Default Females!

Greetings all!

Cobra needs more females in the ranks. Making Night Stalkers is easy. But how about Vipers? Or Crimson Guards? I want female versions of them. So I'm looking around for recipe's, how-to's, etc, for doing female versions of Vipers and Crimson Guards, using 25th and/or ROC figures.

Advice? Direction?

Well, at the risk of pointing you towards some really ugly, awkward and stupid looking customs, you might try joecustoms.com I don't go there myself anymore, but they got lots of stuff to go through.

I went there and got depressed. Google has some nice pics, but recipe is needed. The best place on the Net for anything like this, I believe, is here.

I have recipe ideas for 0-rings but not for 25. I would think the night creeper body would work changing the head or adding hair@ you can just mold (excuse me as I say breasts lol) onto the body of the different vipers! I say that would be the easiest bet!

Well, an O-ring idea might lead to some ideas for the 25th/ROC lines. Please share the recipe if you don't mind.

Check these out at Guru-Planet:
http://store.guru-planet.com/customfigures.html

There's a couple feamle Vipers and a female trooper. The recipes look pretty straight forward, just a reapiant of a femail figure with the Viper/Trooper vest or harness. A couple of the Vipers look like thay have the Baroness disguise vest that came with Lady Jaye from Spy Troops. Not perfect, but you can tell what the customiser was going for.

I'd say start with a 25th Scarlett. Her body suit is skin tight, so it's essentially like your starting with a naked body on which to mold or paint, some Baroness versions might work as well.

Some people, when trying to avoid thinking about those things that cause them pain, turn to drink, or perhaps food, or drugs... I turn not to any of those... I collect action figures, turning my mind to the hunt, so that I might find a mote of peace... Over the years, I've found that alcoholism is much more socially acceptable by far.

also try ebay. put gi joe custom and there's some on there that posts female cobra figures that you can surely get ideas from. http://cgi.ebay.com/GI-Joe-25th-Cus...=item4a9f8391d3
Another idea is to check Target for some of those $2 cover girls and use that body with some 25th viper vests and helmets.

You mean like this?





Duplicate figures using casted Comic Pack Gas trooper heads, Comic Pack Scarlett torsos and waists, Neurotoxin/Sand Scorpion Legs, and Bombstrike arms.

Is for constructive criticism (will even settle for destructive) just anything but "Nice shot" or "Awesome".

C'mon Thinktank, women in combat totally wear skintight clothing with poor covering over their breasts. Female customizers on Joecustoms.com know what they're doing!
