The last in my series of three Snake-eyes custom could be no less than a reimagined v2 1985. In my older age I just can't get over the fact that he is wearing a superhero style spandex suit, and that the offerings Hasbro have given us are either too muscular, or too scrawny. I hope this version corrects that.
I attempted to make this a study in the subtlety of blacks using flat black and aircraft interior black, however the two colors didn't give enough of a difference for the armored torso and fabric arms and legs. I ended up using gun metal to color the leather looking armor on the torso, and then the flat black for the arms and legs and lower torso. All paints are Testors Model Master acrylics. Head is from the Retaliation movie accurate SE. Torso is from the alternate Retaliation SE. As are the legs. Arms, belt, and bandolier are from the Ultimate SE. Sword was created from different custom molded pieces available from online retailers. I actually made the sword a few years back.

I like everything but those knees, they never fully extend. Regardless, he is a Snake Eyes I would be proud to own.
