first off let me say this is the first custom i have ever done other than a lbc. just getting back in to gi joes after almost 15 years away. i always wanted a gunner for my cobra vehicles when i was little. i made this guy to act as a turret man for the h.i.s.s. anyway i need a name for him and am looking for suggestions and tips on customizing.did learn that i need to through away old paint. was using new model master and didnt like the red i picked not quite brite enough so i used some old testors model enamel on top of the model master left some imperfections not perfect smoothness

parts used
rock viper head and arms
duke version 6 i believe star brigade commander from 1994

I'd call him Gunner or Reload.

Constrictor, cause he looks like the Marvel Comics character to me.

Before even reading your write-up I thought he'd tie well to a HISS. Maybe make him a more individualized Rip-It.

How about Metal Iron because he looks like a cross between Metal Head and Scrap Iron and because it sounds better than Scrap Head.

Seriously here are some suggestions, Turret, Big Bore, Cannon, Gunz, or Flak Viper Commander

I would saw Rock Viper Commander myself. Possible Tank Viper. He is pretty neat looking too.
