Big pic inside.

The tracks are from Ramshackle Games. Everything else is plasticard and GW bitz.

Nice conversions, although I think they look a bit too uniform and clean for Grot tanks.

If you dirty them up, I think they'll look even more incredible!

Nice work but you need some rust on them

Tali'Zorah: I appreciate what you're doing here, Shepard.
Commander Shepard: Well, I care deeply about the quarian people.
Tali'Zorah: It's good to be back on the Normandy.
Commander Shepard: Let me know if it's too quiet for you to sleep, and I'll find you someplace louder.
Tali'Zorah: Hmm.
Garrus Vakarian: Uh, I was there when you two had your thing, remember? Just get a room and work it out.

Freaking awesome, I especially like the unpainted on the right, it reminds me of a stewart tank from the begening of WWII

Grots rule. The desert theme looks good. For greenskins though, perhaps more colors or markings would be better. Just an idea.

Thanks for all the praise, everyone!

I kinda agree with those of you who say the tanks are a bit too clean, but let me tell you... once you finally get a nice even yellow on a large flat surface, you are in no hurry to mess it up again

I intend to work on the other two in the next few days, and then maybe Gorkkan Morkkan, who is also also basecoated now.

So, here's the other two. I declare this squadron "good enough for now." Eventually I'll print some custom Bad Moonz decals and add a few.

I Love the Gorkkan Morkkan. Don't believe in you who believes in you, believe in me who believes in you! Can't wait to see it painted. Will you stick with the Bad Moonz yellow or go with red?
