 Are these the 15mm one's or 28mm?

 Nice piece either way.

 I have the Monolith Designs one hid away.

Very nice paint job.

Are you planning on a big board? What are you including on it?

Cheers

Those aren't the GZG 15mm knockoffs; from the base sizes, they appear to be 28mm.

Very nice stargate!

I was actually busy prepping my GZG 15mm Jaffa this morning. Cutting off their bunny ears.

Thanks guys,
I think ibmay include it on a city table using these so i can play it with my wierd wars and pulp stuff to. I hae the SG1 team as well to paint up.
But in the end i may just do the standard temples and pyrimids using hirst arts moulds.







And this

That's the nice thing about a Stargate, you don't know what's at the other end until you go through! lol

Looking good to me mate.   8)  The white loincloths should stand out nicely against the armour.

If you're interested, I did a small army of Jaffa'a myself a while ago, although mine are all the Phoenix designs ones from Cold War. Here if you think they might provide some inspiration:

Nice! The gold trim really lifts the models.  :)

Really good looking minis. Just a thing : if you plan to use miniature buildings, perhaps you should base your figures on washers instead of thick plastic bases : not speaking of the (cool) fact your figure will be 100% full metal, it also gives a nice visual effect (the figure looks like more a real pedestrian on the floor than a statue), and it also keeps your figs at a reasonable size including the base.

Ahhh didnt even think to do that and ive already based eveything on standard GW 25mm bases.
Pretty much finished just a few minor things to do. Im happy with them.
