6mm GZG Mechs
« on: January 12, 2014, 06:26:43 PM »
My first painting for this year, and in a few months. I decided to continue working on my mech force (which has only about 30 mechs and powered armor to go), when I'm done with it, I can start on the opposing tank army.

The big guys are about as big as a 15mm figure, the smaller scouts about half that size. One of the scout walkers had a casting error on one leg, which I brushed black (hopefully making it look like battle damage - though it's not really something you notice anyway at that scale).

All minis are GZG.

Enough talk. Pictures:

It's nice to actually see some pcitures of these. Pictures of GZG's 6mm range seem rather scarce.

Well, if I keep up painting, there should be a few more pictures this year :) But yes, it's kind of weird that even the online shop has so few pics. I bought most of these blind.

I hope you have some 'not-VOTOMs' from GZG to paint up... these are great but I'd love to see some of their 'not-VOTOMs' from you :)

Very nice painting.

Living close to Eureka Miniatures I am fortunate enough that I can browse the range (whiich I did when I converted Sentinels and gun trucks for an Adeptus Mechanicus Epic army).

Heh, I even have some of your 2mm stuff, though I decided that was too small a scale for me... ;)

Fiddly little basterds... I was considering adding more detail, but I think not. Maybe a highlight on the orange eye.

What do you say?

I intend to use Dirtside II, and I've got the rules printed + ready to be bound together. Since I disliked the original cover (too retro for my taste), I made a new one. Here it is.

Had a lot of fun playing Dirtside.
Like those colour schemes, nice combination of the blue and tan.
