She doesn't look short. Good job for finding the proper fit.

Just my thoughts:
Scarlett is definitely well done. Snake Eyes needs an UZi or MP5 maybe a different face mask. Maybe. Mainframe, has a ways to go. got it. my advice and maybe you have things planned already paint helmet (I have a few of these and they take paint just fine) matte black. Scuff it up a bit. Give him a pad, in the comic he now uses a pad like a Samsung or Ipad and a smart phone. CC uses smart phones in the comic too. Mainframe is a vet, older, experienced, I would definitely incorporate that into his uniform.

Mainframe is a vet, older, experienced, I would definitely incorporate that into his uniform. The fourth character is going to be Shockwave. I'm having to build his costume from scratch, unless this is close enough: I could go the cheap route and buy the sky blue camo. I've never felt it matched the character. but it may be close enough to identify him.

For Shockwave I would maybe go for a more modern vibe that still captured the figures essence with the following:
Rothco Digital Camo T-Shirt Rothco Digital Camo BDU Pants Rothco Tactical Operator Cap Now for the vest you can always get a tac vest and spray paint it. Believe it or not it does work. I would give the Mac11 to Shockwave. Now, another thing you could do if you want to be more true to the figure? buy solid blue pants, solid blue shirt to match and use this for the "camo" Iron on Heat Transfer Vinyl for Fabric 9" x 12" Sheets for All Cutting Machines | eBay Then of course, the Navy camo pattern is now digi blue and you could go that route but people might think he was in the Navy and not the SWAT team. If you wanted to go modern SWAT you could also do that, piecing together a uniform would not be that difficult. In fact it would probably be the easiest of them all.

Are those men's boots? They look too big. Maybe it's the angle in the picture but if not, use female boots. Have to have a crossbow too

Actually, I worked on the drawing board for days to try and construct a overbarrel crossbow attachment for an M4. Couldn't get it to look or work satisfactorily. But with luck, my wife got an odd crossbow gift from her dad at christmas, so the in-law solved my problem. Weird.
It is used in the script.

Some of the weaponry I've been working on.
Scarlett (left) and Mainframe. One of the Cobra Troopers. One possible weapon for Snake Eyes. I kinda thought Snake Eyes should have a unique looking weapon (Still don't know about the Uzi) or it might be more bad ass for him to just have a suppressed pistol.
