so, the idea/basis for most of my joe customs is that Cobra has won, and is in control of most of the world. G.I joe is the main resistance group, although many of its original members are dead, and many new ones have joined. so, to start:
Snake Eyes II
the apprentice to SE before he goes MIA, she takes his place as the hand to hand combat expert

 torso, arms: ROC baroness
legs: ROC agent Helix
head: ROC paris pursuit snake eyes
coat: POTC figure

Glitch
the tech expert for the Joe unit, Glitch usually supports the group by hacking cobra computer networks, and setting up communications with other anti-cobra cells. in combat situations, he uses combat droids and turrets (designed and built by himself)



head: ROC ripcord
body: wolverine/marvel sabertooth
lower arms: delta-6 suit
coat: paris pursuit snake eyes

Scarlett
Scarlett
part of the original joe team, Scarlett salvaged one of the few remaining combat suits. she wears it at almost all times. she's also traded in her crossbow for a heavier AK-57


simple enough, just put the head of a 25th scarlett on the body of ROC suit scarlett, and repainted the hair

Duke (prisoner outfit)
i imagined Duke, being the leader of the joes, being captured by cobra, and sent to one of their many prison/labor camps. he wears a brace on his hand as it was crushed by a cobra officer.





the freeman
sometimes, life imitates art. sometimes, a crazy guy takes a video game too seriously, thinking it is some kind of prophetic message. in either case, Gordon Freeman took on the persona of the video game hero of the same name. using a (presumed stolen) accelerator suit, he'd been fighting a one man war against cobra troops, using only a 9MM pistol, and of course, a crowbar.




wild west
an expert in antique weapons, wild west joined the team after he was caught attempting to loot one of the joes safe houses. impressed by his sharpshooting skills, and general hatered of whatever authority happened to be in power, Scarlett recruited him to the team.




body is paris pursuit snake eyes, head and coat are X-men origins sabertooth, forget where everything else is from, haha.

Doc
a french doctor who runs a small clinic. while not a true joe, he's sympathetic to their cause, and has been known to help care for injured joes.




Duke(millitary uniform)




Mr. White
not much is known about mr. white, although he has helped joes escape from cobra forces before. he is always acompanied by the gas-mask wearing child.


nightwalker
specializing in covert entry and sabotage. he is also a skilled marksman.


parts:
head: shockblast
torso: ROC air raid
arms: ROC air raid
legs: shockblast

some basic infantry soldiers from all over the world

a couple points: the Russian guy is black because he underwent pigment darkening for an undercover mission. the darkening is starting to wear off though, making some parts of his skin seem lighter than others. the bald girl is a ROC covergirl, with hair removed and face sanded down. i intended to give her hair, but, in the end thought she looked better without it. the story i came up with for her is that she's a cancer survivor or something. and finally, how could i NOT make the Sean Connery gun scottish? :thumbs-up:

cobra forces
had most of these finished forever, figure'd i'd finally try and post em
destro:
just put ROC destro head on POC cobra commander. I imagined all the high-ranking cobra officers (destro, CC, baroness, etc) would wear armor similar to this


Fumbles

i had to!
also, if anyone know's what figure is used in the video for calvin, let me know
head: ROC red fang ninja (or whatever it's called)
body: desert viper

princess (aka, jailbait) (yes i will come up with a better name later, this was the first thing that came to mind with the personality i've come up with)
the "daughter" of destro and baroness, she was grown in a vat by combining their DNA, and accelerating the aging process (she is genetically age 17). she's also been modified to be extremely flexible, and as a point of vanity, her feet were altered to a shape compatible with high-heeled boots.

face: ROC Scarlett
hair: ROC covergirl
body: agent helix
legs: baroness
the Delta weapon
Cobra's top biological weapon, Project Delta is a ruthless assassin with superhuman abilities. nanites within his body act as a protective barrier against physical damage (including bullets) and can work to repair damage incurred from lasers or radiation. he is able to cast various elements from his hands, by injecting different types nanites and plasma-like chemical combinations into himself.

troops:

1) demo viper

not much to say, just based on the TF2 demoman, haha =P
2) forest Viper

forget the parts breakdown on this, but i just really liked the way the rebel helmet looked over the neo-viper helmet.
3) non-customs

i kind of imagined Night Adder as being destro's personal bodyguard, while the elite viper with tactical gear would be like a police officer, and the Alley viper would be SWAT officers~

Very Nice, thank you for posting your customs!  I love your Snake Eyes II figure, with or with out the trench coat!

[bandonov]

Were did you get the wall that you used in the background?

[dodge822]

great work keep it up

[morgardee]

Huh. Colour me impressed. Good back story and some good part swapping.

My main question is what paint are you using? Some of it looks a bit thick and chipping and I suspect you are painting the same way I use paint.

BTW, you get a timbit!

[CC972]

bandonov: i got it from a yard sale (its actually 5 smaller walls stacked together) but i believe it came from one of those little christmas village displays or something

morgardee: mostly use cheap acrylic paint and sealer, sometimes use testors or game workshops model paints too, but they warp the plastic so i try and avoid them.....

[5h4rK]

I love that Glitch character.. a mask would be cool for him!

[bandonov]

Thanks for the info!  now to search for something like it...

[grunt 4 mvp]

Cool back-story. Lots of effort.     
Awesome stuff.
My first suggestion is to add another couple of obscure old Joes. Not Flint or someone we'd expect to have survived.....how about a futuristic Barbecue or a Repeater with an updated gun. Just something to show the randomness of survival. I like the way you had Duke aged and with a crushed hand. Consider scars, burns or injuries to these guys too.
My second suggestion is though the Snake Eyes 2 looks great, the head stands out because it doesn't have the same look. Scuff up the head or put a scratch on the visor - help it blend in.
Thanks for sharing!!!!
