Hello again everyone!
Here is another custom that has recently been finished. This one is from my Cobra Re-color project, were I attempt to organize the various troops types with cohesive color schemes and get rid of all the neon and garrish non-Cobra color schemes. This Aero-Viper shares the color scheme with Strato-Viper and Vapor, as will most other Cobra pilots within this project. I didn't have a spare helmet for this figure so instead of finding a replacement I opted to cast a new one from resin. I always thought the head beneath the helmet was goofy, so I didn't bother making a removable helmet and just cast the entire thing as one piece. The end result was an Aero-Viper helmet with a neck joint. A couple of shots of the freshly cast replacement head. Aero-Viper front and rear, and a comparison shot with Strato-Viper Let me know what you think. If you want to see more, the pic in my signature will take you to my customs gallery. |

Holy shit, that looks awesome! If I hadn't known I would have thought this was a factory figure.
I also really like the idea of bringing some cohesiveness to the Cobra ranks per their military functions. Very well done and the paint apps are perfect. |

Great job, NetViper X! You're doing exactly what should have been done by Hasbro over the past ten years. So many of the ARAH molds were great and simply suffered from horrible color choices. After work, I'll look at the rest of your recolors (Firefly and Ice Viper look good).
