looking good on chacal noir, although I can see some green in his legs where they attach to his hip section but its a minor point. Great work though keep it up.

Those are the touch-ups I still have to do  :). But thanks, you saw through exactly through what's left to be done.

To finish him off I'd also suggest the silver cobra logo from cobrastickers.com. You nailed the look of the figure, but the real pop comes from the logo.

Thanks Raptor. As mentionned before, I was already planning on buying from Cobrastickers.com so the sticker will be on its way soon - I'll update the pic very soon.

Rereading your post i realize that I skipped the part where you said you were already working on the logo.  :P

If you are going to do the grey undersleeve, I suggest marking the arm with a shallow cut with an xacto all the way around it to mark where the sleeve will end. Unless you have a very steady hand, that is the easiest way to get the undershirt  to have a crisp edge look. 

But again, you don't have to do that. I could imagine that the original CN wouldn't have an undershirt. ;-)

And Damn! You have good eyes Raptor! Yes the "U.S" on the beltbuckle was a major oversight from me. i meant to change it, but in the end I'm going to jump to other things and get back to it eventually.
