Revolver Ocelot . . . the only man to ever survive the Metal Gear Solid series (apart from Solid Snake).  Ocelot is one of the more cooler characters in the game.  His specialty in "torturing" always make me smirk when I think about him.  Old school pistols and that silver-haired pony tail of his just makes Revolver Ocelot all that much more hip.

Here's another rather long and strenuous project.  After making Solid Snake, I had the sudden urge to make all the cool MGS villains in the game.  Revolver Ocelot is the first, of many, villains that I plan to do from the MGS series.  I still have Olga and a few others still in the works so check back soon.

The head is another modified DML World War II guy that I sanded the hair down, repainted and sculpted the moustache on.  The original headsculpt look quite good and I didn't qutie see Ocelot in it.  But once the moustache and hair came on, I said to myself "now that's Ocelot."

Revolver Ocelot's hair was rather difficult for several reasons.  Pulling rooted hair back into a pony tail is not hard, but getting it to look smooth and nicely pulled tight like real hair is the difficult part.  Rooted hair seems rather hard to pull off primarily because it's, well, plastic, and leaves the head looking thick.  Instead of rooting his entire head, I rooted just around the hairline, with a very small amount of hair in each plug to get it slimmed down when the actual tying begins.  The result turned out rather well.

Believe it or not, the easiest part on Ocelot was sculpting on his little Western-styled moustache.  I just took Apoxie sculpt clay and started sculpting it on.
