You'll have to mess around modding the head a bit to fit it on a TTM19 body as the Yamato Snake has a neck and it's own connector

You'd have to cut the head off at the connector and look at how you can attach it!

Got it Jack, thanks! Will get the TTM19 then, sounds like the best one to use. I also saw a seamless muscle body for Liquid (CM Toys 1/6 Muscle Body HJ001/2). So tempted to get one! Already spent a lot on customizing these figures- 3 Phicen bodies, crapload of art supplies, primers, gloss paint, epoxy putty etc. Hope I can start working on them this week!

I'd save your money on the CMToys....it's really not worth it. I have one and its a very weird, zombie-like skin tone. You'd be better served finding an older HT rubber muscle body or taking a TTM19 and sculpting over the torso to make it seamless.

Oh really? Damn. Guess I'll keep the coat on till then.

Yeah, did the same with the other heads as well. Snake has a soft head though.

When I get my last of the 5 Raidens this week hopefully, I'm going to do a photoshoot of each of them posing with my custom Murasama blade.

 

[Jameson Rook]

Working on Meryl's TTS hairdo. It's my first time sculpting too. So tired but I hope I'll get her done in a day or two more.

 

[Snake Plissken]

She went blonde? JK

Took a shot of my Murasama earlier.

You should add some gloss paint too!

 

[Jameson Rook]

My first time sculpting anything in my life. Let me know if something's wrong.

 

[Snake Plissken]

I definitely see the TTS hair in that sculpt.

Been working on another Naked Snake using the new head sculpted by Cloudfilter. It has always been my fav sculpt of Nake Snake from MGS3. I think it captures the in-game look perfectly.

Painted the head and gave the outfit a complete retailoring and weathering.

 

[elvis1976]

Some more pics. I still need to weather and add the belt.

 

[Henry Morgan*]

that looks perfect

...wish HT make that version

Nice rifle.... and yes that in-game Naked Snake head.

That looks amazing elvis, what material did you use for his bandana extension? is that detachable?

Thanks guys!

It's a piece of fabric folded in two with a wire inside. I painted it to match the bandana on the head. With the wire I can pose the tail how I want.

Great Idea, I don't have one for my Hot toys naked snake, I might try that technique, I was gonna cut off a rubber cape toy to make one but you just saved him .

 

[optical20]

Thanks for the tip Elvis, one more question. How would I attach it to the hole on the back of his head?

 

[elvis1976]

I made the tail smaller on the end and glue it inside the hole.

Anyone parting out a Hot toys Snake?Im looking for some parts to complete my custom Tiger stripe Snake

 

[Jameson Rook]

Does anybody knows what kind of boots Sniper Wolf is wearing? I'm getting a Hot Toys PSG1 and a new pair of boots for her. Maybe I can use an unlaced male boots?
