Black Major
Original BM head on a Doc torso with Crimson Shadow Guard arms, groin and legs with Maurauder AK47...
Black Shadow
Cant remember who originally posted there version of this, Muton?? I had a bashed up Shadow head and painted it up black leaving the paint worn eyes and logo as they fit with my usual "battle worn" look...

They're all top work! That body looks superb for the Black Shadow too.
Who's inside the Muton hat?

Enormously impressive work Matt, as always.
I particularly love the Shadow Diver.
Where is the enemy logo from on the diver as I could use a couple of those myself.
Is it from the stickers that are advertised on the forum shop?

Thanks. I print my own figure and vehicle decals onto waterslide paper, I think the original logo came from the word files that the baron posted here.
If you want some I can get some done for you?

i think the diver is my favourite but they are all superb.

Just looking at them all again, and they are top notch. The paint finish is particularly good! Do you use an airbrush?
I may repaint my Black Shadow with the Satin Black, I used the Gloss 21, and he's very shiny, (looks a bit too muck like a rubber fetishist...)

No, I have experimented with an airbrush but I made a mess of anything I tried. I just use a good quality brush and the humbrol enamel evens itself out nicely once on.

Great customs, most especially the Black Major - it just works perfectly well!
