Design idea's and construction follow pics...
VIPER FIRE TEAM (WIP) Team Leader (Doubles as Grenadier) Rifleman Automatic Rifleman Assistant Automatic Rifleman Designated Marksman Due to this being a 4-5 figure project I had to save somewhere. I went with Dragon bodies and Ultimate Soldier Uniforms. The hard part (by hard I mean $$$) was obtaining the 12” VvV Cobra Commanders for the headsculpts. (Still need 3 more) I would then cut the face mask off of the head with my exacto knife. The 21st century uniforms had the sleeves cut and rolled. Grenades and gloves were painted red. Helmets were painted with a custom made color (insignia blue mixed with flat black). I will mix up the body armor based on the role. The larger armor(next figure of the team) had to be painted.

Interested to see this finished.
Are you on OSW by any chance? Good work on this so far. Vipers were my favorite when I was a kid.

Thanks everybody. I wish I could use a different bodies but, then I would have to use differnet uniforms and that would drive the cost up. I am on OSW (Hawk MMS) and post my Joes on this thread with all the ones that are so much better than mine http://www.onesixthwarriors.com/foru...ah-bashes.html
JoeCrazy-That would be awesome re: the heads. PM sent. Also that CC is great. Also like your other figs Roadblock, lowlight, Shipwreck. very well done.
