Title: The Toad - Infamy
Post by: Mrdee on April 15, 2014, 07:18:28 PM

Hi all

Been a while since i posted on LAF but I thought I would share some pictures of this model I just finished to stop Cdr Vyper and Col A Bagshot from badgering me any more

Painted this as a promise to James at Infamy that I would paintit and enter it at Salute

This was my inspiration for the piece, colour wise from the picture and the Peaker Blinder series thematically

And won the single sci-fi mini category with him at Salute no less!

if only you heard the announcement though eh? And took Baggy and I seriously when when said you were up for something.

Anyway hope they can get your trophy back off the second place guy!  ;D

So I will need some sort of windbreak then :)

Next up is a Reaver Titan been working on the last few bits of prep work before I start building it this week.  Since I got my hands on it I truely believe it is worth every penny of it's not inconsiderable price tag, lovely casting quality, super detailed, mucho massive, and it goes together like lego....perfect fitting parts a first for me with resin.
