Hi All

Well yet another character to add to my Raiders Collection this time the double crosser Barranca who tries to shoot Indy and then ends up being killed by the Hovito's by being killed with poison darts.

The figure and base were painted and weather using Vallejo and GW paints and weathered using Vallejo paints and pastels.

RECIPE

1: Barranca - The body is a TTL-V3 as are the hands, the head and shorts are from BBI the shorts were actually trousers from a WW2 Aussie digger figure and have been cut to shorts and the hair was added by using GW greenstuff.

I tried to find the same head that I used on my Monkey Man as both characters were played by Vic Tablian but with no luck so the BBI head was the closet likeness I could find to my Monkey Man custom.

The hat, singlet, Revolver, belt and holster are from Sideshow, the hat is from Belloq and has been put into boiling hot water to get the desired look and the hat band is cloth painted and then cut.

The torn singlet is from the Bespin Luke and the belt and holster are from a Indy figure. I couldn't get my hands on the same type of firearm Barranca used in the movie so I used a KOTCS Revolver.

The socks, boots and jacket are from Dragon, the jacket was soaked in diluted bleech and then it was given a wash of khaki and desert yellow to get the desired colour. The socks are from a turtle neck sweater, I just cut the arms off at a deisred length and folded them up.

2: Base - The base is a Indiana Jones stand and has plaster of Paris and sculpty clay added for the ground work, the soil is mulched up dirt/bark from the garden and the plants are from the local pet shop.

Hi All

Guys glad you like the new figure and I will have more coming soon.

swsqueakquels it does look like I do the customs fast but I do about 3-4 at a time so that helps.

Hi All

The Rogster - I have a body picked out just need to find a good head for the Hovito so if you or the other guys have any suggestions it would be very much appreciated.
