One of my Peter Pig orders included a pack of WWII German motorcyclists (pack no 193). I am converting these into Red Shadow outriders for my Action Force project.
Minor alterations were made to the helmet with Milliput, adding the front visor and a small box on the back.
The motorcyclists are equipped with normal rifles instead of StG-44 assault rifles, but a tiny blob of Milliput added the distinctive curving magazine which makes it look close enough from 6 inches away.
The Red Shadow has been painted GW red gore with a sepia ink wash. The remaining areas are black with a dark grey drybrush. The various markings were carefully hand-painted. It probably needs a skull-and-crossbones emblem on the fuel tank but I didn't feel my brush skills were up to it at the time!
