nice haul there buddy

Wasn't AT-43 designed by the same guy who does dust? That's why they look so similar.

They were kind of competing, and the release of the Dust stuff made Rackham change th game from Alternate Timeline 1943 to After Trauma 43 and out in space setting where the descendants of space colonists became the UNA, Red Blok and ONI, the Therians were what became of the folks who remained on and developed on old Earth and came seeking out to make the big change to all life in space. Dust stayed firmly in Weird War-II and beyond.

Yeah, Dust is historical, with the addition of the alien element that gives unlimited energy to diesel tech.

Either way, I like how well the other models fit into my scheme and planned forces. Man I may have a parade that stretched out in units and vehicles will take the length of the house to do it justice, I may just have to borrow a game table and terrain at he store in Princeton and just snap units after posing them on it, put them back and pose the next units/vehicles.

I'd bet you could only find enough tables to display ALL of your forces in a Church Basement

Yes, Break in and set up your parade of strength
God forgives, Men don't always follow by example.

LOL! you guys crack me up!

Meanwhile, and update, I painted the engine sections for the IS tanks, and here is what I copied color wise from the tank factory over there in Kharkiv, home of the famous T-34!

Shadow Gray has been replaced by "The Fang" and I found it has a bit more of a purple tinge to it. Sad I may have to mix something of my own up
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
for now, I will stay with this, and paint the new stuff to Khadrovian standards of camouflage and mark them accordingly for the roles that they play

Crews

Special volunteer squad from an outlying colony

Camo start on strider

those heli´s look nice, and finally some work on a tank...after all this is still The Oddball Tank Thread!!!

There will be more on the IS tanks to come as I paint them.

So, dust and AT-43 minis to paint

Great coat heavy weapons to build and paint for 3 different platoons, Tyarvetsyans, Arkeletsyans and Murmanskyans

Amexadians to paint, (Defiance Games Marines)

Kreuegerians to build and paint along with the lighting and work on the Crusader Leviathan

Earth force kitsto build and paint for the Yamato stuff, and the starfish of doom to paint.

You sure have quite a schedule ahead of you...

Awww, those choppers are cute

Yep! and now I must add Nuka and sarsparilla machines to the list as I got the drop of them from Rivetzone today!!

THat's music to me ears!

So, an update is in order

More terrors of the battlesfield

The big boys!

Soda machine compressors/guts and a crate!
[/img]

Soda machine bodies

And yes, I got a new keyboard and mouse, both are wireless, so I can if needed, take the keyboard off the platform for more painting/crafting space now

nice haul shas the new recruits are shaping up nicely too

Did you just brush around the stars? or did you mask them somehow?

NICE machines!

Keep paint off this keyboard eh? it's not a pallete

alabamaheretic wrote:nice haul shas the new recruits are shaping up nicely too

Thank you! Oh to have them on the battle tables soon enough!

dsteingass wrote:Did you just brush around the stars? or did you mask them somehow?

As carefully as I could, I brushed around the stars.

Yes, some cleanup is needed, but hey, same deal with Forgeworld and they charge a LOT and do nothing to clean their models before sales, I miss Old Crow for making affordable resin models and eh actually took pride and cleaned the parts before shipping them.

That is the plan, clean keyboard , avoid glu and paint on this one.

well the group shot is up plus a surprise on my end of the world i think you might be pleased by this...

paint on keyboard means your busy at hobby time the glue i can under stand i keep that stuff far far away from my keyboard

Yep, I do so want to \keep the new board clean.

Yeah Vik, and with the completion of the Amexadians and Kruegerian Stosstruppers, the Konfederacy will be ready for a major campaign!

First Earth Fighter kit built in 1/72 scale, engine vents are mobile, and the kit is sleek, decals will be a pain as they need to have the shark mouth cut to fit the vanes up front as you will see.

So, some features of the Type 99 fighter harks back to the original series Cosmo Tiger, but is now the Cosmo Falcon, aka Hayabusa

Very nice.

Must paint the frame of the cockpit glass, the underside of the wings so they are grey as the belly.

Neat looking jet, I old have expected larger wings though .

It mainly is for fighting at high speeds in the upper atmosphere, to space and is carried aboard the Yamato 36 like it to be exact.

cool looking models man

The pics edited into the OP don't show up for me for some reason, even if I copy and paste the image url into my browser window.

alabamaheretic wrote:cool looking models man

Thanks Bama, the Kato fighter is more standard grey and white.
