Well spotted :o

As Braxandur said, now available again from Old Crow: http://www.oldcrowmodels.co.uk/aiinap.htm
Mine (I have several) originally came from Ainsty.

Exactly what I bought mine for. Far better than using a marker or counter, much more atmospheric. Seems to generate more paranoia in players >:D

Thanks, unfortunately, the last orks I painted (the mekano and the grot) are my favorite skin tones, and I don't remember the compositionof the colors :'(

Post by: D@rth J@ymZ on May 28, 2008, 08:19:34 PM: I think it was the 3 laser sight points that appeared on my chest while looking into the jungle photo that made me vote, it was either that or face certain vapourization... :D

Post by: Ironworker on May 29, 2008, 03:45:58 PM: The jungle troopers are very good paintjobs but the weathering and details on the Ork vehicals win this one for me. Too bad they are suffering from GW hate.
Title: Re: Round 8 - Jungle Troopers vs. Desert Raiders
Post by: Argonor on May 30, 2008, 07:29:42 AM: I think both are very well done. I do not know if GW-hate is involved in voting, but if so, it may explain why my LotR orcs lost thier battle lol
