EBOB paintballers as flamers
« on: April 03, 2011, 11:52:21 PM »
Was just browsing Ebob's website and it ocurred to me that with the hopper cut off the top of the gun (and maybe a Hasslefree headswap to lose the mask) his paintballers could become troopers with futuristic flamers.  Has anyone tried this?

I had these at one point - the figures are quite thin and small compared to most heroic 28mm or the rest of my 25mm figures.

The game itself was fun for the odd one or two game nights.

I did something else, just using the guns.
I used the hoppers and gasbottles to convert some "Nachtjäger" and british Paras into "Szenario Games" players.
Came out nice:



No idea about the whole minis, because I just have the guns, but on them the hopper is seperated from the gun.



I have a few guns left, if you need some ;)

That's a great idea! I hadn't really given them much consideration before, but they might make a great outlaw gang/Mercenary unit for 5150 with only minimal conversion.

I like minimal  lol
