Some of you may remember a long while back when I posted a WIP for the second custom I ever started http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...rd-coming.html... and never finished... Until now that is. I worked on it here and there, when the mood struck me. The figure was pretty much complete for a while, but the helmet left me at a loss because I had no Idea what I was doing. I wanted to have something as close to the vintage Overlord helmet as possible, but I didn't have a spare and it would have been to small anyway, so I made an attempt at sculpting my own. I made a duplicate casting of a best of the 80's cobra trooper helmet did a bit of sculpting with greenstuff and did allot of careful dremel work. I'm pretty happy with the results and it fits really nice. Also did some sculpting for his scale armor on top, the square panels on his boots and legs and his scaly underpants... er... whatever that is down there. Hope you guys enjoy it.
Recipe Whole figure - cobra island mind bender modified with greenstuff shoulder pads - xamot/tomax pads dremeled down Helmet - best of the 80's trooper helmet modified w/ greenstuff Gear - Don't remember what the claw and sword are from.

I use nothing but reaper paints for all my matte and metallic colors. I personally love them. There's a huge selection of colors and you can get them in squeeze bottles or pots.

I found this googling, never saw it way back when, and just had to resurrect it by commenting on how I adore it!
