Any interesting ideas for a name and specialty of this Cobra? Either trooper or individual... it just hasn't said anything to me yet.  Just a Swamp-Rat body with a green wash, Blackout head, SB Helmet, Gung-Ho vest and Marauder gun. I think I might sculpt on a ribbed collar around the neck. |

Neat idea. The parts really flow well together. Only minor thing I'd suggest is a darker gray or maybe a different color altogether on the helmet to divert away from the SB look. I could see him as a operative in the Everglades, smuggling contraband in for Cobra from abroad...hence the codename: Gator. |

I'd say an individual named "Snake Eater". |

Do you read the Comic? Early in the seris when they first brought back Sepentor. The Ig's were donig somthing in South America. The Ig's were undercover I think they were trying to start a war or somithing like that but your guy looks like their undercover uniforms |

Nice. Probably have to see a pic without the helmet to get an idea of what to call him |

I like the look of the figure, but I'm having a hard time deciding what he should be. I think an army builder would be called for, and the idea of a kind of jungle deco Iron Grenadier is intriguing. Maybe go with that. I'm not sure what they'd be called, though. |

Definitly an army builder, I like the jungle Grenadier idea. Nice mix of parts, I hope you don't mind if i steal the idea for myself

Yeah, I really like the fig, makes me really want to get a bunch of those uber cool helmets, lol. I'd match up the green you used to the helmet, also, is that a pulse rifle? |

Thanks for all the comments. He's all yours to steal the formula for. I just want to see your end results!  Personally I'm thinking he's 95% complete - I think I'll keep the helmet colour as I like the way it plays against the other gray colour accents... In case anyone is interested, the colour is Citadel Catachan Green. I could army-build this guy a bit - for the accessories at least. Might be missing this version of Swamp-Rat in significant numbers though  And yep, it's the Pulse Rifle |
