No it's a piece of something or other that looked fabric-y. I tried sculpting first but it didn't work out at all.

Great improvement on one of my favorite cobra figures already, I love the Desert Scorpion! Good choice on colors and smooth paint application, it looks like a less is more type situation, I like that there is no camo. Having only a few paint colors really gives it a production quality appearance.

That is pretty slick. Don't know why the original had no sleeves.

He's good and all, but he's no Skydiver. Just saying. :D

Clean looking figure... almost a tad too practical for my taste in Cobras.

I like what you did with the head cloth...not being fabric really improves the look...you can actually get it to flow or look like it should.

That said, the figure is a tad on the Bland side...he's missing that "POP". adding a single color camo pattern would help to break up the big chunks of Khaki on this figure.

Man that is tight he looks like he came right out the card that paint job is on point.

That is a massive improvement over the original color set. Awesome work.

A very cool update of one of my favorite figures from the neon-era. The colours make him just that little bit more suitable for desert ops.
I understand the "pop"-thing Nova said. A camo pattern could work, but maybe a Cobra logo, scorpion logo or some patch on one or both arms would complete the job too.
