Inso: Thank you, I am glad you feel I did him justice. I was definitely inspired by the art work on the old plastic "Space Dwarfs" box set and the crispness of the sculpt suited that bright and colourful style well. Having said that, his fearsome expression and sinister long coat would also go well with a more modern grimdark approach. Maybe I need to paint another version...
Moriarty: Thanks, I am relieved you like what I have done with your volunteers!
As for the bases, to be honest I thought it would be a shame to squeeze such unique creations inside the hull where they would be barely seen. I also thought the bright summer grass flock would suit their colourful uniforms. I have magnetized the mortar so it can be dismounted from the carrier and set up in a fixed position, allowing the crew to be displayed. It does mean that when the mortar is within the vehicle you will not be able to see any crew but the weapon is quite big so I don't think it will look too empty. I had better finish it off to find out.
