Hey guys!
Undertow was one of my favorite characters, even though they are limited to underwater operations only. When the 25th anniversary figures started to pop up, i was eagerly hoping for an update of him, but alas, it never came. And the collector's club version disappointed me to say the least. So i challenged myself to make the best version i could come up with; using resin casts from the original were a must to make him as true to the original as possible. The mask from the original was way too small so i had to sculpt one from scratch, and this was the final result. Hope you like it!

This is great. I really wish the club at the very least used the chest piece from the original Undertow.
Great job.

Thanks man.
While making this guy i realized that the Ultimate Snake Eyes' body works better as a wet suit than the Retaliation version that Hasbro keeps on using for the frogmen. Wish Hasbro could fix that

Way better than Hasbro's version, particularly with the chest piece!
