Hi all. Ever since I bought Cottonmouth a couple yrs ago, it has annoyed the heck outta me that Hasbro cheaped out & never included a much needed alternate open mouth version. Cottonmouth's main ability is to open his augmented jaws about a foot wide and literally bite someone's head off. For along time I tried to figure out how to find the right way to do this & I was looking thru my fodder bin & noticed I had an extra Tiger Shark head & a Morbius the Vampire head that would be perfect for what I wanted to do. So I went about dremmeling out my extra Cottonmouth face and sanding & shaping it up so I could fit the face of Tiger Shark that I had sliced off and made to fit inside Cottonmouth's cowl. I then glued the face in , used aves sculpty to fill in the discrepencies and then primed the head grey, then painted it. For Morbius I had to slice the head in half just below the eyes & then cut the mouth in half to have the upper & lower jaws/teeth separate. I then cut another extra Cottonmouth head I had in half & sliced off his face below the eyes as well. I then used aves sculpt to start sculpting the elongated jaw effect and this was my 1st time doing this type of face/jaw swapping so I was nervous I was gonna mess it up & lose 2 good head sculpts in the process. but I think it came out pretty good and after priming the head grey and then painting it, I now have 2 more alternate heads I can throw on Cottonmouth that simulate his power better

Wow !!! This is cool !!! Would love to try something like this, but I’m SUPER allergic to Aves and all other epoxy resins. If you made a cast of these I’d sure buy them. Great job. Too bad Hasbro dropped the ball and didn’t include the extra head.

Really dig these alternate heads.. That's how this figure should have came.
