START AT POST #50/51 FOR NEW CUSTOMS PICS!
I've finally gotten off my lazy arse and taken pics of my most recently completed customs. Some of these were done over a couple hours and some of them were in the works for several weeks while I waited for the right parts to come in. Up first is my definitive version of Storm Shadow. It's nothing you haven't seen, but I thought I would post this as a warm-up to get your attention. Stay tuned, friends! Last edited by UMAN; 01-31-2009 at 01:14 AM.. |

My next guy was the end result of some leftover parts and the desire to add a different-looking guy to my Cobra cast. He became what I call an updated version of Cobra Ninja Viper - modern, equipped, badass.
Next up: Slice! |

Slice was always one of my favorite 90s characters. I loved him in the comic and was thrilled at his brief appearance in an episode of the cartoon. I didn't add the stars on his uniform (kinda silly) and went with a darker shade of red (take that, 90s!). Pretty much a straight repaint with a new head, but it works for me!
Bear with me, I'm editing these on photobucket as I post them! |

For my next couple customs, I decided to go with a motif among my Cobra demolitions squad. They'll have similar shielding as my Cobra de Aco, but with their own characteristics. Here's my Scrap-Iron (with flamethrower).
Next: Firefly! |

Like I said, he'll be uniformed similar to Scrap Iron and de Aco. My Firefly:
More on the way! |

I wasn't happy with any of the Major Bludds that came out. However, the POD version came the closest to my liking. I repainted his silver parts with some black to make a more definitive version of the Major.

Here's my take on Scarface and some Cobra Officers. I figure Scarface has probably been through some rough stuff in his time at Cobra, but they won't promote him to Viper status...

I did some changes to my Resolute Duke. Still not 100% done with him, but I hated those fugly legs they gave him and the hands weren't doing it for me either.

Last one - for now!
Here's my definitive version of Ace. Both the ones that Hasbro gave us sucked in their own special ways, so I took it upon myself to make something that says both 'pilot' and 'Joe.' The green on the helmet and boots doesn't contrast so differently on the figure-in-hand... flash does crazy things sometimes. Thanks for looking, and I hope you like them! Leave lots of comments or criticisms - the more the better!! Last edited by UMAN; 01-27-2009 at 10:07 PM.. |
