My first Custom Hiss became what I like to call the
---Cold Weather Enforcer Hiss--- Unit 105 was first deployed against G.I. Joe Forces in late October. With her detailed cold weather camouflage she sneaks and slithers through the cold. 105's commander is Lt. Stin who is known for his bravery and personally destroying G.I. Joe Grizzleys and American M1A1 Abrams along with some joint British Challenger 2s. The 105 was my first Hiss Custom. I started it in late Aug just as HissTank.com announced the Hiss Custom contest. I wanted to do an extreme weather Hiss and a run of the mill arctic hiss was not unique enough. Thus, I used another form of cold weather camo and the 105 was born. I modified the tread wall in the front as well as added the round vent covers below the cockpit (see additional photos in next post). I individually drilled out the rivet holes for better detail. The paint work took about 6 hours and another 4 to weather and dirty it up. Thanks for looking. I hope my future Hiss customs will improve and blow this one out of the water.

Thanks for the kind words everyone. I was quite happy with how the paint came out. I spent so much time into the small details. I gonna put up my second entry here soon. Like I said this one was on my workbench when the contest started but the next one I designed and worked on exclusively for this contest. Hope everyone likes.....
