What head did you use? I like it.

It reminds me of the Bowler Hat Guy from "Meet the Robinsons"...

Great work,How did you make the arms and legs? And on a different note I was really hoping for the guy from the original Dawn of the Dead.

This custom is awesome. He looks just as twitchy in action figure form as he did in the comic.

Great and innovative work!

The color of the fatigues is spot on and looks great!

Much appreciated, guys.

The body is all Cad Bane. The collar is epoxy, whereas the webgear straps/sleeves/pant legs are masking tape on top of the body. To cover the seam where the tape is over the plastic, I put several coats of acrylic paint. It hides the tape edge like mudding dry wall. The pouches are push molds of Ice Viper vest pouches. I also used the paint trick to fill the flesh gaps on the Zombie Viper head.

I never would have guessed that was a Zombie Viper head. Wow.

Inventive use of the masking tape. It makes the sleeves/pants look realistic with those folds. Can you still bend the arms/legs without paint chipping?

Wow, that's a lot of work put into the figure done so well, you can't even tell it was done, if that makes sense. I never would have guessed what the head was originally. It works great as Roger, and now I'm wanting to see someone use your mudding trick to make a Gomez Addams from that head, since it has that vibe to it, too.
