Arctic Skunk's GV03 M11 APC
« on: April 12, 2012, 04:02:29 PM »
It took me way too long to get this painted. It's a lovely little vehicle and would have been posted before if I hadn't had a mishap with the spray paint. Anyway, here it is...





And here we have a shot of the GV03 with some old Ral Partha 25mm Moderns. These are some of my favorite modern military miniatures ever made. Unfortunately they're too small to fit in with almost anything on the market now. Mongrel Miniatures come pretty close though.

Pretty nice :-*

Do you know how the Ral Partha minis size up against Denizen?

Very tidy!

It'd look good with GZG's 25mm Stargrunt minis. :D

That looks rather nice :)

Is this one of those shape-way things or is it available through a normal means?

I like this but to be honest the 38+ Euro price tag seems rather high for what it is.

The Denizen minis are around 23-25mm top of base to the eyes, how about the Ral Partha minis?

I'm always looking after a few minis which I could use as armed Colonists for my Aliens-project ;)

Great looking vehicle but a very hefty price tag, not for everyone's wallet  :'(

I'm not sure how they size up next to Denizen. They tend to be similar in size to the WEG Star Wars and GZG Star Grunt minis. In other words they're your basic 80's 25mm figures.

Sounds like they could work with Denizen too.
May I ask you to measure from top of their base to the eyes?

Would be very helpfull ;)

I just measured the Ral Partha figures. Most of the guys are between 24 and 26mm from bottom of boots to the eye line. I tend to think of them as True 25s. If you're interested I think Iron Winds has the masters of these guys. I picked up many of mine from their booth at a convention.

That's great, thanks.
So they will work perfectly with the Denizen minis.

Will see if I find some of them, don't need to much.
If you have some spare one, let me know ;)
