Meet Rowdy Roddy

Post by ForbesHutton »

You might have to be in North America to get the reference in the name (Rowdy Roddy Piper was a wrestling star from the 80s and 90s).
He's from the MasterBox kit "Scotland the Brave".

I freelanced the Tartan, there was no way I could copy a proper one, as it was, even with geek goggles, it took a crowbar to un-cross my eyes...

I have some resin heads with Scottish headgear on the way, so he will be getting some friends when I get the heads on some British infantry figures.

Red background then a grid of blue, done with thick lines. A thin yellow line in middle of the blue line, then a black grid to fill in the empty space.

Very cool work, could you do a video on how to make kilts, and blankets, like I've seen in the african Desert, there's more I wanted to ask but my son keeps talking in my ear, and I lost my train of thought. Lol
