Here I show you another custom of a unproduced figure, in this case one of the cobra Lava patrol character : Kizimen.
If you don't know about the lava patrol here is a link. http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...-squadron.html I choose that name after a famous volcano in kamchatka Russia as i though It was ideal for him. The most innovative thing about this custom is that I chromed the upper torso and arms for the first time in a Gi Joe custom with very good results in my opinion (before I chromed with another method but the result wasn't so good). The weapon was made out of a piece of myth cloth weaponry (I like to use parts & weapons of other collections I collect ) modified with epoxi and the backpack god knows from were it came. In the last pic you can see alot of wips of my customs including kizimen (the fifth in the bottom row) More pics here: The Cobra Factor: Lava Squadron Kizimen Unproduced Gi Joe Cobra figure unreleased vintage 80s custom Hope you like it.

I actually blown by your customs. I am a more ARAH-lover fan and with the sketches and talking about this sub-team, this is just supercool to see what could have been. Very impressive.
