#57 Morton "Balls" Fieldmann - Born and raised in the irradiated first terraforming colonies of McKemmler IV, Mortie is one of few McKemmler IV-born mutants to actually get out of the system. He have returned to his old home planet with his newly acquired freighter ship and is now recruiting his old mutant hoodlum friends as muscle. Nicknamed "Balls" by his crew for his daring ways.


"It is I, Balls!"

The model is a bendy pre-paint from WOTC's Star Wars Minis range. Nautolan Soldier. I always thought they'd look fun painted as a human mutant. It was a bit soft in the details, as expected - and I have to say I completely ballsed up those pistols. Oh well, he's for gaming and will work just fine on the table.

I like your Balls phreedh ;)

How big are the bendy pre-paints? 25mm? 28mm? 32mm?

Cheers!

It's a puntastic one for sure! =) The baseline is 28mm but they're all over the place. Applies to both the D&D and the SW minis. There's a behemoth of a rebel trooper in one set, for instance. Most of them are slightly weedier than an RT adventurer though. They lack the chunkyness.

For a reference, the washer Balls is mounted on is 25mm wide.
