guess I had to do the inevitable... I finally got a few zombie cobra troopers, and had an extra storm trooper... and this is the result:




Not the most complicated or glamorous custom, but I like it...

Oh yeah, I think it looks good. Well, ghoulish? I don't know how I am supposed to describe a zombie I think is good. On the fp.

Looks good, Devin. I like the ripped armor and battle damage.

I have never been big on the whole zombie thing, but you did an excellent job. It looks creepy good.

Wow Devin, your painting skills are getting honed bigtime! I like it.

That pose with the knife looks sweet! On the front page.

That is a cool figure for sure! Love the sculpting and gun mods! There are 2 things that kind of stick out to me. The helmet is very tall, especialy for a female. Is that a Clone bucket on top of a mando helmet? The other thing is the combat boots. They look a bit too real world/army issued. I would love to see you do some sculpting over them rather than switch them out as the articulation is so good. Just my  opinion on the details, your paint work is looking great! I really like that camo!

A normal sized mando bucket wouldn't fit this figures abnormally large head...  So I bashed the front faceplate of a mando bucket onto an old clone trooper helmet.  The helmet looks oddly tall I know, but the only other way to fix it would've been to use alternate heads and I just don't like doing that.

My explanation is that it's an advanced helmet that has various technology stuffed into it and the larger dome is where all that is housed?...   lol

and for me, the boots are no big deal.  They make sense for a jungle environment.  I thought about trying to bash on other feet and attempt to keep the articulation, but I decided not to risk it.

Really like these last two customs Devin.  That Zombie Viper body is great for the Death Troopers.  I made one too.  I'm hoping to find more of those figures so I can make an entire legion of Death Troopers.

Ah, there you go being just like me with that technology explanation! LOL! I see what you mean about wanting a removable helmet and agree. It is a hassle keeping up with 2 heads for 1 figure. That is cool with the boots I was just trying to give you a push to do more sculpting as that breast plate turned out so good.

The breast plate is not sculpting.  It's carved into the existing figure's chest.  I took my exacto knife and scored the basic details then went over it with a diamond tipped engraver tool on my dremel. 

This is the figure before the modifications:
