Black Major-head change

Post by Red Laser »

I wasn't fully happy with the look of the helmet so swapped it with a crimson Elite Viper's. Image

Nice work he looks great :-D . Any reason you went the Neo Viper route rather than the Human head route.

It was a themed lbc I had done Christmas last year Chris so decided the Major who is a born survivor would invest in combat armour and better protection for his head especially in arctic conditions. I would like to do a snowski vehicle for him if anyone could suggest anything compatible with ROC figures.

Nice work mate. What about a touch of silver detailing around the mouth?

The helmet was a dark chrome red with black eye pieces the same colour red as the armour I photographed on my poseable Baron Ironblood thread. Image

The heads are pretty good. I like to paint them and then drybrush them black. It works for me.
