One of the things the
G.I. Joe mythos certainly has is a lot of different ninjas! It only makes sense for my
G.I. Joe Project to include a few as well. I have more planned and have been scouring the web for ninja models to use.
Ninja Vipers are the elite of the
Cobra Viper ranks. Consequently I am treating them as lesser to the
Red Ninja Viper in game terms for my gaming using
Squad Wars, so formidable in close combat but the least of the ninja types as it were. And the Ninja Viper is certainly outclassed by the likes of
Snake Eyes, Storm Shadow and
Jinx.
I started the mini a while ago, but as usual got side-tracked. While painting up a squad of other minis (I never enjoy batch painting these days), I decided I need something finished fast and picked up the
Ninja Viper again and was able to finish the painting quite quickly. August has been a lean month overall on the painting front, but I hope the work I have done helps me into September's outputs.
