It's really not orange. You've seen ROC Flash, he's red. I had actually meant for him to be an Iron Grenadier flamethrower at first, but I thought he made for a better POC/Modern Red Torch. I admit I could have done more work to him, but I really like him the way he is. I think he looks pretty sinister, it sucks that the pics aren't communicating that. Cobrastickers does have a Red Shadows emblem set, I hadn't even noticed it, I think it's new. I'll have to procure a sheet or two, because I definitely want to make some more. Red Jackal!
I'm really kind of honored that my custom has sparked a discussion, that doesn't happen very often around here.
