Title: Escher Gang for Necromunda
Post by: The_Wanderer on 10 January 2018, 03:09:57 PM: Hi guys,

Thought I'd post some pictures of my Escher gang for Necromunda. I think they're the first project I've actually completed properly since I moved house in November 2016! So I'm quite pleased. Very nice models to put together. The one thing I find with GW models is how long they take to paint as there are so many 'extras' on them to paint. I'm used to Bolt Action where it's uniform, skin and little else!

Thanks for looking

Matt

Yeah, there is a fairly noticeable size difference between them but they are usable together I think. The juves certainly look quite small in comparison to the new models but I don't mind that as at least they're distinguishable.

Yeah there's so much to paint! It wasn't something I really noticed years ago when I played 40K, so I'm not sure if I was just used to it back then or alternatively whether GW have added more in the decade or so I've been away from the hobby.

The silly high heels is for the Killer Heels rule: automatically kills a downed enemy model in base contact with style! ;)

Still going to have to go though....I see my Escher girls in Doc Martens instead. That will also reduce the height by 2mm as well which won't hurt.

No, that's a fair point. They'll probably mix better with the old figures with the heels trimmed a bit
