yesterday I set aside my current projects and started organizing fodder, fun right! but I really did end up having fun. how on earth I ended up with a dozen ME CC i'll never know, but as I piled them up I picked up my first KOBRA president in a bag in pieces and decided to put him back together. that led to building 3 more

KOBRA president (parade dress) almost an lbc but I had to grind pouches off and mod the head. gloves are from a second ME CC. loki? skirt with some kind of thor? cape.


KOBRA president (official bidness suite) Xavier? base again almost an lbc but I had to grind the hand pegs and head.


KOBRA president (field command uniform) lbc shared head w/bidness


some ssiide by sssside shots!






with my first KOBRA president, might should have left him for fodder.....



here is another fun thing that happened. just calling him big frank. I think the base is mcfairlane? Frankenstein and the head is from an air freshener? perfect color match! jacket is a large scale penguin.



I worked on my titanboa crew, dogs of war, and cold slither sets. mostly parts swaps w/new acquisitions. no pics yet, but they are coming. oh I also got a couple in the works for Halloween

Hahaha, look at that Zartan with his girly hair!
Torch's hair looks nice too.

thanks drb!

yea tim I sculpted zartans hair twice and was never happy with either, so I boiled and pulled a lady headsculpts wig. I see him as kind of a diva anyway so it might work.. torch and buzzer? are sculpted hair . also had to graft a different neckball thing on a few of them.ripper has baroness v1? hair

Cold Slither is great!!

Care to elaborate on this Kobra thing? Is this Cobra Commander after the movie or is this reptilian people actually rule the world if you know what to look for?

thanks alleyviperelite!

in my joe verse KOBRA is a post apocalyptic entity that is hunting the remnants of gi joe (stalker and his dogs of war) and the remnants of cobra.(crocmaster and gnawgahyde so far). after the event the world is in ruins and KOBRA ceases both political and military power. the reptilian president was indeed lab grown by the clone of globulus using CC dna from mindbenders stash crossed with a good bit of his own.

KOBRA proper so far is the president, cyborg baroness, the clone of globulus, plus several folks who wear "the destro" mask.

I really need to look through all my customs and write down my plot from the entries in the gallery http://www.joecustoms.com/userops/profile.php?uid=8325

I love that Cold Slither set. I always wished Hasbro would have given us a set of figures for them. Your take on them is great

Cold Slither is amazing.

thanks guys it really means a lot! I started cold slither early last year iirc and I was trying to finish them when the JC rocks gp was going on.

I've slowly been swapping in better parts. here was my first test shot

my second go at zartan


I call this "buddofart"

I saved this image off ebay (sorry if it's anybody from here) because it was hilarious.

did some sculpting last night.

this is a custom of/for my friend mr jon. that's a vac not a leaf blower . I gave him a ghostbusters sticker for his real world vac-pac I also have a fishing rig in the works for him too!


kind of torn as to the direction of this custom. it was for Halloween and in the beginning just a joke. sculpt looks more real and gross than my intent. those are moobs before anyone gets their dander up


did a little fill work on that air freshener frank head.


cold slither about ready for paint!

The moobs one looks like a noseless, smiling Homer Simpson.
