Been wanting to do one of these guys for a while, seen a lot of good ones out there.
I wanted a modern update but prefer a vinatge look for the most part, so I figured Id take the middle of the road approach and here we have it. recipe: ragin spoon - helmet, scope, visor, jungle viper- head low light- torso and arms ragin spoon- back pack, crotch armor was the face mask portion of a VvV snorkel and mask rig that i cut paper thin and fitted around the belt buckle, copper head- lower legs, trimmed off boot straps/blended fabric. custom silencer retainer added to holster. x3 loose grenades glued to other leg. renegade ripcord- feet duke- bandolier (trim pouch and grenade off), added renegade riprcord pouch and cobra trooper knife (angle for arah look). weapon is a chopped up starwars blaster rifle, with silencer retainer attached to a steel brigade rocket (chopped) to creat a surefire and mount. i also chopped up jungle dukes weapon mag and added it on, so his weapon now resembles the arah night viper weapon with a kick. paints: citadel goblin green and regal blue 2:1 chaos black, shinning gold, chainmail, (scope and light use blood red and skull white), paint and wash/shadow for effect.

I like the parts choice on the upper torso. Not to big of a fan of the copperhead legs. Overall looks really nice though.

well i wanted something that resembled the lines on on his arah legs (even if reversed) and could think of nothing else, you got a better lead? cause im all about upgrades. also tried to make a similar bomb (?) thing, for his left leg, it turned out GREAT but too big so i used grenades instead. if youre casting anything similar to whatever that leg thing is, i want one.

Love it...Tamiya makes a green that is the exact NV color though, would have loved to see you use that.

its actually a greywash applied to the entire figure, lighting in these pics doesnt really sell it, in person it delivers a whole other level of realism. Thanks...and glad to see ya FINALY joined the tank!
