My Cobra Troopers needed some officers and individuals, so why not the main two we have been treated too?

Scarface

I went for his look from the comic included in the two pack with the shaggy unkept hair. The gear is a Duke bandolier meshed to an Officer's belt.

Claymore

Went for a basic unmasked look, if I can wrangle another of this head, I'll sculpt on the scarf.

Nice work as usual, great job on the paints, i still like simple customs like these, a little paint and a head swap and then you have a great custom.

Terrible. You should totally send them to me so I can fix them up :shifty:

What head is that on Claymore?

Nice work on both.

The one thing that kinda bugs me about these is the holsters seem to ride really low on the left thigh. That's not your fault though, the straps are molded that low so unless you resculpted them there's not much you could do about it.

Other than that these look good. Not characters I particularly care for but they came out really well. I can appreciate a good custom when I see one and these are good customs.

The heads look great, but the work on the webgear is what really sells me on these figures. They look just different enough to be non-generic characters.
