I think he was just ripping on your spelling of "couple". Had your back. "It's the British spelling" tends to be a good way to bluff your way out of bad spelling. Saw your location was South Australia and modified the excuse. No idea what a bogan is.

No, no. What he's described is a "Redneck". The mullet is a dead give away when identifying that particular sub-species.

DE models usually look a bit lame, but that Trueborn is fantastically well done in an appropriately sinister way. Nice one.

The branch wraith is also cool.

For the bronze areas of my trueborn:

First mix equal parts tin bitz and dwarf bronze. Darken that up a lot with scorched brown. This is the basecoat.
Then, layer on a mix of equal parts tin bitz and dwarf bronze.
Next I used brown in on the recesses.
To highlight, add mithril silver to your tin bitz and dwarf bronze mix. Done!

Thanks for the comments guys. I have a DE blog on Dakka - check it out. The link is in my sig.

Haha here we go! Can't wait to see how people are going to convert those Finecast models that were unchangable because they were metal. It's gonna make for some surprising results I think!

So was it a metal one or a Finecast cause it looked like both?

Thraka is a Citadel Finecast model that has been primed in Army Painter Colour Primer (Plate Mail Metal). Awesome stuff to use on any model that has a lot of areas that will be painted metal / silver colour.
