Mantic Warpath Enforcers...


...arrived on my doorstep today. Only had a quick look but they look great except...
a lot of the leg parts (at least 50% and probabley more) have damage to the waist area were the 'belt' is missing lengths in several places around the waist. I can repair them or hide the gaps with ammo packs etc but it's very, very disappointing.

WIP: Khurasan 28mm Caiman...

...added a few decals, sourced from 1/35 Hasegawa Machinen Krieger kits, mostly to add a splash of colour to the monochrome grey. The Caiman was airbrushed with a thin coat of gloss varnish, decals added using Microset and Microsol setting solution, gloss varnished once more before a coat of dullcote.

WIP: Khurasan 28mm Caiman APC...

...lined and edged and some scratches and chips added. A little more detail painting next while I ponder adding decals.

WIP: Khurasan 28mm Caiman...

...in a monochrome scheme. Base-coat airbrushed followed by a bit of 'Zenithal' highlighting.














6x6x2 cont'd...

...with the detail lined and edged to 'pop' it out. A little more detail painting then it will be filters and weathering.

My painting time of late...

...has been seriously curtailed by a pressing family matter hence the earlier post "half-hour here..." and that's still pretty much the situation. I have though, in those "half-hours" done a little work on a couple of 15mm vehicles. Here's some WIP pics of Antenociti's 15mm Zebu Cruiser and the two variants (so far) of the Kabardin APC painted in a NRF scheme

DreamForge Kickstarter: APC...

...now a reality. We need a few more pledges to release the ten, seated troopers to give the APC a full troop compartment!...

DreamForge Kickstarter - last 4 days...

...and if it tempts you to sign-up and help the APC become a reality (because I'd really like one) I'll run a little comp for the blog followers (as they are to date) and paint an APC for free as a prize.

Half-hour here, half-hour there...

...is all I've had this last week for painting - not enough time to finish some of the lengthier, on-going projects for the two J's so I thought I'd pick up something of mine that's been sitting on the desk for a while. The figure is Hasslefree's (Grymn) Walker pilot. He'll be based with the Walker once it's finished.
