Cobra Eel -- Reaper Squadron

[kt174]

This is one of few Cobra troopers that I am working on at the moment. I am want them to look more "real world" military style. EELs are supposed to be Cobra's version of SEALS, so I figured I would make an EEL doing land based ops. He is the first of several EELS I am going to make. I did some sculpting on the helmet for the side rails, not the best, but a good first try. Let me know what you guys think.

I also included a few WIP pictures and also a couple of higher resolution pics of him as well, in the thumbnails.

That vest is sweet! Looking like a bad mofo already man.

Thanks guys, hopefully will turn out OK.

I like the vest. The two holsters are pretty cool.

Very, very cool.

Looks good. For me personally, I don't see EEL though. I know they are SEAL equivalents but I see them as specialized divers, and that's why Cobra has Vipers. Still, it's a bad ass modern military Cobra soldier!

OOOH! Snappy!
I like to see the Eels out of water from time to time, although it is incredibly hard to divorce them from their usual design motif.

 

[Obi-Shinobi]

They all look great! Nicely done...

Thanks guys for all the comments, I really enjoyed making these guys especially the EEL Assaulter. I wish I knew how to cast heads and gear. I could use several of his heads and tac vests.
