FAN FEATURE FRIDAY #191 - SNAKE EYES: COMMANDO EDITION

๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ

Hear that? Of course you didn't. He doesn't make a sound...

Snake Eyes makes a stealthy return rocking his all-black commando gear. Armed to the teeth with everything from handguns to C-4, heโ€™s a one-man army. A master of martial arts and mystery, Snake Eyes is the G.I. Joe teamโ€™s ultimate silent weapon.

Sometimes, silence speaks louder than words. Keep quiet and scroll on to see how Townshend, Simon, Charlie, Anthony, Grayson and Carlos photographed this ninja-commando.


Name: Townshend (@offtheshelfpictures)
Location: Canada
Inspiration: For inspiration, I wanted to try and recreate the GI Joe Origins Issue 8 variant comic cover by Tom Feister! I loved the posing he did in his artwork with Snake Eyes rappelling upside down - I tried as best I could to do that cover justice!

Name: Simon (@sime_on_toast)
Location: Texas, US
Inspiration: When many of us think of Snake Eyes we think stealthy or Ninja. With this photo, I wanted to focus more on urban infiltration and destroying Cobra weapon caches.

Name: Charlie (@boba_chuck)
Location: New York, US
Inspiration: Snake Eyes was always agile and involved in so much action. I wanted to capture that with this image. He was such a mysterious and cool character that one can't help but take pictures of him!

Name: Anthony (@batbomb82_mezco_reviews)
Location: California, US
Inspiration: Mezco has been making my favorite G.I. Joe figures and in my opinion, they have made the perfect Commando Snake Eyes. I cannot wait to see what the future holds for this sub-line.

Name: Grayson (@the_melatonin_ronin)
Location: Texas, US
Inspiration: My inspiration came from the GI Joe movies that have Snake Eyes performing crazy feats of acrobatics mixed with combat, and I tried to capture that in my post!

Name: Carlos (@thebadassreviews)
Location: Florida, US
Inspiration: Snake-eyes has been my favorite character in the whole G, I Joe line since I was a little kid and the Commando look was my favorite of all. Mezco did an amazing job by portraying Commando Snake-Eyes in the best way possible, the overall look is fantastic and makes it very easy to pose and have fun. I used a small amount of props in the background to highlight this amazing piece of art. Yo-Joe!
