I was swaping around heads of the 25th figures one day and stumbled upon what is to be the Cobra Super Soldier. So I plan on the base color to be the Cobra blue but I would like some input on what to do with the chest plate and how to put the Cobra emblem on his chest.
So let fly the feedback,suggestions and comments.

Neat parts choice. Has definite super soldier potential or even a Desert Scorpion with a bit of modding. Just a thought.

To get a 3D relief of the sigil on his chest, I'd destroy one of the JvC Ripclaw torsos and file his chest emblem to fit. I'd glue it to Serpy's chest *only* and try to sit it so it doesn't interfere with his ribcage movement.

This is a cool idea, I'd love to see if someone could pull it off... Otherwise, again, I love the start you've got here. He looks sort of like a super hero to me, sort of comic booky. That's a good thing.

The Cobra sigil on the Sgt. Airborne SpyTroops armor is pretty easy to work with. Soft plastic after all. Not the most accurate, but it looks good. It'll be flexible too, so it should fit closer.

Here's the latest udate on my Cobra Super Soldier, I tried to add a belt where the old Serpentor skirt was but the belt sucked. (see first picture)

I endded up filling in the area with sculpy and painted it. I found an old Cobra boart that was unopened and used a decal for the emblem on his chest, which I think turned out Ok.

Q. Should I add a gun holster and gun or a feww accessories?

I like accessories (see my 25th AV). I'd at least add some ammo pouches so he can reload his weapons. Maybe a knife. Looks good I like it.

He needs smaller guns, a Bigger Shield...a bigger belt...somthing akin to a texas belt buckle...but with a cobra sigil on it....and more chrome....Red Chrome would be spectacular.

I'd say paint the neck. Leaving it flesh tone like that makes it look slightly off. Some body armor wouldn't hurt much either. Serpentor's legs would have helped bulk him up and give him a slightly more padded and combat ready look.

I used Serpy's upper leggs, I can get with the pouches and body armour I can't quite decide what kind sheild to use so I'm open for suggestions on that. I think I'll stay away from the crome though.

I want to keep him as a prototype Super Soldier fresh out of the lab type of character, not quite a polished slodier.
