Black Shadow

Post by Muton »

Something my memory lied to me about was a 'black red shadow' from my childhood, so I made one!

I found it much easier to carefully paint around the logo than paint a new one!
He looks really sinister and compliments the 'army' nicely!

I originally did black 'eyes' on a white stripe in the style of a Red Shadow but it looked poor, so I went for the white goggle stripe instead. The rifle is from Marauder inc. who are great to deal with, and VERY high quality.

Yeah thats right, i tried using the dtc crimson guards and wasnt too happy so went back to the original guards... Hope they are coming along well and great custom Muton too...

I just need some shadow heads to have a go at one, hadnt thought of it being a single character but I think thats the way to go...
