TheLongestDay? He's the dude who did the Baron Ironblood custom from Grand Moff Tarkin.

Thanks for the compliment Bill.

I saw the custom. It is based on a Cobra Trooper. I'm not aware of a red 25th Cobra Trooper, so this is red paint on a blue/black/fawn body, and red doesn't cover too well (which is why I went for the Crimson Guard and sculpted a collar), and if anyone does win this I'd strongly recommend dremelling a vintage RS head because it really, after all these years, hasn't been bettered by any modern version.

It is fairly easy to make your own.

As for the customiser himself, he's certainly a brilliant customiser, and his zombie stuff is good too. The Ironblood again was brilliant, though I'd again worry about paint wear. He's one of the better customisers on Hisstank, which is high praise because there's some mind blowing stuff on there!
