Here's a project I started a couple years back after I received the Crimson Cobra Commander. I really enjoyed the figure, but wanted to take a crack at a helmeted sculpt.
I also wanted to maintain the feel of the cobra trooper helmet for CC, so I decided to use it as a base to modify. Looking back it would have been a lot easier to do a completely new sculpt for the helmet. Who knows, I still may do just that... The headsculpt and facemask are all scratch. Still working on buckles and straps for the reveal...
Recently, I purchased the Helmeted CC and was happy to discover that my new sculpt fit the newer figure (after some light demo), as well . I wasn't holding my breathe as the old figure is much smaller...
Here are some work in progress pictures of the sculpt thus far.
Cheers,
