So, take 3 on Lamprey. After the attempt using a Cobra Diver body failed because of clashing reds and the heavy detail of the torso just not working well with a vest over it breaking up the pattern, and after the attempt using a standard ROC Eel was just... too black and red and too little else... I decided to go for a third one, this time using the Target-exclusive ROC Eel. I think I nailed it. I like how the Cobra sigil shines out of the open part of the vest. Some minor parts-swapping involved, and I made sure to paint the feet black and the forearm armor silver instead of gunmetal.
Also gave him a new boat instead of a sub, courtesy of Wal-Mart's ninja offerings.

Body: ROC Target-exclusive Eel
Vest, helmet: ROC Aqua-Viper Officer
Thigh holster, knife: ROC Eel
Pistol: Diver Baroness

And my Cobra Mortal had a bit of an issue with the belt I'd given him snapping due to stress, so after I took the Eel's extra belt off, I knew I could use it on Mortal, because Hasbro used it on the ROC Storm Shadow that came with the Target-exclusive Arashikage Cycle.

That mortal looks so much better than the wip -- the black accents really pop. I was going to mention that he needed some kind of belt, as that waist sculpt is too plain, but you already did it. And the silver head is perfect.
