What do you think would be the best head from Joe/Cobra figures to use for this? Also, what is the skinniest male body made? I'm thinkin' about using a Storm Shadow as the base, preferably one of the shirtless figs, to keep the body proportion correct with Nightcrawler.
Suggestions?

Well, the problem is, is that Nightcrawlers body is very minimal...just the red "V" on his torso will be sculpted on, and most of the bodies would have too much excess stuff to dremel off and and sand down. I'm pretty set on Storm Shadow as the basis, as he'll just have to be painted black and voila, it looks like his black body suit...will probably swap out for female legs though, as they need to be skinny, with no clothing trace, folds, pouches, etc. Just trying to figure out which ones...and the head is the most important. It's a tricky task figuring out who will best look like Kurt.

why not starting with the MU nightcrawler? I realize it's not the best body, that it is too tall, but I think it would be easier (especially the head) to start there.
If you are dead set on joe parts, ROC snake eyes and Retaliation snake eyes have better, thinner bare torsos than any storm shadow, and they're molded in black. |

Yes I would use the MU Night Crawler but if your going a more GI JOE route, How about using the body of ROC Snake Eyes, its basicly just a body suit,
Your going to have to change the legs and hands out though.

Some good ideas...as for the MU Nightcrawler...the point of this is actually that I want to make him out of GI Joe/Cobra figures. I might just actually make him a Cobra Infiltrator and give him a whole new look. What do you guys think?
However, I absolutely must make a true-to-form comic version Nightcrawler also.
