here is my take at tryin to make the version 4 snake eyes, the one with all the mountain gear. Ever since I was younger this was my favorite snake eyes so here are a few shots of what i have so-far
here is one thing that I did change for myself the snake eyes head with goggles doesn't fit too well on the neck of the wave 7 ver. so i had to use the famous hot glue trick after i hollowed out the inside a little. and thus giving him a little more neck space kinda bad pics but you can see the difference of the two and how the neck looked really short before i did the change also with the arms I used the tomax upper arms and viper lower arms with the hands cut off and SS hands added there. I just didn't like the angle of the viper hands and he needed to be able to hold a gun and sword good enough. Sooo I'll post some more pics soon when I'm done painting but hope you like so-far ::update 1/15/09:: here is a updated pic of just some undertones that I'm going to use and fixed the web-gear.

Anyone have a good suggestion for the blue color for his arms?? I wanna try to best match it if I can and so far when I get paid I wanna pick up something close to navy blue or royal blue something kinda along those lines. I like to use tamiya and model masters and any other hobby paint as long as its acrylic.
