Made this for a contest where you had to make an ultimate Snake Eyes.
I can totally imagine people seeing this in a SE contest and think: "Uhm, what am I looking at here? What was he thinking?" I certainly wouldn't vote on it myself when the goal was to make an ultimate SE, hahaha!
I know this is a pretty strange entry, but I challenged myself to go for the alternative route with SE. Brainstorming of what I would make took me a lot of time. Then all of the sudden I thought of what I could do taking that code name literally, something with real snake camouflage. Going through my parts bin I found the Pythona parts and those weird round spots on her body might just make good eyes. Next I had to find a suitable head, because the Pythona head was already saved for a different project. It had to be a strange head as well, to make it fit with the extraordinary body. The one from Predator was laying around for a long time, but was now alien enough to serve as an alternative SE. I just had to paint it in a way so it wouldn't look too obvious as a Predator.
Painting all those snake eyes was a real pain with that cursed yellow and the surface of the Pythona parts was pretty rough in some spots. These kind of eyes do exist in real life with a certain snake species.
For a background story I still haven't figured out yet how she would fit in the G.I.Joe verse. I guess this could be a new addition to Cobra La, an alien fighter recruited by Golobulus who has strange new weapons and an unseen camouflage suit.
What do you think?
