Blood for the Baron!

A few weeks back I started on a driver project. Just painted a BBQ head red. Popped it onto Crazyleg's torso and put him aside for later. Was cleaning my Shadowtrak last night and remembered I had a torso-less Hyena driver. Hmmm. So I put the legs, crotch and arms onto my Shad driver. Bugger me if it didn't look half bad. Quite proud of this guy, very simple but looks the part to me. Here he is,

Red Dingo:







Was toying with the name Red Healer. There is a breed of Dog in Aussie called a Red Healer. Its bread from Dingo's among other things. They have been known to turn very easily. Perfect synopsis really, but only Aussies would get it. So Red Dingo he is.

nice, the head looks good. i love the hyena/hiss tank driver figures, the lower legs + torso on my major are from the 25th anniversary fig & apart from more detailed sculpt he has barely changed!
i need to invest in some vehicles or my army is gonna be walking every where.

Thanks, mate. Until recently mine were walking too, had artillery support tho . I got damned lucky with the shade of red for the head. I was planing on restoring my HISS driver, but I dunno now. Red Shads are more fun

Oops, just spotted a typo.....

Mark, that is top notch he really looks the part. Are you going to paint the skull and cross bones on too?

Thanks Paul. I haven't decided yet. I don't want a little tiny logo on there and there isn't really anywhere else to put it. I do think that BBQ's head makes a good shad tho.

Red Healer sounds like he should be a medic.

great fig.

Good work mate! And that Traks looking well too! Excellent idea for the Bazooka on the back!
