 Post subject: Gardon the Nemesis: Captian Of The Royal Guard

I wanted to add to my pre-mutation Pythona and give them a little back story so here it goes:

Cobra La originated from a distant world where the resources were exhausted, forcing the remaining survivors to settle on a planet called Earth. With limited technology available to them, their leader Golobulas devised a plan to use genetic mutation to replace their current technology. Many of his followers opposed this plan and felt that he was going mad. His main opponent was his old rival and "Nemesis" Gardon, who was now the Captian of his Royal Guardsmen. Gardon was old fashioned and was determined to be the "Enforcer" of the laws of Cobra La, trying to prevent Golobulas from experimenting on their people. Golobulas was enraged and kidnapped his only daughter Taleela, promising to kill her if Gardon didn`t surrender. Golobulas used this opportunity to capture Gardon, and used him for his first experiment. He wiped his memories and fused his DNA with a vampire bat, creating a terrifying monster. He then used reptile DNA to fuse Taleela, creating a faster, and more lethal assasin. Both were forced to watch as their people were enslaved and turned into freaks of nature, all while serving under Golobulas as his "Nemesis Enforcer" and Pythona".

Ok here is some pics:

This version represents the Uniform of the Royal Guard, before becoming insect like freaks! Parts list to come later

By the way, if anyone knows where I can find a couple of the Lanard Star Force heads like the one used for the helmet LMK! I plan on making at least 1 more Royal Guard with it.

Great customs, and a great new take on Cobra-La. Any plans on a Golobulus?

That is just impressive. I love the look you have given Nemesis. Works really well. Some great sculpting there.

Cool!
I like that spear thing. What is it, where did you get it or recipe?
The helmet looks kinda Samus (Metroid), but it works!

While I never liked the Cobra- La concept. I'll admit I like the Royal Guards. This is the coolest custom of such I've seen.
Are you willing to share your "recipe" ?

I also may have another of those heads for you... I'll have to look.

taleela is a very sweet custom, but that commander, man, it makes me rethink the royal guards.

Very excellent, keep them coming, :)

Looks like you're really back on your game...mods and paint work on this guy are flawless...very smooth...a bit of work on the photography would really give you that one extra bit of punch in your presentation.

I miss the double bubble bug eyes of the Roal Guard...I wish you'd have kept that look for the helmet..as is I just see too much of the Corps Starforce heads...I know you were trying not to be buggy...but I think you could have pulled it off.

I hate those arm blades...they just look too big and akward... like non-functioning wings or somthing. What would be cool is if that double blade staff split down the middle and then could clip each half onto the lower arm...That I think would be an easy transition to the Nemesis Enforcer we all know and love or hate.

last thing I'd add would be a cape...I've always felt its a big missing part of the Royal Guard figures and would be an easier morph into bat wings than those little arm winglets would be.
