Wave 5 Valor vs Venom Viper

I don't believe in the Python Patrol (or other similar subsets). So when I saw
this figure I thought, here's a good way to practice painting a variety of details and repeating it on the same figure. This is not a figure repaint as much as it is a "production run" of a custom. The color choices were obvious; more of an upgrade of the older Viper gear using a new sculpt with similar colors.

Vipers are the front line assault troops of Cobra. To be promoted within Cobra, you have to do time as a Viper with the hope of promotion to something "safer" like the Motor, Air, or Sea Viper pools. If you're incredibly lucky, maybe you can join the ranks of the Night Vipers, Rock Vipers, S.A.W. Vipers or even the Snow Serpents and Eels.
