Some fine Retro SF (Khang) Trooper from WSD (http://www.wargamessupplydump.co.uk/prod01.htm)


Very suitable for Ming the Merciless...
Best thing, these guys are also sculpted by Bob Olley and therefore are compatible with the fine Proton Rangers line!
cheers and keep on gaming, Agis - https://www.adpublishing.de

Nice work, I've got to get me some of those!
I go to pieces so fast that people get hit by the shrapnel.

I wanted a "Neo Colonial" look and once I decided the red coat the white helmet just seemed natural... :wink:

That's a really strong, bright red, looks good against the uniform and base dark greys.

I really like the visors too.  Great stuff.

Some Boltgun-ish metal, wash and some highlights in BG metal again.

Agis,

You simply must paint up the two Killer B Games  Jek Starkiller the Galactic Gunfighter and Klug Pluton or heck more of the Dick Garrision line.

I would really like to see how you would paint up one of those Mecha-Man robots.

Honestly, they are standing primed on the desk, but somehow something else always pops in...
