Blood for the Baron!

Code Name: Red Nightmare
Personal Name: Tengku, Adnan
Action Force Code Number: None
Primary Military Speciality: Sniper
Secondary Military Speciality: Jungle tracker
Birthplace: Tumpat, Malaysia

Cloned from the DNA of the deceased Red Shadow agent Nightmare, Adnan was created in secret jungle laboratories in Malaysia. Infused with various steroids and artificial upgrades, Red Nightmare has enhanced senses and strength. A lifetime of hunting and tracking in jungle environments make him an apex predator and is known to have killed scores of Action Force troopers.

"Known throughout the Malaysian rainforests as 'The Ghost of the Jungle'."

Very cool, mate.

Spot on! Will you be doing the other BAF-created Shads? We had a list somewhere...

Thanks fellas. If I can get a list that would be great. Running thin on new Shads to customise.

Still need a pic of Bob so I can make an unmasked Red Wolf.

Excellent job!

Character wise, there is also Sultan from Red Jackal and Tako from Operation Sealion (also featuring the unmasked Red "NOT A f*cking NINJA" Laser). There are Arab Shads in Desert Victory, Arctic Shads and Baron at the end of The Black Major and Ski Shads in Operation Claymore, not to mention the disguised Dragoon Shads. Two types of Space Shadows appeared in Codename Moondancer, as did the unmasked Red Wolf. There are several Shad frogman appearances, see Peril at Dragon Rocks, Operation Bloodhound and Sea Fury and I don't think anyone has ever done the topless beach Shadow from Assault on Atoll Z or the maskless renegade Shads from 1985 (see Showdown for the Shadows and School for Snakes) - there's a great guy with torn-off sleeves in Death in South America. There's always the Mamba Men from Jungle Terror and the Gibli from Desert Strike too. Do you want vehicles as well?

Nightmare has to be the pinnacle of BAF characters. Well done. Didn't Mertoh do a Sultan figure?

Thanks guys. I already did Sultan but changed him up a bit. There's a few on the list that I'l have a go at

Been neglecting this thread a bit! I have been making customs, but for various reasons I'm having to wait until I can reveal them (they're commissions/ comp prizes etc)

Anyway, here's a custom I made for my good friend Monte Williams. I went through his entire thread of awesomeness and tried to capture the essence of his customs. I dunno if I succeeded but I'm glad he's happy with the results. He called him Thorax -





Here's Monte's pics -

Yeah, that has Shad genetic abomination written all over him!
