UK Tiger Force Hit & Run

This is a modern custom of the UK Tiger Force Hit & Run. This is linked to the Resurgence project in that it was made by me as a thank you to one of our behind the scene collaborators who offered his time and imagination to make the project that much better. The bag was made from a Walking Dead figure's bag, the strap is cut from an audio cord, the knife was added and is from my fodder box, really not sure where it is from.

Very cool.

I know I keep saying I'm impressed with how much your abilities have grown, and at some point that's got to sound condescending, but it is true.

Your paints are vibrant and solid, and that bag looks great.

That's so factory looking, it's scary. It doesn't even look painted, it looks lik it was molded in those colors. Great work. I wonder if the guy you sent it to has been playing with him non stop.

Thanks guys. This was one of those figures that just fell into place. I usually have at least one problem with each custom. This one just worked.

Loved it when I saw the WIP a while back, still love it. The GI Joe Trooper harness works really well for H&R.

Seriously, this is a heckuva custom, and yes, bucky, I have been playing with it non stop!!!

I was so inspired by Dusty79's great work, this actually became a template for my own Hit & Run custom that I'm working on based on both the concept case and this version. Big props for the fantastic custom, and he will be a centerpiece in my Hit & Run collection.

Expect a feature on GeneralsJoes shortly about this figure and the new custom it has inspired!

Awesome work, and just as good in hand.

love the web gear, i never thought of using the gijoe trooper's web gear that way. pretty sure i'm going to borrow that idea :-D

VERY nice work. TF Hit & Run (I'm fortunate enough to own the original) was certainly one of the more interesting recolorations, especially given Hit & Run's very traditionally-military original color scheme, but this custom really brings the Tiger Force version into the modern line incredibly effectively!
