Wow Ski I must say Serpentor is fantastic. And I don't really like him I'm a Cobra Commander supporter.

Thought the same thing but was to chicken to say it.

Blame Hot Toys. Those heads are on HotToys bodies. If the neck looks to long, that's how they'd look on the bodies anyway, without the outfits.

Yeah, Hot Toys seems to have a thing for giraffe neck, but it sounds like Ski has the heads just perched on the necks so they look even longer right now:

Yea, you can actually snap it down further, I like the huge traps look but it's just personal preference, muscles: go figure right? So I pop up the neck a lil more than it should sit but it can snap down fully, the armor pleather materials is soft enough to give.

I hadnt notice until now, but I think Maglor is right, Ski has the heads perched on top of the neck joint. The HT necks are not THAT long.

I wouldn't have pegged you as a Melodic Death Metal kind of guy. Very Cool.

I agree that they are perfect for working out to. It makes you feel like you are going into battle!.

There's a lot that many wouldn't peg me for, my full time job is one of them

Thank you fellas always a pleasure to bring you my creations, I hope everyone enjoys them as much as I do making them.

Snapped another pic today once I got home with the head fully down, I'm happy with it regardless, I love the oversize trap look and I think we forget how big they made the T-800 also...

edit: oops, forgot the snakes , oh well you guys get the gist.

I think he looks way better with the head all the way in place. Looks more natural.

I get what you're saying about the huge traps, but looking at the deltoids gives away the length of the neck. And the traps looks plenty huge with the neck snapped in place.

Not really:

Re: Ski's GI JOE Customs etc... (Serpentor Update FINISHED w/ Vid P.82 Post #812)

Yea I like it as well, I think I might of had it a lil higher than I expected on Serps.

NE, I'll keep him where he's at since it's not exactly human and I had this kind of build for him in mind.

As you can see the delts are pretty low if you have massive traps!!! I wish I could build this on myself

Re: Ski's GI JOE Customs etc... (Serpentor Update WIP P.77 Post #768)

Just to clarify:


I think that the neck like this:

...totally mirrors the look of a real life big dude:

But this just looks like a really long neck:

Again, huge traps:

Giraffe neck:

Not enough of a difference to be noticeable. It actually looks like Ski just pushed up the chest padding.

Finally had a chance to sit down and check out the vid, Ski! F'n glorious stuff, man! Love how it takes you through just about every stage of the process. Certainly a real labor of love! Appreciate the shoutout as well!

Yeah, it looks like the chest padding is pushed up to stay tight to the neck.

serpentor looks amazing, bro. the detail is insane! top to bottom just outstanding work. he might be my favorite joe custom of yours yet. which is saying a lot because your b.a.t. was freaking fantabulous.

Re: Ski's GI JOE Customs etc... (Serpentor Update FINISHED w/ Vid P.82 Post #812)

Ski, it SHOULD seem that there is no place to go but down from this point.

But I have a feeling you'll find a way to top yourself again.

Of course, Slaughter's still in cue.

Re: Ski's GI JOE Customs etc... (Serpentor Update FINISHED w/ Vid P.82 Post #812)

Looks more natural to my eye. I can see a Bautista type body under that.

Again, you killed it Meaty.
