Ever since the OG Ice-Viper was released back in 1987 with the Cobra W.O.L.F. he has been one of my favorites. Since we are getting a ROC movie line figure that looks nothing like the OG Ice-Viper, I started to make my own. This one is the Ice-Viper Officer and will be the leader of my squad of 8 to 10 custom Ice-Vipers once they are finished. I styled him after the Moth Arctic set Ice-Viper with the grey camo and blue mask/webgear. The regular Ice-Vipers will have the red mask and the light tan webgear like the oG ones had.
Ice-Viper Officer Recipe : Head - Armored Cobra Commander (single carded version, not comic pack) Upper Torso - Arctic Snake Eyes(modded, shaved off front pockets) Lower Torso - Arctic Snake Eyes Upper Arms - Arctic Snake Eyes(modded right arm, shaved off pocket) Lower Arms/Elbows/Hands - Arctic Snake Eyes Upper Legs - Arctic Snake Eyes Lower Legs/Knees/Feet - Arctic Snake Eyes Helmet - Cobra Air-Trooper(modded, cut off "gas mask" piece) Goggle Strap - Green Stuff Fur around Neck - Snow Serpent(modded, cut off shoulder pieces) Fur around Gloves - Green Stuff Fur around Boots - Green Stuff Webgear - Green Stuff Upper Arm Plates - Vintage Ice-Viper(dremeled off & green stuffed on) Thigh Plates/Sai Holders - Vintage Ice-Viper(dremeled off & green stuffed on) Sais - Vintage Ice-Viper Double Belt Setup - Green Stuff Belt Buckle - Vintage Ice-Viper(dremeled off) Spiked Shoes - Arctic Snake Eyes Paints Used : ColorPlace Flat Grey Primer ColorPlace Flat White Tamiya Flat White (XF-2) Tamiya Flat Light Grey (XF-66) Tamiya Sky Blue (X-14) Tamiya Gold Leaf (X-12) Tamiya Flat Brown (XF-10) Testors Model Master Flat Black

Thanks for the encouragement, keeps me busy. The only down side to adding the green stuff is that his legs and torso are thicker and wider than before, now he won't fit in the drivers cockpit in the W.O.L.F.
Maybe have to make the green stuff parts much smaller for the regular Ice-Vipers so they can fit in the drivers cockpits. I know that 25th Crimson Guards & Cobra Troopers WILL fit in the drivers cockpit of a vintage Cobra W.O.L.F. and allow the canopy to be shut completely.
