Comments are welcomed.

good stuff gregg, They are good but they are pretty bright colored ninjas.The joe ones need some color contrast to bring out the details on them more. The head on archer is cool, who's is it?

Thanks for the feedback, double T! On the colors of the Joes, I pulled out the old Ninja Battle figures & tried to match their colors to those colors. I really liked the way TigerClaw turned out personally. The head is from a Star Wars battle 2 pak ( Target exclusive) which I caught on sale . I way planning on using it on another custom I'm working on , but it did not work so I used it here instead.

I really like the new concepts for Kamakura and Tiger Claw. The orange and green on the latter make for a neat color scheme. I also really dig the Archer. That is indeed great head choice, another unique color scheme, and just a cool idea for a character.

Couple critiques - I'd maybe use all flat paints, instead of a mix of flat and shiny, like on Tiger Claw. Also, I believe Tiger Claw is supposed to be African American, though the original figure did a poor job relaying this fact. (But since this your take, he can be whatever you want, obviously.) One more thing is that I'd like to see you use MS paint or something and crop out the sides of the pics so we can more easily focus on the figs.

All in all a neat set, and it's got me hankering to do some more ninjas of my own. Looking forward to more.

oooh nice! I love ninjas and these friggin rule especially the Cobras, like a reworked and faaaaar cooler Red Ninjas

Thanks guys for the comments! I am a work in progress when it comes to picture taking & appreciate any tips on helping my pictures to turn out better. Thanks again for the kind words.
