I've liked the look of Cobra De Aco since I first saw pics of him about 10 years ago but have never got around to doing a custom of him until now. I didn't paint the lower legs silver because they don't look like boots as they did on the original figure. The neck has been lengthened with a wee blob of blu-tack.    The yellow looks very orangey in these pics. Just need a Cobra logo now. |

Sweet stuff. I wish I had the time to do some figures right now but it's not in the stars. If I did this would be #2 after TC's simple CC head. BTW, I'll be in Dublin (airport  ) for a whopping total of 3.5 hours during the month of April. Wave at the planes coming in on the 11th and 25th.

looks great. this is also in the cue for me to. the neck lengthening makes all the difference. not painting the shins is inspired, but I can't decide which way I'm going to go. If you need a logo for him, just let me know

This is awesome. A perfect update. People would buy that figure retail. |

Thanks guys! Beav, I live right beside the airport, so I can wave to your planes!  Cheers Matthew, but I should be sorted out with a logo soon enough. |
