I finally finished my 30th updates of the original 13 Joes this weekend with Snake Eyes and Scarlett.
Snake Eyes was a pretty easy update since the 30th version we got was pretty damn amazing. All I ended up doing was painting all of the gloss black parts flat black, painting over the logos on his arms, and cutting off the straps that hung to his knees. Simple, but effective. Parts: All 30th Snake Eyes The final figure I did was Scarlett. She was a real pain in the concept department. I really didn't know how the hell I was going to update her to a more realistic military look. In the end, I used the Renegades Scarlett body, as it is a more "real life" look with the Night Fox vest. I also went a different direction and used the Helix head. I'm pretty happy with how she turned out. Let me know what you think on both. Parts: Entire Body: Renegades Scarlett Vest: Ret Night Fox, modified Head: ROC Helix Vector gun: POC Dusty with Maruaders supressor Pistol and Holster: POC Hawk One shot of the lovebirds together.

The Helix head on Scarlett was a shock at first. But by the time I had scrolled through all of the pics it looked like it belonged there. Nice job on both.

That Scarlett is way too awesome!
I'm gonna have to "borrow" your idea.

Love that Scarlett! What did you modify on the vest to make it fit her better?

Thanks for the comments everyone.
If you take the vest off, there's a huge, bump, for lack of a better word on the inside that fits into a grove in Night Fox's chest. It makes it damn near impossible to fit on anyone except the skinniest of figures and that is after cutting it off.

I had to kind of force it down over her hips to make it sit lower on her shoulders. If you just put it on, it kind of sits above her hips and kind of "floats" above her shoulders. Just a little force and is sits lower on her hips and her shoulders. At least, that's how I got it to look tighter.
