Just a little mod of those Ret. Night Vipers. I wanted an improved vintage version of one of my favorites Cobras of all time. What do you think?

Thanks for the comments.
Thighs, backpack & rifle are from vintage NVs. Harness is from Raginspoon. I applied some paint here and there. Knees are from Snake Eyes v43. I hope to do more of this army. |

My favorite specialty Viper. I had upgraded using Raginspoon's webgear and ARAH backpack cast as well as picking up the vintage rifle - but never thought of changing the upper legs. Great job.

Thanks everyone for the comments. It took me some days to make them as I thought the way should be a modernized vintage style looking of the awesome Night Viper troop.

Dang, you really took the extra step there. I only switched out the webgear on my Retaliation NVs by giving them ROC SE's(a pic of it is in the "Easy Kitbashes" thread). Great job.

I approve - how much are you selling them for?

Thanks Night_Viper_143. I didn't have in mind to sell one or all but what I can do its more of them for sale. I still have four NV figures to customize. Don't have idea for how much but think that $50/each + shipping its worth the material, time and job.
