Cobra Commander's Elite Royal Guard.
This is my 4th attempt at a custom. Enjoy. Update: The only thing that I'm not stoked on is the random hole in the middle torso. I really want to repaint something (gold) and maybe super glue it in the place of the hole. Any suggestions would be really appreciated. thx tankers. Parts Include: Head: 25th Flint (Cobra Disguise) Torso & Upper Arms: POC Alley Viper Officer Lower Arms: POC ROC Rex "The Dr" Lewis Upper Legs: 25th Snake Eyes Lower Legs & Knees: 25th Snake Eyes Accessories/Weapons: Hiss Tank Driver Staff Thanks for taking a gander.

Awesome custom! Do you brush on Acrylic paint or spray on Krylon? I did a repaint of the Rock Slide(go to my page if you hadn't seen it yet and check it out) with the spray on Krylon and it turned out great, but I'm not sure if I should use it for figs.

I use brush on Acrylic paint and that seems to work best for me painting figures. Your Rock Slide looks great I have not done a costum of a vehicle yet, but I can see where the spray on Krylon on would work like a champ.

i like it...
maybe for the center of chest a small yellow plastic fake "gem" or a small yellow plastic bead? the fake gem or the bead sorta suggests a royal nature...and story wise it could be something the character earns when they reach the royal guard status...like a badge of honor or some kinda status symbol. |

a gold lego coin would work as the centerpiece too, to hide that hole...
like these... http://thumbs1.ebaystatic.com/m/mdaA...udwtvg/140.jpg flip coin upside down to side without the currency denotation on it so it's flat and blank...and have that side showing....i think the coins only have currency stamped on one side... and again, story wise, it could be like a badge of honor they wear and earn when they've reach royal guard status. |

You could put a Cobra logo over the hole.
