^ no pod mount, no mask
^ base model
details
^ remember little sam telling amelie about quipus? well, higgs got two made out of twine. i wonder what he counts on them. they are a part of the base model and thus cannot be taken off. one is near his right protection plate (the hexagon with white stripe), the other one is under the ammo pouch on his left thigh
^ glove up close. the golden protector part is black here, cause i didnt plug in the corresponding texture
^ you got 60 seconds before the grenades go off. the grenade on our right is a separate object from the other two, most likely to make it easier for the animator to do the throwing animation. the pouches hold three clips for an assault rifle, you can see the top parts of the clips if the pouches are hidden. all three are a single object, so i doubt they actually leave the pouch
^ standard terrorist boots. same looking pair can be stolen from terrorist camps (they'll have a harder time tracking you down if you wear these, according to wiki)
^ unsurprisingly, the protection plate says "protection plate" and arm protector says "arm protector"
^ text on the gas mask (left) and on the bb pod tube thingy (right). the hood text says "ear protection Lv. 03" and the tube says "!!caution!! use designated tool to remove bolt"
^ i think i could safely bet on troy baker having pierced ears, cause the photoscanned texture includes a faint indication of it

disclaimer - the skull mask texture and the hair texture are not original (the og didnt port properly), so they look a bit different than in the game.
hair texture is by DA user Kanbara914
otherwise, this is the original Higgs model developed by Kojima Productions
trope i really like is self-loathing characters desperate for the catharsis of punishment for frankly rather selfish reasons who r also obsessed with repeatedly pressing others into hating them and hurting them as essentially a method of self harm. yes baby continue making it worse for urself and everybody around u instead of doing an actually productive and effective journey of improvement and redemption
Ocelots outfits in the fic A Sunday Kind of Love by theadventuresof! + messy sketch of the scene where ocelot has a fat roll of cash
This is one of my favorite bosselot fics ever…. and i love ocelot’s outfit descriptions. fanfic writers if you describe an outfit i will kiss u . tho its especially fun with ocelot bc hes always wearing some loud gayass fit
otacon really was the character of all time. he was openly cringe about anime. he called himself an otaku unapologetically. he was married to a military-sanctioned clone. he had three separate types of trauma based around various relationships with the women in his life. he had daddy issues. he was gay. he was trans. he was even jewish.
