Paul, your customs are fantastic, but I am even more impressed by your photographs.

Could I commission you to redo the entire toy archive? Um. For free?

Great work Paul! I love your divers too! It makes such a difference doing two of each design, it seems to make them more real!

Ultimate Soldier XD - Hugo Wolf

I'm currently using another one to make a series 1 German Commander, its a great base figure to use, but its too tall.

You have to take about 8mm off the legs to make it fit the AF range.

nice work mate, have decided if i get anymore toy work or a get a biggish design job anytime soon im putting some money towards scoring me some shads!



Ross, if you are strapped for cash, just buy the repro custom heads - they'll do the same job and cost way less....

Where did all the Shad heads come from? I love the Ironblood homage ( he he ) from The Kraken.



The Shadow heads, Chopper, came from... erm.... Red Shadow figures!

Ok, I admit... I AM Johnigoe! :doc: :doc: [I'm not really...]


I can't find the correct comic story for the Red Shadows in winter trench coats. I remember the comic pic vividly in my head, but I can't find iin the archive. It's not from Codename Kraken as I've checked, but its obviously from one of the stories set in a very cold and snowy climate.

If someone could provide a link for it please it would be great.
