Ok we all know hasbro has alot of hits and misses. The Night Adder is a perfect combination of them both. While using the well scuplted Resolute Roadblock body, he sports a very lame Ice Viper Helmet. Leaving this guy needing a check up from the neck up. The head is from a Lanard Corps figure found at Walmart. Im not to sure of my painting skill and I do want the skintone in the face to match the body. Any really great painters/customizers looking for commission work please feel free to private message me.

skin tone on the face doesn't match his body though. at first, i thought he was wearing a skin tight shirt but when you take off the vest, he has nipples. Hasbro sure chose a dark skin tone. this custom looks hot though.

Bah, don't pay someone else to do it.
This is an easy custom and a good one to get your feet wet. Get yourself a bottle of Testors Acrylic Paint (Rubber #1183) and a very fine brush (the tip should be very pointy, like a pencil). The paint will run you about a buck and a half, while the brush will be around two or three dollars. Practice on a junk figure before doing your good one. I promise you, you'll be amazed at how easy it is and you'll enjoy the figure much more because you made it yourself... If you really, absolutely, positively can't do it, then send me the figure and I'll paint it for free, as long as you cover the postage... |

Yeah, why pay someone else when it's a learning opportunity and gives you the potential to make a lot more quality figures/vehicles without having to wait for Hasbro's botched attempts.

Omg, that's Justin Case from the Corps! (no joke...he's called like that lol)
Good choice, imho. It has that commando vibe the Ice viper head lacks. I used a corps! head on Bench press, they match really well because the size of the torso. This! Also, as someone else says, you can try on some fodder. Even if you don't have fodder, acrilic can be easily removed with water, soap and a toothbrush, without damaging the original paint at all.
