BIG BOSS and MGS3 Naked Snake Custom (Updated NEW PICS)
Here's my latest custom work, MGS3 BIG BOSS. MGS is my favorite game series and MGS3 is my favorite one of all. I just finished MGS3 for the 6th time, no alerts this time and I unlocked the Stealth camo. I've already decided that there is no way MGS4 can top this, but I would like to be surprised.
So I picked up the only RAH Snake I could get, croc cap. I like this head the most with the eye patch and the splitter camo. I would still like to get a Zombie face paint version and deck him out in all black BDUs. I really love the tiger stripe, but unfortunately I missed out on the 1st Version, so I made my own more accurate tiger stripe version. This is my favorite camo combo in the game, Splitter face with Tiger Stripe.
I used Hot Toys tiger stripe pants and vest from the Vietnam Navy Seals figures. The pant had to be altered at the waist, very simple. The jacket however had to be made. I took the grenade vest from the M60 gunner and removed all the grenade pouches, a very time intensive task and I resized the width of the vest. Then I got another pair of TS pants and I used the legs and altered them into sleeves. I kept the pocket from the left leg and used that as the left sleeve pocket. I resized the width of the sleeves and then made the cuffs, then finally sewed them into the vest to make a complete jacket.

Next is the weapons, I'm all about the weapons so I got a ton of them all exact models from the game. Some Hot Toys, some Dragon. So far I have, M1911A1 w/suppressor, XM16E1 w/suppressor, HT MK22 w/suppressor, HT Stoner M63A, HT SVD, Dragon Custom Patriot. Also 2 guns that should have been in the game, HT M60, and Dragon XM-177E1 Commando Carbine.
Hot Toys SVD
Dragon Custom made Patriot Assault Pistol. Fairly easy custom, I got the appropriate early model M16, chopped it, made the muzzle break for it, and added the Beta drum mags. This is the weapon "The Boss" uses against Snake and then at the end of the game she gives the weapon to Snake after she is beaten and he kills her with one final bullet from the Patriot. Then it is unlocked in the game for you to play with and it has infinite ammo. If you ever played through using the Patriot you know how much it kicks ass.
The last thing "The Boss" ever saw.
Dragon K-Bar Survival Knife. Compared to the knife that Snake comes with, this one is much more accurate and larger.
Dragon XM-177E1 Commando Carbine with dual mags
I am really pleased with the result, I think this tiger stripe pattern looks more accurate than the original version. Overall the fatigues are much more detailed with weathering, buttons, and the way they fit.

Re: BIG BOSS MGS3 Snake Custom
Thanks guys, I am finally done messing with this one. Now I have so many weapons I decided to do another figure. Next is a Zombie face paint version, but I'm changing out the BDUs to all black. I'm going for a super stealthy looking Snake for sneaking and night missions, going to call it Ghost Snake. I always liked all black with skull face combo in the game. His weapons will be the SVD, AK47, and MK22. After seeing Tony's Snakes I really wish I could get a hold of a 1st version with no eye patch so I could do a Solid Snake version.
