After a successful event at Horisont II (very successful!) I hasten to add more troops to the Røvede Space Colony setting.
Jaeger has been discussing doing some horrendous CANIDS! and I have had to come up with an answer to this new thread. My answer will be:

Tiger Force
Inspired by the G.I.Joe action figures of the same name. Again I'm using rubbish figures that wouldn't get any love otherwise. The different guys aren't painted the same way as I used this first stand to find out how to paint the skin. (and I fogot stripes on the bandanas).
Alpha Platoon done. Each platoon will have different tiger markings and colours.
(I'll add a forward observer and a leader to this platoon later)
I'm looking forward to painting some tiger striped vehicles already. :D
Next on the list though is Kilo Lima Battery - 3 morters with crew - and some truly alien jungle terrain!
Inspiration:

-
A tough looking platoon for sure. :)
Exelent paint job and well taken photo as usual.

Nice use of some really terrible models :)

I have some almost kitsch desire for horrible plastics... lol
At least that's how I explain my purchases at WGF through time.
I considered getting their not-death corps infantry and adding hog heads also. But economy won and I'm doing tiger force first.

More speed painting! lol

Uh. Those mortars are gonna give my poor canids a lot of headaches I'm sure, but what is that guy doing with his garage door opener in the middle of the jungle? :D
Paint and photo... what can I say.. wouldn't expect anything less (even though it's speedpainting). ;)

I'll add a couple of Tiger Paws I think. Just need to order some quad bikes from Scotia Grendel.
One to an infantry base will probably look just right.

Started doing some alien jungle terrain for my planet.

Looks great Thorbjørn, I wish my speed painting was as good as that, it's either speed and really crap and slow and reasonable.
Plus I particularly like the alien plantlife, very 90's GW (in the good way of course, not the 'red-way!).

The UK only got limited releases of figures compared to the US, but to be honest the majority were just repaints.
Nice work on horrid mini's. :)

2nd Cyberfire Table almost done now. lol
I have to get a new cloth though... can't use it on two tables at the same time.
-
Uhhh!! That looks really nice :)
I demand battlereports from that table!
-
Exelent stuff. Looking forward to putting it to the test.

Very cool looking project.
-
Very nice paintjob and the colour scheme makes them look more like toys than they already did. It suits them in a childish way. Nice work on the alien jungle too!
-
Very nice, the cow beetles will be punished.

The sworn enemies of Tiger Force.
