Hey guys!
This version of ol' Shippy was one of my favorites way back in the 90's even though his color palette was a bit monotonous. So i wanted to play a little with two tones of gray as well as making a face swap with the Wet Suit head to keep up with the facesculpt of Shippy that Hasbro has been using lately and get the hood on him somehow. Anyway, hope you like it!

Face swaps can be tricky and you did a great job! It looks perfect. Good call on the two-tone grey, it really makes the details pop.
I'm planning on making a diver Shipwreck, myself, but I'm waiting for the solid grey Tech Ops MTF figure to come out to use it as a base figure. I'm lazy and refuse to paint things.

That was one of the last ARAH figures that I really liked, and you nailed the update on it. That head looks amazing. I think I would have been really lazy and just used a Snow Job head and called it a day!
