Everyone and their brother has done one, I even have one made by TheLongestDay. But now that I'm doing my own customs, I figured I might as well give this guy a shot.
I've got a handful of customs to post, and I'm doing it out of order. This was actually like the fourth one that I finished and I'm posting it second (after the Storm Shadow I posted a few days ago). I've only recently gotten into painting, and all told, I'm pretty happy with the results. This guy was the most intense custom yet as I had to shave his knee joints down to take the upper legs I used. I carved the hood and bandoleer from the Paris Pursuit Snake Eyes trench coat. Parts: Head: Resolute Comic Pack Storm Shadow Upper Torso: Cobra Legions Storm Shadow Lower Torso: Paris Pursuit Snake Eyes (which is annoying because I carved the belt off to use it and then had to change lower torsos because the first didn't fit and ended up gluing to belt back on...) Upper Arms: Cobra Legions Storm Shadow Lower Arms: ROC Flash Right Hand: Comic Pack Shipwreck Left Hand: I don't remember Upper Legs: ROC Storm Shadow Lower Legs: Wraith Feet: Cobra Legions Storm Shadow Hood, Bandolier, Sword and Sheath: Paris Pursuit Snake Eyes More pictures here: Kamakura pictures by jaybeane - Photobucket |

Nice!
You know you seem to have a pretty close recipe for the Hammerhead driver, can't think of his name.

Very cool. My only suggestion would be to tone him down with a coat of clear flat, as he seems a bit glossy; otherwise, SWEET!

Yeah. The only paints I could find were gloss. I'm on the hunt for the clear flat stuff, but I get lost in those craft stores... I've also got a mix-in for the gloss that should help for future customs.
