I think that's about it?

Nope. ;) Who makes that armoured car on the back?

And... lovely, lovely, lovely pics. Both the terrain and the minis are terrific. :-*

The Proxie Models buildings look really good.  The pics on his site don't really show the model's potential, IMO.

You're making it harder and harder for me to resist painting my box set!  o_o

That's a 'Dollar Tree' store kid's toy with a turret mounted on top. The turret is from one of the GW massive tanks- the Baneblade or Shadowsword or something like that. Twin heavy stubbers. It's part of my Genestealer Cult motor pool. The paintjob on it isn't that great and it's kind of simple, which is why it's out of focus  lol. The back is weird too, kind of soft/canvas shaped with no clear transition to hard chassis. I still think it's a very cool little vehicle. I'll take another pic of it at some point for you.

There's one on eBay now, but I don't think I'd pay $10 for it ;)

Heh heh, why resist? Plus, you'll soon have a plethora of awesome heads to test out on them :)

Here's a better pic of the armored cars. Dollar Tree toys with an imbedded plasticard hexagon platform, magnetized, then turrets and guns from a plastic IG kit.



I built these a few years ago before I know anything about weathering, so they're pretty basic and have an annoying semi-gloss.

Also, I finished a 15mm Leviathan Crusader and a full size Leviathan Mortis for Wargames Factory's GenCon display. I was asked to wait on posting pics until after the con debut.

However, I did paint a Eureka 15mm 'Sci-fi German' and I have to say they look the part of an Eisenkern in 15mm. He's based on a penny. The legs of the 15mm scale crusader nearby is for scale purposes ;)

Its been said before, but your paint jobs and photography are first rate.

Obviously giant robots are hard to beat, but the mule really does look like a fun model.  Is it or the accessory sprue that it is on available separately?

Inspirational stuff.

I've finally finished a Dreamforge figure I've had on the desk for quite a long time.



Dreamforge Games Eisenkern Stormtrooper body, head by Puppet's War, and pistols by Reaper. I have some more Confederate heads so some more rebels might be joining this guy in the future.

Dang, you're right. I'd forgotten about that Reaper guy, I know I've seen that figure before. I need to get the other Rebs done before Reaper makes some ;)
