking down chrome Viper heads, and a little more durable than Hasbro's vac metal plating. Here's a refference pic, with a BAT, Viper, and a Cobra Comander I had to rechome with the stuff, along with a factory chromed Destro. Quote:

Nice job and great use of that body! I did the same wit my extras wit the first mold about a year & 1/2 ago. Sold/traded them at the con to a dealer . I bet u can sell that one for a great $ too! Great paint apps right on the money!
I'm sold on it bein a female but, a pony tail out the back of the helmet or even a removable helmet would put this one as "sexy" lol. Again nice work! I painted them red to begin with but, Without any..... Texture on the inner leg kind of looks weird...? |

How does it look with just the viper legs on? Are the thighs to big? That would put her at the proper height, i mean, not to tall anyway.

the viper legs kind of give her Thunder Thighs... :( all I need is a Shock Wave belt and it covers up the hugeness of the thighs. Unfortunately I have yet to even see any resolute comic packs yet...

Any firefly wave 4 comic packs there? That is the same belt. In black too. It would match the vest.
