Okay, so those of you who frequent Figure Realm may have seen this before, but here goes...
Cobra Commander! Made from an Indy Colenel Vogel body with a Cairo Thug 2-pack head and then painted. Very, very simple. Put the parts together while playing around, and it just fit so perfectly. Then.... I did nothing with it for about a year. I even contemplated not painting int for a while (pictures of that available on my blog {click my siggy and look for update 'POCKETT'}) but I eventually got around to it. Then... I didn't post it for well over a month. I got sucked into the Kumite competition (it was a blast!), then had relatives come visit, then went to college, then, then, then... And so now here it is! In this first post, I have general pictures, and then in the next I'll have details and some origional concept sketches I worked up for my new Cobra logo, featured on the figure's armband! Hope you all like it, please comment, and if you want to know more about the figure, please visit figurerealm.com and look for Hrothmeir. Why, yes, I'm shameless, what of it? P.S. THe picure quality is pretty bad, I know. When I take pictures with the camera in regular mode, the colors are weird and the pictures are too dark. When I use manual mode, as here, I can get the colors and light right, but they get weirdly pixelated, with little color artifacts all through. I'm using some kind of small Canon, with four different incandecent lights on a white background. If anyone can help, please PM me. Thanks.

Okay, here's some more: Torso details The little ascotty thing under the hood And finally the logo. To the left is the actual logo on-figure. Yes, it's bad. I need smaller brushes. Even with a smaller brush, I think the twitches would render this level of detail about the best i could do. To the right is what it was actually supposed to look like, as drawn in photoshop. I wanted to go with a more corporate logo look for cobra, rather than a full-on cobra picture, something kids could easily graffitti onto walls...
