i agree the neck looks long on these but they still look class.
could you cut the necks down a bit steve?

i cant remember who did another version of these but i think he used the original head and i thought it looked pretty cool.

i would also do away with the white bits and paint them black

the baroness is brilliant such a simple custom but it works sooo well ;-)

Id intend to take the White off bill, but I ummed and ahhed and ended up leaving it as it reminded me of the :shadow: shoulder patches. I might well have a bit of a whittle at the necks some more - they'll need a bit off the top and making a bit thinner to still fit into the heads, but should make them sit lower onto the shoulders.

Great job Steve, I like the black and red paint job too :)
Are they sporting backpacks / airtanks?.
Having them kitted out with some Eels dartguns would be a great touch too.

sorRry - yeah - I really ought to have taken shots of the backs too! I'll do some later on. They've got funny little backpack things that came with the divers. Good idea with the torpedo guns - I'll track some down. Weird that the base figures came with a knife, macine gun and pistol. Only the knife really suited to underwater use!

they're probably supposed to be some kind of SEAL commando, SEa Air Land. so, the gun would be for out-of water use...

From what I have seen of the Cobra Diver figure it's a re-paint of Torpedo who also has a small oxygen tank. You can hook his harpoon gun to it which is handy.
