Damn, that is one sweet quad. I take it that it's from the AT-43 line?

The camo on those ultra troopers looks very good, well done.

i agree, good camo

Those are big guns......on a really big tank....with cute little legs . Can't wait to see it all painted up. I might get time this weekend to go spelunking for decals, I only have a first communion, birthday party, and 20 or so people coming over this weekend, so I have time .

I myself have quite a few eisenkern but i opted for a more grey camo look, looking at yours i might paint a squad in jungle like camo

oh, what a massive walker...strong star wars feeling about that one....will fit in nicely with your army!

Yep! the U.N.A. Firecrawler, I had no idea how big it was until it showed up! So pretty much a tad bigger than the Leman Russ....what to make the cannons for 40k?

Yeah I may go with Plasma cannons, or get a PDF from FW on some of the new radiation based weapons.

Theo, you are sounding heavily loaded up.

Grey is a decent color for things. Speaking of Jungle commandos, I has some old metal Bauhaus ones from Warzone: The Mutant Chronicles from the late 1990's before they collapsed. Oddly Bauhaus and Eisenkern go well together.

Yeah, Big and will be a nice paint project to do between soldiers, I have lain the foundation for the patch camo on one 10-man squad already.

Squad looking brilliant, totally loving that camo.

That walker is looking fantastic, want one of those.

Miniature Market has some left, but I fear the savings due to the clearance would be offset by the international V.A.T., but if you look into it, as 15USD it may still be a bargain Tax included! Of course it comes pre-painted, some of the lenses show signs they were slapped in on the things in haste, and I don;t want to try to rip them out and reglue them for fear they will break and leave me with no lenses!

Sorry all for the delays, but I took a break from tiny camo to larger camo as seen here with the Firewalker, and our buddy "Der Hoff"

Now here as the 6x6 is about chimera size, you get a good scale reference of the walkers massive size! it is a big beast, but roughly the size of the Leman Russ on 4 legs. I can't wait to get the camo done, decals, and all the details, it will look so part of the army and good!

Here with the SWM 6x6!

Based on the layout, this machine would need side-mounted internal radar or other sensors as there are no vision ports on the side, and even the front seems to work with sensors/radar/cameras, etc. If it was mounted on wheels or tracks, it would still be a big machine, so still riding high as it is now.

Suh-weet. Things look to be coming together nicely.


And thanks for the size comparison. I wasn't aware that it was THAT big. Nice.


So, out of curiosity, what type of walker is it? I mean, what's it's combat role?

Yeah it is a big beasty and is intimidating

It is a heavy anti armor walker using two G.R.A.S.E.R. beams, which rip apart things in AT-43,,,for 40k? Maybe some form of the new Forgeworld radiation based weapons, or something really nasty.

Still didn't realize how huge that monster is . His Camo works great next to the vehicle too, so win on both fronts.

Holy Smokes!
That's a Monster
Looking great mate!

Always have to figure out how to make it all work when I integrate things into my vast forces!

Thanks Klaus!

Yes, it is quite a hefty model indeed!

Once I finish it, it will look part of the army.

Okay, been slowly working that mass production camo job for the Kruegerian stormies.

I think I like that color pattern best out of all of your troops. I did some searching yesterday for the transfer sheets, but the basement is so messed up from me tearing everything up because of storm damage that I haven't found them...yet. We all know I'd never throw anything away, so they are just hiding.

Nice looking giant

Walkers, big or small, do have a special appeal, don'they?

Good job onthe infantry too, of course, but... Giant Walker!

Nice paint work. Looking good, brother.

This is an update for the camo on the troops

Thank you Vik! I do try to make them look as good as possible with my own two hands.

I really love this camo scheme, just rocks.

Outstanding work, Shas. I really like the pattern on those minis.

Then after the decals and washes, comes the eventual day of the parade.

I still have some other units to finish

Nice cleans lines on that camo, good work.

So, I did 3 tones/shade of blue on the eyes of the troops.

Der Hoff's dire wolves...I like that sounds, and the look of'em

Excellent work on the camo .

That unit looks the business.
