Default Mod Cornor: T-1

Greetings!

Found a Terminator T-1 at Walmart today, for about the price of a figure. So, being impressed with the many photos of folks using the T-1, I bought my own. But, it really needs to be customized for use as a COBRA item. The Joes have their Pack-Rats, COBRA needs their own, and they don't really have anything like that except for BATs.

Usually the color for modding something into a COBRA vehicle is black or blue. Black seems too simple a color--details get lost. Blue might not fit right for a T-1. All I know is it's gotta be customized, but I'm at a loss for which direction to take it. Ideas anyone?

How about a camo paint job? You could do woodland or urban or whatnot depending on where you're most likely to use one.

The camo sounds good. Although woodland doesn't sound very Cobra-ish. If camo, maybe city/urban. I do like the suggestion.

However, I am also not familiar with Cobra vehicles after 1989. If any were in camo, could someone provide a photo or link?

I think camo for that era would be "Fun House Orange," "Plum Crazy" and "Hideous Neon Yellow (Now with 30% more Hideous)." I have the same problem, I think Urban would fit in with its look and its tracked-ness.

I love how if you make the thing roll, the turret swivels back and forth like it's hunting for hew-mons!

I started painting it. So far black as a base coat. Not sure which camo will be the final result, or if it'll be simply blue/black combination.
