Title: WarZone Trenchers... I think
Post by: Fitz on December 08, 2010, 09:13:21 PM
I got these two guys years ago, and just got around to painting them. I'm told that they come from the (defunct?) WarZone range, and I've never seen any others around locally. I'm not a big fan of GW-style sculpting in general (or their price!) but I like the World-War-1-in-Space look of these ones.

Does anyone carry these anymore? I would love to add that rifle guy to my Wasteland guys.

I’ve never been a fan of these figures but the paintjob you did on them is excellent 8)

EDIT; BTW welcome to LAF too 8)

And Warzone was a great game actually! Its a pity that it self-inflated.

Nice work, the high bases look a bit weird to me though. 8)

I don't know the full story, but Target, Swedish RPG Company that relased Kult if anyone remembers that, did shot themselves in the arse several times during the relaunch. And to be honest, ate all the pie before it was payed. So in an attempt to get some cash, they re-did it, and according to some mates, made it worse (I can't really remember a game that I played 13+ Years ago) and over-priced.
And then went to hell.
However, before they did that, they actually managed to split into a licensing company called Paradox Entertainment, and managed to get hold of the full Conan rights for a bargain.
