Snake Eyes would do anything to catch his father’s killer, even betray his buddy Tommy “Storm Shadow” Arashikage ( Andrew Koji), the main heir to the clandestine Arashikage ninja clan. I decided to add more stability to the chest armor, I added some custom straps to allow better security.Snake Eyes must avenge his father ( Steven Allerick), who was executed by an assassin ( Samuel Finzi) on behalf of Cobra, a cabal of flamboyantly dressed terrorists. Wrapped the chest with Carbon Fiber, and modded my sword. Here is a little prototype drawing of what I HOPE the armor would look like I got these sweet gloves! pricey, but sooo worth it! I went to the mall with my sis, went shopping, and I went to Oakley. I used tape to mount the onto my under suit as test fitment.ĭid the same with the shoulder Armor (I ended up cutting them smaller) I drew the armor on pieces of paper and cut the shapes out of foam. I bought foam, cut up some old duffle bags, and backpacks to make my armor. After talking to friends, I was convinced I should not give up and continue working. Later on I added carbon FIberĪnd then the FINAL accents! Carbon FIber!! MORE SANDING! and I also Tinted the Visor. Took a break from the helmet, and decided to work on some weapons!īack to the helmet! I Drilled some breather holes in the front mouth plate, and added a strip/molding around the helmet for match the visor.Įvery night after work, I would come home and SAND SAND SAND! I sketched them out in cardboard cut them, and bonded them using the same process. Fiberglass and resin to harden the cardboard, and bonded the helmet pieces together. Measured it out and taped the modded helmets together.Īfter I measured it out, I used cardboard to make the space i needed. I bought a kid’s snake eyes mask from target to use as a base, and some kid’s baseball helmets to cut them a part. I decided to use Retaliation as a point of reference and create something custom and from my own imagination. I was going to go for 100% movie accuracy, but I was limited on supplies and tools. I drew out some sketches on how I wanted it to look. Joe retaliation, and I almost LOST IT! Skipping forward, the Snake Eyes in retaliation was SICK!!! I decided that for once, I am going to take my time, and make a suit that I can be proud of and to keep forever (unlike my halfassed costumes in the past). This guy, is young, successful, and all around cool as shit.

That is where I met an incredible and inspiring person…Jon M Chu. My all time favorite Joe, is none other than SNAKE EYES! As a b-boy, I was able to work on movies such as Step up 2, and Step up 3D.

Hey everyone! As you all may know, I am a huge fan of transformers, and of course G.I.
