25th Super Soldier WIP

Ok so I needed a follow up to Crystal Ball and I figured why not Super Soldier, I was thinking Raptor but I do not have a spare figure so he is on hold for now. I found a Super Soldier at the local comic shop for only $4 and picked him up and popped off the chest armour with no problems. I was going to paint the pants green but when I saw him with the armour on I like the way he looks now. Let me know what you guys think.

Parts
Head: BBI SEAL
Body: Gung Ho
Vest, Helmet, and Shield: Super Trooper

Looks cool but the face does not scream ARRRRRRR GONNA BUST IN AND GO CRAZY ON SOME COBRAS!!!!! :lol:

I like it except for the exposed midrif. Maybe paint a green tanktop on him.
Without the shirt he looks like he would run in to battle waving his arms and yelling Hellloooooooooo Cobra ( not in a manly way ) ;-)

Seriously though I do like the idea.

The head you chose says im a badass instead of RAAARARHAHAGGGAHHHHH like the commercial one lol. I think it fits him better as a character.
Its funny I was tinkering around with this idea a few nights ago but ended up jsut giving up lol

I had been looking for a head that had the screaming, wild man look so he would look more the commercial but could not find one. So I decided to go with the mean looking head.

I am thinking he does need a tank top, tried the Roadblock torso but it is a little to big and the armour would need to be dremeled out some and I am afraid that the armour might be a little too brittle. But with out the tank top he would work well as part of the Brawler Brigade! Hmmm I think it is time for a 25th Brawler!

I believe you captured him very well. I also agree that you may want to adjust the midriff if possible. Very good job.

I love the action shots for this guy. I agree he needs a tank top but only to prevent chaffige.

You don't need a diffrent torso, just paint a tank top.
