Kitbash Snow Trooper

And here's a kitbash snow trooper with parts and accessories from GI Joe. I especially liked the mask which goes well with the look.




This is my favorite shot

    Did you cut the holes for the white colour balacava yourself? It looks a bit weird..

    no, desmond, the balaclava came as part of a GI Joe 1/6 scale accessory set. It was cut and then the edges hardened to keep from fraying - quality wasn't as good as those we get today but then, I haven't seen anybody else do white winter camouflage since 2001.

    Quite pretty (my favorite is your SASs ^^ I posted some comments in BBI SAS page a few weeks ago). But there is not a lot of 'arctic' soldiers with white camo that we can buy?

    Hi again :) Thanks for dropping by and commenting. It lets me know I'm not alone haha About arctic soldiers, no company is releasing them at the moment. It's all a waiting game hoping some 1/6 manufacturer will release some arctic troopers.
