Sunbow Inspired Storm Shadow Unmasked

This is my most recent Custom...Storm Shadow as he appeared in the GI JOE sunbow Cartoon Series and in the comic book(see silent interlude half way through for his sleeveless outfit). I used a Xamot head for his unmasked version and its only tenative till i find a more asian looking head that i can use but for now Its his head.

Nice customs! I considered doing this with the various extra Storm Shadow's that tend to turn up. I'm not a huge fan of the Crimson Twins, so I would be ok with chopping them up for parts eventually.

Curious: How did you separate the torso to get those arms on? I find it's hard to crack open the ninja torsos...

Paint the hair black and you have a winner.

Still All in all this is probably my fave joe i have done next to my Starduster and Steel Birgade Trooper. I have also included A shot of all my customs i have left.
They are the following;Adventure Team Adventure Buggy and Driver(I call him Top Gear)
Covert ops duke( from the cover of the Image GI joe series issue number 5 when the joe comic was restarted)
Unmasked battle wounds snake eyes and timber 2
Steel Bridgade Trooper
Cobra Mortal
White Cobra Mortal
Red Laser
Barrell Roll
Star Duster

Except for Barrell Roll and Storm Shadow I would be open to trades for some of these if anyone is interested.
hello what would u want for red laser and white mortal send me a pm

AMAZING SS!!!! What arms did you use? I have been wanting a sleeveless SS for way too long. Your other customs are very original. I though I was the only one with a Cobra Mortal.

I used the Tomax/Xamot arms and the fron hands of the comic pack SS. Had to nip the front of the pegs on the forearms so the wrapped SS hand fit perfectly but all in all i think it worked. Will be painting his unmasked head's hair black soon as i can get the proper paints :> Thanks for the Comments all.
