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
Old blue eyes
Other "Arctic Warriors" - Dragon 10th Mountain Division "Ryan" (link here), G.I. Joe Snow Trooper (link here), GI Joe "Rescue of the Lost Squadron" (link here) and Action Man Ski Patrol (link here)
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.
Yeah let me know if you see (or rather buy lol) some kind of arctic commando. Do you know the brasilian commando BOPE? There is even movies about them ^^

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