Border World Human Army (WGF WW2)
« on: December 01, 2014, 12:08:49 AM »
The figures are predominantly plastic WW2 figures from Wargames Factory, but with arms, heads, weapons and kit all mixed around. The idea was to represent a well trained but spottily-supplied standing army for a frontier world contested by two other alien powers in the endless war between the Nathi and Silmn in The Worlds In My Head.

Painting was as follows:
-white prime
-brown ink all over
-red ink on the helmets and kit
-black ink on everything but the trousers
-black on weapons and boots
-light drybrush white on the black bits.

Very nice. Are those cheap plastic toy tanks in the background? I think I used the exact same tank with a Robogear weapon and some greebling for my own sci-fi grunts.

How did you do their lift fans? If you have time, can we get some shots of the tanks? I mean, only if it's no trouble.

I second this, the troops are great but i'm curious about the tanks :)
never trust a horse, they make a commitment to shoes that no animal should make.

Neat figures and a cool concept background.  What rules do you use?

I use the FUBAR rules, a version of which I would gladly share if only I could find the link.
