Consider the Cobra Commander stolen! These are all AWESOME! Love that you can use every head and cape/coat combination and they all look as though it was a factory box set. Archer is nice, but that Red Shadow paratrooper is great. The half-masked head with the split image is outstanding! Great work all around!

I stole the Cobra Commander idea from DanOfTheDead. I say keep it going. I'd love to see what you come up with.

Thanks man. I had fun making the paratrooper.

11/10 !!

CC is picture perfect, the red dragon is surprisingly scary, the DR FAUSTUS is what nightmares are made of ;)

This is sad, but I liked these so much, that I forgot to ask if we could get the parts used list.

Awesome work and I really like that you shot these in front of a light background. You do great work but your dark backgrounds hide a lot of your detailing.

Love your take on the Commander. Even though initially inspired by Dan, you definitely put your own spin on it here. I really love the coat over the shoulders look. Was glad to have snagged one of those pieces myself. It's outstanding.

Also, the paint work on the half mask Renegades CC head is phenomenal.

These all came out great. I REALLY like Faust and Vasic. Very cool and creepy. Who's head is on Vasic?

Your Commander came out excellent!

Thanks!

The head on Vasic was a cast I got from Dave Castle.

To all, thanks! I had a lot of fun making CC. I now have so many versions and variations I think I'm finally done with him.

The Red Dragon was my attempt to use red parts. I picked the head cause it fit under the helmet and wanted to paint it up, but didn't want to do a skull, so I tried to do a dragon. My wife says it looks like a monkey. :-/

Vasic was a bunch of spare parts and an attempt at a different character for my verse that didn't work out.
