Cutters tattoo seems a bit off but otherwise spot on!

Thanks. I used Mercer's upper arms and these had the tattoo. Wasn't sure if I wanted to erase it or not.

Day 17 is up.

Enjoy!

The Headhunters look magical. Are those vintage heads?

Love the Headhunters here. One suggestion, since you've made some nice improvements to the designs.

The original head with "aerodynamic, hitman protective helmet" looks like a beret in the card art. Putting a beret on the Renegades Cobra Commander head could be kinda neat for these guys.

Thanks.

I tried the beret+CC head idea. It works pretty well, but I had a couple of vintage figures socked away especially for this so I went the originals instead. I may revisit the other way since I would like to have 6-8 of these and acquiring vintage heads will get expensive. These 2 could be officers with the 6-8 new ones being troops.

These are really cool. I can't place the lower legs on Backblast, who's are they?

Thanks. The upper legs are 25th Snow Job and the lowers are 25th Viper. I had to trim a little bit to make them fit together, but it was not a big job.
