Peppermint_M Posted November 9, 2014 Rudo Villano set out with something a little more robust to take on the rough waters of the river. He wants that extra edge to get to the gold and jewels and grab the choicest loot. With a mount for his machine gun, rivals should think twice to try and cross him. This is another MOC from my Adventurer's refresh that is a new take on an old set. The Jungle subtheme set River Raft was one of the few Jungle sets I was able to pick up as a child. I built this boat as a raft seemed a trifle flimsy all told. This Rudo is a brand new build. The old face print was too faded, so I tried to keep with similar looks and expression. The new hat is still black, but not the old style, it struck me as better suited. I stayed with the rough-cut look, though there was nothing exactly like his original torso I thought this one fitted the bill. Printed legs and a new gun make this guy a little more threatening too.

Peppermint_M Posted November 16, 2014 Cheers. The front is curved from a couple of plate hinges arrayed to cover the width of the boat hull parts. I am not exactly pleased with the plate at the front, it may be a little over stressed but it worked well and looked good so it will stay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
