Blood for the Baron!

Got round to picking up some German soldiers from the Indiana Jones toys.
Then got set to taking them apart
A work in progress.............

One German soldier, nice chap


Now issued his helmet



Head comes off, won`t fit helmet, darn it!!


Time to break out the cheap version of the Dremel, £25 odd from Argos, lots of tools.
Cone shape to make the hole and rounded tip to hollow out for the round plug.




And hey presto!! One helmet that fits snug as a bug


More to follow.................................

Holy fichtin moley, that is the most - completely anal but brilliant at the same time - contre-tetes I've seen in a long time.

Thanks Quickfire
Thought it would be nice to see from start to finish, took me a while to find how to
take the feckin legs off!!

Painting now nearly done and waiting to dry

Legs......


Shocked at losing most body parts, he threatens whats left of his life with a grenade



Not long before he pulls himself together, boom boom!!

This is gonna rock. maybe paint the neck red too?

I did consider painting the neck, see how he looks with the flesh first and go from there.
I`ve left the option to swap the heads so he can have the off duty look too.
The original has a closed neck design, ruling out the white collars on this one , but I have 2 so there
could be two versions if this goes O.K.

Wicked. I do like the severed torso impaled on bloody spikes effect.

I knew these would work as great red shadow customs cant wait to see this done

too bad hasbro wont mass release them or at least the Collectors club!

Tried him with the flesh neck and didn`t like it


Back to Black as ACDC said

Something lurking in the shadows could only be the new guy standing on the freshly napalmed treeline











Camera does make him out to be a little orange!!
Not the case really, just bad lighting on my part
