Post by: Elbows on July 25, 2014, 04:36:40 PM: Great paintwork. I'm not a fan of the minis - are they for a specific IP I'm not aware of?

Post by: Elk101 on July 25, 2014, 05:06:54 PM: Mine arrived a week or so ago, they're still in the envelope. Of all the typical Rogue Trooper poses to choose from years of comic books and they've gone with 'meh'. Look at some of the wonderful new sculpts Crooked Dice are doing, look at these, then try not to think 'missed opportunity'. Just my opinion though.

Post by: Conquistador on July 25, 2014, 07:37:38 PM: Okay, 'lazooka'? Is the intent of that name to be a 'Laser Bazooka' like weapon?

Is that supposed to a bit of humor?

Gracias,

Glenn

Presumably it is/was a portmanteau type name, but honestly that was the name in the comics.

Post by: leonmallett on July 25, 2014, 07:45:48 PM: Very nice paint work, and probably better than those sculpts deserve IMHO. :)

Great paintwork. I'm not a fan of the minis - are they for a specific IP I'm not aware of?

They're from the "Rogue Trooper" comic book series, which is in the "2000 AD" family of IPs (i.e. they're from the Judge Dredd universe).

Ah, thanks.

More idle curiosity than actual interest. I find the abbreviated uniform "tropical in the field too long' in some ways yet the rest of the equipment is not typical miniatures "freshly issued" looking in some ways.

Post by: Michka on May 05, 2015, 07:25:26 AM: These look fantastic. Not only is it a great paint job, but I'm actually interested in the sculpts. Is it just me, or do the Norts look a lot better then the G.I.s?

Post by: Westfalia Chris on October 03, 2015, 04:11:34 PM: At first, I was fascinated by the metal tone chosen for the suits - I always pictured the Southers and Northers to be wearing some chemical-repelling synthetics, not metal. Great work, and a rather convincing, though not overwrought, non-metal-metal. :) Very comic-book-style, and very much to my liking.

Then, I decided I'll have to re-evaluate my Souther painting scheme after this (although I'll probably go for a green metallic).

Then I noticed those faces. :o Outstanding.
