Post subject:  Viper One.
This guy needs a little adjust in spot painting, but I'm guess that it is a good choice for a general commander of the viper legions. From this purpose I adopted the name of Viper One, and he got the number in the chest.

Parts used:
Head: resin casted from customized Tiger Force Dusty (Felino Brazil) head
Chest: Blaster
High arms: Mutt v1
Lower arms: Psiche Out v1
Waist: Deep Six v2
Thighs and legs: Backblast v1

Great use of crap parts!

Every time I see a BF2000 torso used in a new cool way, I find it very inspiring.

You do need ti find a smoother silver paint. Wish I had some advice for you on that. :-/

Very cool...this is a great looking figure...I've done somthing similar only using a Sneak Peak head.

when you modded the head, did you add material or remove it to make the face mask? I'm guessing removed...because as it is...it looks like there wouldnt be enough room for a person's head to fit behind the mask.

Raptor, this silver paint is the one that I have, it's a crap and very difficult to use, since it was designed to use in metal/glass/ceramic materials instead of plastic. So, any suggestion will help.

Nova, I first cutted off the nose, then the entire face with a x-acto knife and sanded it. Then I added epoxy clay, modeled and sanded with very thin sandpaper for use in wood. I guess that the guy inside have a little head ;) In the future I will try to make one removeable helmet with the same design.

xhairs, thanks for the comments. I always tried make some good use of that crap parts with neon orange like colors :lol:

danielb, sorry disapoint you man, but I have only pictures of some customs that I made in the past 6 months. No new customs available, my collection and customizing resources are all boxed due house moving. Also I'm finish some work projects, and time is very short. Anyway, I will send the customs picts to critics in the velocity as possible.
Thanks for comments. ;-)

Wow, that head is spectacular! Some seriously well thought out use of parts I would never in a million years have considered using, and an excellent paint job too! Nicely done!

This is a great figure. I love the head, I didn't even notice it was Dusty's.

I think it needs a bit of lining underneath the bridge of the helmet. Where the gray meets the silver, the paint's a bit ragged. But other than that, sharp paint and a job well done!
