CUSTOM ZARTAN COBRA G.I. JOE TOY [MARVEL LEGENDS SCALE] BY DSNG!

Something new for 2018!
This Zartan custom was sitting on the bench for a while; but I honestly had fun working on it.
The base figure was Marvel Legends Wonderman. The hood and belt came from Taskmaster. The bow came from Hawkeye, and I had to sculpt everything else [boots, gauntlets, body armor, gun holsters, looping sword holsters, long quiver and long arrows etc]. His three arrows were made long on purpose [via the interior ink barrels of clicky pens], so that he could hold them in a dynamic pose. The bow was heavily customized as well.

After sculpting, Zartan was hand-painted with Tamiya acrylics and I  painted his eyes white in their cores [thus getting rid of the former red], before adding the classic black face paint to him.

He carries about 5 guns and two swords, along with his customized bow and 3 heat-seeking arrows. The large "WTF JUDGE Dredd HandGun" held in his right hand is the only weapon that can't be stored on his body via a magnet or holster.
The last three pics show his back without the custom rectangular quiver, so that you can see the large machine gun being vertically stored via a magnet, as well as a hidden handgun behind his belt. Stay tuned for more!

   
  
    

   
  

That last pic is obviously a different guy named Sylencer [One of my Original Characters from the DSNG Sci Fi Series]. Anyway, you may need to click on the word link that says "Read More", below on the right, to see the rest of the Behind-The-Scenes sculpting pics in this gallery!
