I thought you'd like the flame Walrus =P told ya something cool was gonna come with him. now the question is, when the death korps heavy flamer team from FW comes, do I add flames to that one too? O.o and these guys arrived this morning, anyone know who they are??? =D Hint: theres 12 guys total in this squad Hint: this guy is the leader. and is that a girl with a rocket launcher to his right??? =D my next project after i finish the 5 and a half shock troopers i have left to paint.

Nice! You've acquired the Schaeffer's Last Chancers set... There are some awesome minis in that set--I have a particular fondness for the Rocket Girl mini. I have one stock Rocket Girl, and three converted ones in my collection--two are platoon leaders, and one is a tank commander.
;D

lol a tank commanding rocket girl huh? =P interesting concept, might have to try that when i get more tanks lol though its a bit steep at 50 bucks per set to modify them and stick them all over, what if i mess up >< And another delivery today gave me these guys finally I also got another 2 heavy weapon teams to make the squad, but not sure how i wanna load them out yet so i'll save the pics of them for the time being.

You could always set up the tripods and leave the weapons unglued, that way you can put on what you need. When putting the gunner on the base, use the Lascannon to position him, as thats the longest weapon with regard to where the gunner sits Mortars and rocket launchers are ok too though, but they can be used with spare guardsmen as 'crew', so you could potentially make 3 teams from one box and a few bits (1x tripod weapon, 1x rocket launcher, 1x mortar)

fun with some greenstuff and a lasgunner =3 good thing i have a lot of lasgunners, get to play around some more =D i really like how the skull on the shoulder pad came out. alas, i have a few other guys to finish before this one can get started (painting wise that is). and yeah good call 3ff3ct. as you can see, i combined two into one on my first hw squad =P didn't think i'd ever start a massive collection with the intent to play though, hence its loadout lol...

That is some cool work, although you appear to have atached (sp?) a sheathed bayonet to the lug.

Even if it is a sheathed one there, itll make no difference once it's painted =P I didn't have an extra knife so i took it off the accessory packs for the soldier's belt =P

Good sculpting work, although some mould lines remain on the helmet.

You can usually find individual members of the Last Chancer's set on there. That's where I got at least two of my Rocket Girls from...

Is the missile removable? If not, that will be a real pain to transport...

You win at life. That is all. Actually, no its not. I see a marked improvement in painting... I assume foundation and/or washes have made your life a lot easier...

Thanks Walrus =3 i do what i can. and yeah i've been getting better at using them citadel washes. Got a new army shot for everyone to look at, see what i'm working with now. i think only half my army is painted currently, and theres still a bunch of things on the way (yarrick, 2 sentinels, basilisk, chimera, 2 snipers, bits upon conversion bits and some AA guns). scratch that, like a quarter of my current army is painted >< looks like i have some work cut out for me... and if you look at my screen, the 'nucks got some work cut out for them tomorrow too! =DD cheaa! the plasma gunner, as promised. Nothing too flashy since i out did myself on the last 2 special troopers. need them creativity battery to recharge first. These guys came in the mail today, not shown is the chimera hatch that was delivered with these guys. Note the "barricades" you see are actually part of the heavy flamer team spruce. i think they will look like perfect little barricades when i'm through with them. Death Korps Heavy Flamer Team Funny story, i tried changing up their base by carving a new one to fit in between... here's that end result... four heavy bandages later and its STILL flowing through. inch deep by an inch long, grazed the bone. was WONDERful. Yeah, I fk'd up. I would later take myself to the hospital to get it to stop bleeding. And even with a now-fornicateed-up hand, I WILL finish one of these guys off before I sleep tonight. wish me luck.

ok so i lied, i didnt finish one. i remembered i had work in the morning... but this is what i got so far any my favorite of the night got through half the painting on the first guy and saw the "weapon bits" box beside me. i then pondered for a bit and the pondering lead to this. =3
