Another one for the SSS. These guys are pretty much updated and upgraded figures that we should have gotten. Less creativity and more exact updates of the original, this one this one was fairly simple other than tedious paint schemes . I happen to never really played with this figure back in the 80s but once I recreated it, I really like how he turned out. Here is Ferret:

That's legitimately awesome, shame we never go one from Hasbro.

Came out stunning! The paintwork really makes him shine!
I will say though, his name, along with Armadillo's and a few others', bugs me; they already gave the name to a vehicle, why reuse it for a character? I can almost give Ferret a pass though, since he's an IG, not a Cobra. |

Excellent update, totally cool. Am I seeing things or are his pants slightly metallic?

I think from beginning to finished maybe 2 hours. If that. Quote:
I did add a little drop of gold to the tan to give it a nice eye catching look. Honestly that’s my favorite thing about it. I suppose Because it’s a such a unique color.

Lookin' good! The pants caught my eye, too. Didn't know why, then I scrolled and saw the comments.

This is great! You took a somewhat mediocre figure/character and made it look awesome! I dig that torso from Angel Forge, and the arms from Retaliation Firefly work well with it; I am glad you chopped the hands and replaced them with the JoyToy ones! The MTF Contract Ops pants and the painted red boots were good choices, too. The head sculpt, which I believe is from Angel Forge also, but am not certain, is very true to the original Ferret's head/helmet sculpt, but seems somewhat less bulky than it was. The paint job shows an attention to detail, right down to the weathering and "scrapes" to the chest rig and belt. Nice one, Slice!
