I haven't come up with a proper name for it yet. Open to suggestions.

Okay...heres what I got:

I'm not used to seeing Pythonized vehicles in colours other than purple. I'm not sure what to think. It's too Python Patrol to not be Python Patrol, not Python Patrol enough to be Python Patrol. But using it with Nightwatch was a good instinct. Maybe that squad borrowed Python technology.

Since this is a tank that launches a helicopter, I searched spitting snakes for a possible name. Unfortunately, they're all variations of the Spitting Cobra. What do you think of the Python Black Neck? Or the Spitting Ringhal? Best I could come up with.

I like the "spitting" theme...as the heli basically spits from the tank. I like that ALOT!! Thanks!!

I love python patrol...but not a big fan of keeping it just maroon. I've been experimenting with other colors to see how it looks. And I basically got the idea in my head that the color has to match the environment....maroon stands out in alot of environments. That and the fact my son tells me what colors to use. :shifty:

That vehicle works so much better as a Cobra one and your paint job nails it! I think your colors work even better than the traditional Python colors.

I think you should paint some Cobra figures to match the Rhino exactly...

I only have one thing to say, "WOW" ... I LOVE that color scheme. Kind of "night watch"...
I like the idea of a spitting Cobra for the name.

I also think you should make a driver vehicle (using the same colors). Or maybe a 2 or 3 man team. 1 or 2 for in the rhino and 1 for the helo.

Hmm, a cobra fast response team, I like it.

I think the colors are much better than the traditional ones, thats one advantage of not being tied down by 20 years of collecting, though,

you could try painting some vipers to match it, maybe night vipers,

That turned out fantastic. And I'm lovin' the colors you (your son) chose. I like the idea of changing up the colors for the environment or the unit that's using the equipment. Nice job.

Man, Apoc, that's the bomb! I agree that it looks waaay cooler as a Cobra vehicle. As for a name, no idea! Great to see another custom from you and looking forward to seeing more!

Hehe, that Hasbro clearance is gonna have lots of Rhinos and ROCCs show up as customs! After seeing the Tiger Force one, this is what came to mind. "Wouldn't it be cool to see a Python Patrol one?" And here it is. It's really nice. Well done.

Man, that is a sweet ride! I love the idea of a Nightforce Python Patrol, since they're supposed to be stealthy and sneaky anyway. You oughta NF Pythonize a few of those Troopers.
