Incl two packs of non-shooter Tchos, one to convert.

Need those for my Strange Aeons games....  :)

Must remember to order some, when I can get some proper work done, again, for all this moving business... Next month I'll be busy fixing the rented house we just left  >:(

Well, promised myself to do a little work each evening as from yesterday - and I got my new 3x3 table sealed with thinned down PVA. Should be dry and ready for first layer of paint this evening - it's also intended for SA, among other things.
Ask at the LAF, and answer shall thy be given!

Cheers :) Yours look way too light on my laptop so I'm guessing they were too dark originally! I still haven't got the knack of photographing minis!

What are you using to check the levels on your photos? Picassa is free and does a good job on colour correcting. There are some articles on TGN about using it

I used GIMP to balance the pics but all I did was the auto level type funtion. I've learnt I can't use my laptop screen for any balancing work, the calibration is way off... old screen! Thankfully I'm getting my proper monitor back this weekend so I may be able to get some better balance to my pictures. I probably have to redo all the pics on the site! Thanks for the links.

Thanks for the orders! All packed and posted this afternoon btw.

Yes I'm planning on sculpting some character figures to go with these packs  :)

I'd really suggest checking out Picassa. The tools in it are limited purely to retouching photos. Its not a bad app and its free.

Mine arrived this morning too, that's fast less than 24 hours from order to delivery.

very well cast figures, lots of character, they are forcing their way to the front of my painting queue.

Am in no hurry to paint them plus I have a few other bits to paint up, but I could not resist a conversion job, I seem to find errors after I prime miniatures, this could be down to the light am working under, first error was the man holding the dynomite, his arm was from a other miniature and was a bit thick so I thinned it down, am in two minds weather to leave the flame thrower man with the tank cradle over his shoulders or put straps there, or just paint straps there, the rifle was from a miniature that was a extra in a order I received and the gun hand was all ready separate from the miniature easy job to solder on, the Deep one hybrids as a group don’t have much in the way of fire power, hence the machine gun.
