I originally made this guy somewhere about 3 or so years ago. Was among my first. I started on a full run of armor concept Sinister Six characters, but only made it four in. My favorite of the batch was Scorpion. I liked how the tentacles were attached to Doc Ock in Spiderman 2 and how Whiplash used a harness for his whips in Iron Man 2. So, I adapted the concept and used it for Scorpion, one of my top favorites of Spiderman's villains.
The detail work on this figure was a bit too complex for me just starting out, so the original paint work was quite sloppy. The pictures just failed to show it. So, I went back and redid the armor so it held a better, more even shine. I updated the flesh tone so it didn't look so pale with better applications to cover up Whiplash's tattoos better. Recipe: Body & Tail - Iron Man 2 Whiplash Lower Legs - Iron Man 2 Comic War Machine Head - not sure

Really really like it. It's visual appealing and just so cool. One question how did you switch the lower legs out?

Thanks. Just heated it and pulled them off. Actually, now that I think about it, the upper legs are WO movie Sabretooth. That's right. The pegs on Whiplash were too small, I think. So, I put those upper legs on there and it worked better to fit the War Machine knees and lower legs. But yeah, just a heat gun.

Thanks for the info. It turned out really great. The head looks like the prisoner Obi-Wan head from a SW comic pack.

Ah, yes, I looked and that's it. Thank you. I've been trying to figure that out since I first made him.

Looks awesome. The only thing I'd change is the tail placement. I'd drill a hole at the base of his spine and mount the tail there.
