Here is the pre-sculpting WIP of my 25th Snow Serpent. The helmet is a cast from our very own TheUnknown! Thanks man, I love it!    |

Hey, that's a good start. That helmet is surprisingly fitting for the character. You think you might be able to sand off the hoses on the sides though?
btw, I casted the Guillotine helmet, and that custom made Headhunter Storm Trooper helmet.......But I'll take credit for this one too. In fact, I also do all of Hawks sculpting!
:EDIT:
Good to see another Cobra from you!

I got about half of the sculpting done on him last night, both shoulders and the left arm and leg. Hope to finish sculpting tomorrow and primer it.
I dont think I will sand the hoses off the helmet. I thought they could be explained as funneling his breath off so it doesnt give his position away in cold weather.
It is kinda nice to be doing Cobras again. I loved my 25th Airborne Night Viper and plan on doing an Airborne Alley Viper as soon as I can get a hold of another Air Trooper.
Oh and his this dude's parachute pack is removable. Its attached with some elastic.

Sculpting is done as is most of the painting. He'll get a map on the left leg and gonna switch out the pouch that he came with on the same leg too Gonna paint the eyes metallic blue. Then I'll start work on his gear!  |

OH, I see now! I (like a dumbass) didn't read before and thought the original pics WERE the finished version! And I must say, I was rather disappointed considering what we have come to expect from you. LOL!!
But THIS... man, why can't Hasbro live up to your standards. As it stands right now, I have no intention of buying Snow Job as he'd be difficult to display properly, but if they made THESE guys, hell, I'd snatch him up in a heartbeat or less! As well as about 5 or6 of these Snow Serpents. LOL!!

Well, he could have been done tonight....
But I broke out the new sculpting stuff I got and I fricking love it. So I did a little more sculpting to him.
I'll take him to work to paint him tomorrow. Pics for sure on Sunday!

fuck yes! saw the pic on my phone, REALLY want to see it in hi-res.
that little picture is creepy enough... Snow Job and Joe Canuck are going to have to play cat & mouse (aka 'hide n seek) with that bastard, there's no way they're taking THOSE Snow Serpents on full front unless necessary!

Apoxie Sculpt.
Same brand as Fixit sculpt, but supposed to be a bit better for this sort of thing.
I like it so far, seems to be easier to manage and to get it to do what I want it to do and it doesnt seem to take fingerprints very easily like the other stuff, which means less time fixing my fuck ups.

I didnt realize that stuff was better... will have to pick some up when I eventually run out of what I have... though six pounds of apoxie should last me a long time....well in theory.
