Wave 1 German paratrooper custom

Post by Muton »

Here's my attempt at a German paratrooper from the mini action man style soldiers of the world range!
I know the paint needs a little touching up here and there, but I couldn't wait to show him off!

Recipe:
Head- German Stormtrooper, helmet cut down with Dremel, and straps and hair added.
Torso- German Stormtrooper.
Arms- Muton.
Legs- Arctic Trooper.

Thanks everyone. i'd been thinking of doing this for a while since I saw the 'Boffin' figure. The legs are perfect for a luftwaffe 'bonesack' paratrooper jacket.
I've got a Marauders MG34 machine gun on its way to finish him off.

the arms needed to be 'baggy' to match the blousing of the bottom of the smock, and the :muton: :levi: :deepsea: figures all have the required look!

Ok he's finished now, the MG34 machine gun, and Luger pistol are from Marauders, and top quality!
