FOr the rapelling harness you can use the metal boss one. It's accurate.
For the vest there is non in black colour.

For mine I used this one dye in black

For the boots the DAMN vietnam boots are perfect.

I wonder if the new MC toys snow gear could work for a MGS1 Soldier with a bit of modding?

 

[bedil_bengkung]

Hmmmm..... great idea Frank, just get rid the pockets in the jacket and it would be perfect. But if this jacket and pants are a little bit bulky it would be more perfect for Snow soldier in MGS1. (IMHO)

 

[Frank Jaeger]

Yeah you could always pad the jacket and pants out too

I need to match the colors of the hands and the head, and thinking of repainting both just to match them for one of my customs. Any suggestions on what type of paint/color that you guys usually use for the skin color? Specifically for old guys like Old Snake/Ocelot/Big Boss.

 

[bedil_bengkung]

Hufffttttt....... at last got Barney Ross body, but still can't find the right material for Direct Action Suit.
Maybe i gonna skip Naked Snake then do Punished Snake BDU first.

Any ideas for suit fabric or materials????

 

[elvis1976]

Any type of matte black fake leater should work. SOmething stretchy and matte.


In the meantime here's some more pics of my Punished Snake. SOme crappy one but some pics

Curious, how did you do the arm swap? Looks like the Metal Boss hand painted.

 

[DeathlyFighter]

Also, what are the chances of getting any MGS work by Amnur?

The foreamrs portion is a stormtrooper gauntlet, the hands is an articualted iron man hand.

I dremeled the barney ross foreamrs to be able to slide the gauntlet.

 

[DeathlyFighter]

Awesome, thanks for the help. Can only hope to make one on par with yours.

3 months or something and still not 100% done:

But I'm almost there...

 

[Frank Jaeger]

Looks good

You thought about painting the tash to join up to the beard?

 

[karamazov80]

What hands are folks using for Naked Snake bashes? Are those from the Medicom figure? And what are folks using for that leg wrap?

Thanks!
But no, the idea was to make the facecamo, to look like this:

But I still need a better brush and darker colors (black).

The hands are Metal Boss. Medicom hands sux.

So you managed to find 'metal boss' hands , awesome looking.
It seems perfect, what's missing?

 

[Octavarium]

Thanks, man!
Yeah, finally found those hands.

It's missing the kneepad and work on some weathering...
