Also worked more on venom today. Not sure if i like this version from gallo negro. It looks a little disproportionate imho. Ill wait to see how malwares turns out. In the meantime ill paint this one and hope for the best. All thats left is to get him a leg drop holster. I also want to talk to raveneye about duplicating and expanding the pak handgun to 1/6 seeing well never get one from ebay or another distributer.

You really should decrease your ISO, Jason... it's set way too high on your camera.

That's a great looking figure, though! The hand is a bit too big... but, it might look better once you paint it.
 
thanks, im using my phone and i dont know too much about exposures.

i agree, im going to get the right color red tomorrow and paint the whole arm/hand up. i think the arm is too skinny and the hand is too big. the bdu is actually way too small as well and i have a woodland one i may switch it out for. i have a butt pack from a rah i forgot i had that ill put on.
 
Just ordered the holster i need to finish venom snake. Got some painting done on the arm/hand/idroid and also took the time to do a good shot. Let me know what you think. The idroid isnt finished yet, i need some orange.

Thanks solidus! There was hours of work in cutting and dremeling, then the paint was very meticulous. Besides the butt pack theres a canteen next to it as well that luckily i had!

Painted the idroid today. The camera makes it look horrible, it looks so much better in person. I also swapped out the body on the boss, the camera also ruins it and makes her look bad.

Big boss iterations. Venom snake doesnt have a base decal or holster and naked snake needs the new sculpt from matt but for now these are my big boss customs.

Got this vest in today. Not perfect but I think it should do, it obviously needs to be died black. This is Venom Snake on a budget because I hardly care for the character. Vest was $4 and the head $11. Trying to keep him under $75.

looks awesome so far! are you sure that that vest will take to the dye? you may have to use fabric paint. malware is going to come out with an arm soon, he said hes trying to go for $50 on the price and is supplying the joint. if you need help sourcing some items i have some sites you can try.

I bought the same one for mine, you can try fabric dye, but it might not work since it's a synthetic fiber, I used black paint diluted in water and painted in layers so it doesn't stiffen the vest.

Here is how the dye did after a few rounds of Rainbow Six Siege. seems the nylon parts won't take the dye but it kind of looks cool like this.

that looks plenty good enough. i want to change the bags on mine eventually so that they go vertically. i just scored some but theyre going onto my iroquois plissken custom. its almost done, i want to have it done early so that when the head arrives i can just pop it on.
