Many thanks to all
. I saw this elephant cheap in a stationery, and bought all the set, and thought about ways of making the elephant fit into the GI Joe collection, and there was none better than that
.
STLjoe, I posted them in my blog and in a defunct spanish forum (casa slaughter) which got erased sadly. So I thought of sharing it again, for posterity and for all to see
.
I bring you more, these made in 2009;
Here is my custom Tunnel Viper, inspired by some customizers which used parts of a Lanard figure. I thoguht of recreating that, but sculpting myself and using VvV parts. I presented this custom in a sort of dio story, for a spanish forum, so I will translate every caption;
-Here is a day in the life of the Tunnel Viper. Early in the morning, he does a recon to make sure no enemies are in the zone and he goes to the tunnel...
-Once arrived, he leaves his heavy equipment and he begins continuing the tunnel perforation...
-Once he's taken the transpenetrator that he had previously camouflaged, he proceeds to perforate to create a gallery to hide Cobra material.
Once the main perforation has finished, he takes out his protections (vital to protect him from rocks and other debris that comes forth) and he takes his due rest...
Once rested, he starts one of the most important phases of the tunnel creation; obstacle demolition. He gets his backpack full of explosives, and fits his protective gear, (important if it explodes before time) and he proceeds to do a few controlled demolitions...
At last, after 5 hours of intense work, our friend Tunnel Viper comes out of the tunnel. He's exhausted, but he still needs to find wood to make support beams, and leaves and branches to cover the tunnel entrance.
The Tunnel Viper leaves the transpenetrator in the entrance with lots of care, as if it gets damaged or captured by the enemy, it would be discounted from his meager salary.
The Tunnel Viper is satisfied with his work ¡he does not want that any boy scout/GI Joe/forest ranger or squirrel finds the tunnel!
Finally, after a hard work's day, he returns to the secret bunker that acts as base.
Here is the Tele Viper Commander, and old concept I came up back in 2009. Following the fashion of the Crimson Guard Commander, or others, I thought Tele Vipers needed a commander and special trooper.[/url]
Here is the HAVOC flying vehicle modified with more firepower and a desert camo, named Desert Wind, with a repaint of Skidmark as pilot, named Stormriser.
Here is El Coyote, a Sierra Gordo recruit. This is a recombination using parts of Bazooka, Armadillo and Sgt. Slaughter.
This is a simple repaint to make Lady Jaye more cartoony, more palatable, although I am not very convinced by it.
