Tunnel Rat

Since America never won the war, Tunnel Rat's family never went across the sea. His father was taken to a concentration camp when he was a child and his family lived in hiding. He grew up not knowing, but believing that his father was still alive. That thought alone keeps him fighting the Nazi oppression. He ran away from home when his grandmother became ill with the goal to steal medicine since his people could not buy it. The rush he got from the disobedience sparked a lifelong fight. Along with his friends, he started small by spray painting or destroying Nazi statues and eventually started hacking computers and robbing jewelry stores. When the second "great wall" was built it shattered his Chinese pride that their wall was no longer the best. It became his sole goal to destroy this new wall. Not just for China, but for a new group of freedom fighters called Cobra who have contacted him asking for help. Who better to ask than someone that has already put some holes in the wall? His dream is that when he gets to the other side of this new wall, his father will be there to greet him.


I mixed paint for the metal plates and the skin tone. By the time I was done painting, it was starting to dry out so it is not smooth in some places. The metal is pewter, silver and a splash of gold, much more realistic than the light gray I originally had. The bandana around his neck is supposed to resemble the Chinese flag.
