Title: Retro SF Trooper...
Post by: Agis on July 22, 2007, 06:38:24 PM
Some fine Retro SF (Khang) Trooper from WSD (http://www.wargamessupplydump.co.uk/prod01.htm)

Very suitable for Ming the Merciless...
Best thing, these guys are also sculpted by Bob Olley and therefore are compatible with the fine Proton Rangers line!

Nice colour choices. I really like the white helmets.

I wanted a "Neo Colonial" look and once I decided the red coat the white helmet just seemed natural... :wink:

That's a really strong, bright red, looks good against the uniform and base dark greys.

I really like the visors too.  Great stuff.

British Colonial under the command of Ming the Merciless!

A socialist rethinking of the Pulp sci-fi  :lol:

Agis,

You simply must paint up the two Killer B Games  Jek Starkiller the Galactic Gunfighter and Klug Pluton or heck more of the Dick Garrision line.

I would really like to see how you would paint up one of those Mecha-Man robots.

Honestly, they are standing primed on the desk, but somehow something else always pops in...
Soon... :wink:

Hmmm Double post.  Thats odd.  

Well primed is better than bare metal.  Hopefully you can get them painted real soon.   I really look forward to seeing how you paint them up.
