This is a place where I shall upload pictures of my latest army that I'm trying out. As a teaser until I finish my first unit, here's my counts as Marbo. This will be updated as I complete units.

Just remembered that I also had my finished Vendetta. Note: Pay no heed to the cockpit glass. That is clearly a tactical fogging to prevent the enemy from seeing (and shooting) the pilots. It is not some incident caused by the Lacquer used to protect the models from damage, hehehheheheheheheh...

Loving Marbo - nice use of parts in the model.

Are you going to finish off the base - it would really add to an already cool creation.

Any more to share?

While I don't have any units finished, I can show you some of the other miniatures I have done for this army. I've got a counts as Straken, a counts as Bastonne, a Meltagunner, and the rest is all WIP. I can submit those, if you want to see them.

Correction, I submit. Have some pictures of units (unpainted for the most part).

Wow, it's been forever since I've posted in here. Here's an update since I've started working on this again.

This is how the 812th Mechanized looks so far. I plan on adding 2 more chimeras and a Rough Riders squad.

Here's some progress to prove that this is not another dead P&M blog (just yet, anyways...)

Have some fully painted chimera. All that needs to be done is decals and Matte varnish, and I'll have 1 chimera completed! 6 MORE TO GO!!!

More pictures to come as soon as technology starts working for me.

Technology started working for me. Have 4 more pictures.

You can never have too many Chimeras.

This is my army (vehicles only) and my Rough Riders. To expand later on, I'll probably add some Leman Russes or something. Add 77 infantry and Marbo, and that's what it looks like (previous image helps. The Core of my army is fully assembled now.

I tried to get good angles. It's one of those things that doesn't look as good in pictures as it does when you're actually holding it.

[Thumb - IMG_0361.JPG]
I used some Gauze Bandages for the cloak, and painted it so it wouldn't be too loose.

Mein Gott! It's been a long time since I've updated here!

Have a small update I did purely on whimsy. My Kasrkin Sergeant was lookin' a little too "standard", so I sculpted some hair. It's my second time sculpting hair, and I think it came out pretty darn good. Turns out I'm better at sculpting hair than I am at drawing it!


Automatically Appended Next Post:
I think it'll look much better when painted.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
Finished basing the Kasrkin squad. I might also make some Apoc rules for Kolso to make him special. I'll post pics in the morning. Right now, I'm tired from cleaning cosmoline from my revolver.
[Thumb - photo (1).JPG]
Anyways, I present to you the (WIP) Lieutenant Kolso!

Anyway, shaping this force up nicely, good work with the green stuff


Ugh! Cosmoline, boiled in water helps get it to melt off, (had to do that to fresh out of the box M-16's back in 1983) hated the work.
