Just another custom I put together with a spare Snake Eyes from a comic pack. I kinda liked the Cobra Mortal figure.
Let me tell you, Sliver really sucks to paint with. I have heard Yellow is the worst though. Let me know what you all think. Feedback is always appreciated as I am still new at this. Constructive criticism is good as well. I have to learn from somewhere. |

Looks great, though I guess the only thing that is keeping me from saying it's perfect is that you used that Snake Eyes v2 strap instead of the regular straps that came with Greenshirts, which is minor. Definitely rocks though!

not bad man. not so sure about the bandolier vs the LBE but paint apps are nice n clean. I too have made a mortal and also agree silver is a BITCH to work with. I have found that if you use Steel, which is a more flat base, as sort of a primer then go over it with a few coats of silver it makes it a lot easier to work with.

looks good. as for using metallics, I found gameworks makes the easier to use ones.
Yellow is the toughest because it holds more pigment by nature which means it's altered very easily. |

Looking good!
Silver has been kind to me, red has actually been way more difficult, so I'm curious about what kind gave you such nice results without driving you crazy. Each yellow brush stroke is like tossing a nerf ball at a charging elephant. |

I've actually had trouble with red and silver both, but your Mortal came out looking pretty darn clean. I like the Duke strap too. Good job.

a good yellow is zinc yellow acryllic from model masters. i found that works exceptionally well over almost any other yellow i have used. and model masters is a brand i use most of the time.
