An interesting start. Is that mottling done by painting masking fluid patches on and removing them after a spray? however it's done it's a good effect.

Sweet!

Post by: Elbows on 19 March 2014, 10:02:49 AM
Great work, though I'm sad to see them retain the silly DUST "sewer lid" base.  I think they deserve more!  :)
Title: Re: Dust SSU Red Gard Platoon
Post by: Constable Bertrand on 19 March 2014, 10:54:32 AM
Sewer lid?!  lol haven't heard that before Elbows. But now you mention it... lol lol lol

With the rivets not even static grass would cover it. Could sand/gravel mix then flock fix it all? It's difficult to see how you could cover the edges.

Cheers
Matt

Post by: Elbows on 19 March 2014, 10:32:33 PM
Just something that's always bugged me...personally I'd have ditched the bases and made my own - or used putty or something to cover the rivets.  All personal preference, but weird basing practices always distract me from a gorgeously painted miniature.

Nice highlights in the middle of the panels.  :-*

I think the ssu is a winner being able to sport cool tanks like that.

Is it possible to change the position of grandma, so that she is not falling forward quite so much, or do they come fully glued?
Title: Re: Dust SSU Red Gard Platoon
Post by: Davai Dirtbag on 30 June 2014, 12:45:21 AM
Much like the AT43 stuff they are fully glued, but what can be done depends what you are willing to do. You can dump them in simple green and they will come unglued eventually, or just cut them apart at the legs. The legs & torso are held together by plastic pegs and broke them apart & drilled them out, re-posing them with plastic rod.

Great paint job on all of them!

Hadn't seen those sniper armor walkers before, are those normal kits or converted ones?

Ohhhh lovely stuff! 8) 8) 8) 8)

I always liked the Dust models. Never played the game mind you.

Post by: eilif on 16 December 2014, 01:43:24 AM
Nice work on the chopper. I don't play dust, but I grabbed each of the 3 choppers a couple tanks and 10 tenements during the FFG Sale for use in other games.  I went back and looked at this thread and maybe I should have bought some other units too...
Title: Re: Dust SSU Red Gard Platoon

@Constable Bertrand: I Like the Kid? The Dust-Studios Vehicles are very beautiful.
@pocoloco: All these model are from Dust-Studios. These Kid a mounted and primed.

And here is the first Walker Transport Helicopter Mi-46

Very nice work!  I'm very strongly considering dropping the guns and civilian-izing mine with a cargo container of some sort.

And a bunker/Strongpoint with a big gun is also a good option...
