Grey, white, and silver! Tried to make this a very simple figure out of leftover parts.

I'm glad to see that head...I don't think a head that's as cool as the Ninja Force SE gets used often enough for Snake Eyes....or even at all.

I know you're using up spare parts...but I think you need a different lower body...or at the very least not to use those headman feet.

All the detail and bulk of the Battle Corps Beachhead torso and the rest of the upper body really overpower the lower body and make the figure feel top heavy...I like doc's crotch and thighs...just not for a snake eyes figure.

Blizzard or Sub Zero both have cool sets of legs that would work well with that torso.

I really like that base color grey you used...but there's just not enough contrast between it the white and silver...and that makes the figure kinda bland...or monotone.

Maybe a bright blue? somthing that would add a bit of punch to the figure on the whole...

He also needs Blizzard's Crampons. There's nothing better than a ninja being able to side-kick a cobra in the face with Spiked boots.

Sig worthy!

As for the figure itself, I get a more ceremonial feel than as a Cold Weather Ops trooper.

I guess if one uses that much silver, it's not really a credible field BDU. It would draw too much attention.

If you said it was the base of a new prototype chameleon suit which has Zartan-like holographic projectors, etc, then I could go for that.

As for the 'drab', maybe a little bit of black along the edges to break it up some? Maybe a camo style like v1 Firefly?

Top notch all around! Except for those feet. Those should never be used for anything ever. Your painting is excellent, and your parts choices are great! I've never looked at that Snake Eyes head really, and it IS pretty sweet.

Nice wor\k!

I have to echo the opinion on the feet. I like everything else. Now find him some accessories. :D
