Used a Night Creeper body and headpiece, a trooper head, and RoC Neo Viper legs. And a cape from Resolute Cobra Commander

I tried a little black wash on this one, hope the results look good.

The really funny part is that I only have one Desert Viper! :)

Very nice custom, the black wash looks great on film so I can only amagine how good in person. I am sure that if your PIT was in the desert he could sneek all the way up to the ''ladder trap'' with noone being the wiser, lol.

Now thats what I expect a Desert Viper to look like. Thank you for setting things right.

This one is cool. Great mix of parts. Good camo painting. Love it.

The camo is ok, but it's the choice of parts for the head, wrap, and sash that makes it great.

Head, hat and cape choices are all very inspired.

Personally I prefer "X-Viper" Officers to look like upgraded "X-Vipers"

It'd be a bit more LBC, but I think he'd fit in better if the base body was just a stock Desert Viper.

That is one outstanding custom! The parts are well chosen for this desert look and I'm very enthusiastic about the result. I'm an ARAH fan, but this is very inspiring. You know, I have this Word-file on my PC where I keep record of all customs from JC that give me great idea's for my own customs. This copy/past-ing of a custom happens about once in every two months or so, only customs that I really, really like. Yours just found a place there too. Looking forward to see the trooper!

I would also enjoy some sort of mod/paint on the gun to make it pop.

Not at all what I expected, but a very pleasant surprise.

Looks like he'd fit in very well with the ROC Desert Vipers.

That's a great looking figure. That's how I would picture a trooper sent to either recruit guys in the Middle East or possibly a recruit from the Middle East.
