Hello everybody! :) My name is Dave and I'm new to JoeCustoms ;)
Back in December, my best friend, GIjoeFan1976 on here, messaged me to tell me about this contest and what with me having done a few maybe pretty decent custom projects in the past, he thought it would be awesome if I tried out! I am very very grateful to him for his help and encouragement as it has been quite a while since I actually finished a project!
So, I hope this works and I hope everybody who sees this likes our team effort custom Cobra Commander figure! :D

I used:
Storm Shadow v26 for the main body
Cobra Viper v16-19 for the head and lower legs
Renegades Firefly for the upper legs
RoC Cobra Eel for the arms
25ther Mercenary Wraith armor piece
the Thor movie lines Shield Bash Odin figures cape/cloak
my PoC Jungle Viper sacrificed his pistol holsters ;)
a carefully cut out piece of chrome sticker from my Transformer G1 Skywarp reissue sticker sheet
...and quite alot of Green Stuff sculpting! :D

Thanks for looking! :D

Yeah so cool that we could share yet another thing:D nice to have positive memories:D You weren't kindidng when you said you had more pictures:) It is nice seeing more views of him:D still can't wait to hold him one day:D also as much as I would need a cloth cape have to say I like the swoop to this cape:D maybe what I would have to do is try and do like a hybrid not sure how but have it where the sculpted part is used for around the neck and then cloth for the rest?

Again thanks for doing this!! and I am so happy you were able to have fun doing this:D

Oh it indeedily doodily is my best friend! :D Aw many thanks to you and I sure was happy to discover I could add more of the pictures on a response post thingy like this ;)
ahhhhhh I can't wait either but you will get to see him and hold him in person sooner rather than later! :D
Hmmm, ya know you really could use a plasticy cape like this if you want, as we'd have to do the same sorta sculpting part whether a plastic or cloth hybrid and since you do like the swoop to the cape, I think you and I could make a nice one for your version! ;)
:D!
