Post subject:  Snake, Shakes, and Shark
Here's three more of my PMC figures-Snake, Shakes, and Shark. The first figure, Snake, is the second in command of my "company", he's ex-CIA SOG, and specializes in intelligence and counter-insurgency (hence the computer, cell phone, GPS, and camera). Next is Shakes, a former DEVGRU Helicopter Sniper. Last, but not least, is Shark, DEVGRU point-man/breacher. Enjoy.

Nice mods. The figures look good: Shakes is my favorite. My only critique is that the paint on Shark's face could use some tightening up.

Your ideas are awesome...the excecution needs a bit of polish.

Snake I think is the best looking of the 3. Is that a Lego Hat...we need a parts list...I'm a big fan of that Leatherneck chest...it's hard to go wrong with it. Not sure if you sculpted new pants legs or if it's just the paint...but at least one of Snake's ankles needs a bit of cleaning up.

Shakes...Solid looking figure...good effort to mod the head...but it's still too much spirit. I'd love to see you ditch the pony tails and either give him some buzzer hair or a helmet..or somthing other than the Village Person stereotype braids. Where are those pouches from? I'm guessing you sculpted them onto the Firefly torso rather than kitbashing them from other figures. not sure what you're sculpting with but it looks like it hardened up before you could really smoothe out the pouches and detail them.....I just started using miliputt on some of my customs and I'm really happy with it's work time and finished durability.

Shark looks great from the neck down...the rough look of his head though just ruins the figure for me. The sculpting and paint on the glasses needs a bit more luvin'. it might be easier to just find a pair of glasses...VvV Leatherneck, Comic Pack Baroness, Agent Anika, or various people making cast reproductions are all options for quick easy sunglasses.
