I found a suiting rasta gang theme song. Enjoy!

Ill sumbit pictures too as soon all the models are painted ( i play in Scrazza's campaign.)
Its an Van Saar gang

can't wait so see them all finished!
And I can't wait to play again, too!

Hey Scrazza, I saw someone mentioned using oil to lubricates GS when you are working on it. It works well but you can't add more GS to the part you are working on till you wipe off all the oil (and wait till the GS dries!) and paint doesn't like the oil for sure.
My reccomendation is just to use water as you can shake off any excess in order to add GS to the working area.

Just my 2cents

Oh and definitely get the paint blenders, I got some a couple of months back and my GS work went up a level, makes cloth SO easy.

Hey Scrazza, I think your terrain and minatures look really cool.

I'm also making (very slowly) scratch built terrain for Necro. Like other posters have said, I recommend you use foamcore and platicard---they're both easy to use and make terrain alot more durable.
As for your Rasta gang, I remember once seeing a Rasta themed gang for Necro online. I think it used catachan models with greenstuffed dreadlocks. However, It was years ago and I don't remember where I saw it. It would be worth searching for it, though.

Keep up the good work

Dave

I will buy those greenstuff tools from gw after the exams are done. I'll also try to find some plasticard and foamcore(I think I have some foamcore laying around somewhere)

Hows King Willy coming along?

............................... *sigh*
well I actualy finished converting him. I will post a pic on friday.

update: wip on the delaque juve. And I finished converting the rasta gang leader. I'm not quit happy with the way he turned out, but it'll have to do until I make a new version of em. (c&c& welcome)

the leader doesnt looks that bad
hes still beter than a model who had a collision with a melta blast (read:cooking plate)

Wow, king willy looks really good ( )

Im gonna have to post up some of my minis on my blog for you to shamelessly heckle and call names

thank you.
Maybe you do have to. Look forward to it.

I have also converted a 'rasta' gang for Necromunda, (used Delaques & catachans) after I get home later maybe I can get some pics, after I dig out the models and fire up the cam.

-good to see some Necro-love happenin'... Wait that didn't sound good did it???

Great Job!

thank you Hashsashin. upload your pictures, I wanna see them.

You have done some great minis and lots of personal conversions! You are going to have a fabilous gang!

thank you Xenon. At least I hope I'm having having a fabulous gang. Anyway, tomorow I've got my last exam, so I'm going to play a few times these days. I maybe paint those rastas up, who knows.

oke played th first game in weeks, finaly! tommorow i'll play some more, so expect batreps the day after tomorow(I'm rather tired now)

oke batrep from last night.

Gang Fight

Mak heard from a snitch their was a new gang cald the Muchashos risen to power. The crooks tracked em down and forced them to fight. things went bad in the beggining with Vakos out of action in the 1st turn. the second turn 2 more of my guys went out of action. But then Boris torched 3 infiltrating gangers taking 1 out of action. shooting went good for me and I shot 2 more down 1 fleshwound and 1 out of action. Spark took another 2 out of action with his power maul. He decided to bottle out. He had bad luck on his serious injury, 2 of his dudes went dead outright. I, in contrary, had his share of luck. 1 had an old battle wound, 1 horrible scars and 1 full recovery.

That was the 1st batrep. the 2 games I played today will be posted later. I also bought 3 models. I will post pics of them when they are assembled so stay tuned.

update. Batrep against The Freebootierz. Pics only. Also some unpainted models I bought. (c&c welcome)

Hehe
excellent!
FWIW am in a very positive mood about Necromunda as I actually won yesterday! Though tbh my 10 yo opponent went easy on my Mousemashers as he wasn't playing his own Van Saar house gang

anyway PeePee Toolate, did me proud and now can shoot from the hip as a result

great stuff Scrazza, keep 'em coming mate!
Like the look of the new guys

thanks mate, I didn't glue the flamer dude well, all the parts came loose, so I need to begin all over again on the flamer dude.

oh Chibi, that sounds like a funny gang you got there. Hope the gangs fights well.

Ahh foundry, they're pretty good. But they have a couple of flaws. Naimly, they're small. true 28mm, so they will look like pigmies next to a catachan. Coincidently, foundry do do a pigmy range, and they're the shizz!

Thanks Scrazza
with me in charge and rolling the dice? No chance
First outing my leader got hit and the gang bottled out just as we were about to take the objective!

On the roll he was captured, but he was so rubbish I refused to pay the ransom so he got sold into slavery!

nice linky
Assume the Ballistic Beach Babes don't get an armour save

despite those setbacks, that's still a nice gang you got there. Ever thought about opening your own necromunda thread?

I wasn't planning on starting one but it might be a good idea if people would be interested.


Sorry to have hijacked yours btw was just meant as a quick aside.

no need to apologize. I'll be interested!

anyways, update time. Ive got all day free to paint and/or convert. so here is the 1st finished model. (delaque juve with knife and stubgun)

(c&c welcome)

well then. I'm having a hobby marathon today and I will post my progress of today after the project is finished. here are the 1st 2 Things. 1 Is a finished model while the other is wip. I'mm painting them for my next gang (Goliath). I hope you like the look of the new Goliath gangs.

(c&c welcome)

another model done. scavie. I really enjoyed converting him. I quite like this little fella. oh and I find this lack of posting disturbing

EEK! wouldn't want to meet him in a dark alley.
Come to think of it I wouldn't want to meet him in a well lit alley!

I would suggest priming in grey or using a foudation which covers black really well. I find it makes painting the models a lot easier than having to work over black.

Have a load of really old gretchin from an incomplete Space Crusades game. Lots of good things here for inspiration!

Am really liking these dudes Scrazza! thumbsup
Love the skull painting oon the smoker's jacket!
