At last, I’ve finished up these infantry figures from Millgeek.

Good looking group, Bill. Do you use a pink paint for the edge highlights, or just blend white into your red? Seems a weird question, but I'm curious. I got some pink paints a while back and I actually think they look better than blending. Can't say what I like about it more, but it looks more natural or something.

It’s actually more orange.  Three layers, Reaper’s Fire Red/Phoenix Red/Fire Orange.

It’s not much compared to your buildings, but I’m trying.

I wanted to get a pile of minis on the table, so I tossed together some rules I’ve been thinking about and played a game.

Nice work Bill.
Pity those Millgeek minis are oop as they are quite nice and the orange /white scheme really came out nice.

No, I didn’t take notes to write up an AAR. I was testing out some rule ideas to see if they would work.

I do have a 5 Parsecs AAR that I will finish writing up soon.
