My original Spirit custom was... an oddity that mixed ROC Leatherneck's upper body with ROC Rampage's belt and legs...
Maybe it made sense to me at the time but now it felt very unusable...

I considered getting another commando-sweatered Snake-Eyes bases to do something based on the DDP look, but then I remembered I had that 30th Steel Brigade body I'd made a strange Duke out of. Its coloration matched the original Spirit's attire nicely, so it made for a nice hybrid of the original blue/tan look and the later commando-attired versions.
Took some dremeling to get the Quinlan Vos head to fit. Pondering if I should find him a nice belt to finish him up.



This is pretty straightforward. Felt like repainting a Neo-Viper to match the colors of the Action Battlers five-inch figure. Had to take some liberties, especially with the forearms, because the details on the larger figure didn't match those of the smaller ones.


Thanks for looking!

If you can find the loin cloth and web gear of 25th Spirit or at least the loin cloth, that'd finish Spirit off nicely.
As far as the Neo-Viper, never a fan of the figure and painting it bronze does nothing for my opinion, but the paint looks tight and contrasts nicely with the black.

Holy _____! That Spirit is awesome. So simple and cool. I may have to try that, I like the PoC Spirit a lot, but the green has never quite worked for me. Very nice man, very nice.

Using Quinlan Vos for a Spirit head = BRILLIANT!!!

Spirit is genius. The lion cloth would be very Spirit-y, but I think you could use POC Jungle Duke webgear with maroon accents.

That spirit is great.

Wow, thanks everyone!


I do have the loincloth/webgear of 25th Spirit, it's what I cut the necklace out of. I tried fitting it on the figure but the webgear is so thick and Quinlan's hair sits so close to the shoulders that it wasn't a good fit at all.
I also considered just cutting the loincloth piece out, but I wasn't feeling the loincloth look added to this attire....


Yeah, Neo-Vipers are really unpopular. Personally, I love em, and own every version of em (along with one of each army builder using a ROC base body piece, except the SRO Elite-Viper I still can't find), and I decided to bring the variations from different scales over to my 4" collection.
