Ok, Ive been holding out on pics as my crap cam hasnt been working on macro shots. But- I found an article on how to basically hack the auto-focus, and voila! Focused pics!

On to the Good stuff. Tallarns are notoriosu for thier Arabic themed head wear, so heres some random grabs from my shemagh pile. Next round of pics I need ot take from a higher perpspective- as I sculpted all of these looking down at them- and thats where they look the best.

Theres also Omar Marbo, and a WIP of my Straken that need his head gear, pistol, and a bit more work on his robes.

So there is a use for catachans... Nice work, keep it up!

Give the other fellows robes that cover their entire bodies, not just their heads. Moving around in the desert dressed up as rambo isn't the smartest thing to do

Ya, the catachan bodies are getting shoulder pads still. But they're the figs for the 'labor' platoon, hence the e-tools And theyre dirt cheap and I have piles of them lol

If you want to sculpt robes on 70 or 80 guardsmen, feel free Since the catachan bodies are the labor platoon, even in the middle eastern deserts they dont do the hard labor or dirty work in thier robes.

And desert doesnt always equal hot, just a lack of water

you could make the cloaks onto a few guardsmen and then mold the figure so you can make more copies of the cloaked figure. this should be pretty simple to do, thou it would make it so you would only have a few different bodies to choose from since the mold would be the same as the body you sculpted.

My hats off to you on this one as I love the tallarans, and I am a big fan of your marbo. I miss that box set.

Ya, the Last Chancers set had alot of flavor to the character sculpts in it I'd really like ot see a set of updated rules for them. But until then, theyre getting drafted into various roles in my existing IG armies

Looks good, what model did you use for marbo?
Keep up the good work.

The fig for Omar is an old Last Chancers fig, Shiv. The stock fig looks very native american, if you look you can still see the fringe on his pants, since theyre supposed to look like 'buckskins'. So he still needs a little work, but hes mostly done.

Ok.

I noticed with the labor squad, 1 man was on a square base (this is going OT) but is there a rule in 40k saying you can't use square bases? I was just wondering.

I just gathered that was the test mini

Ive always wanted to get a box of last chancers, but for the price theyre being sold for... *cries*

The bases they're on right now are just temporary. Im doing some desert resin bases they'll all be mounted on

kool they are nice i think they are pretty kool
