Nah I'm just offering the IG. Mah gakky Muhreens. :E

Sadly they came form someone else entirely and still have the bizarre paint.

That scheme is... er... Unique?

If I'm going to be keeping my infantry simple, I ought to balance it out with some basing materials.

I like the "uff puff".

Also, I guess my Stormtroopers could take red berets, and be like UNIT:

You could always go with texture paints. Citadel's stirland mud is great!

Uff-puff! I nearly got thrown out of a hotel for sitting on my puffer bottle and coating the room in grass last month.

I realise this opens more questions than it answers.

Yep. Yes it does

GG BC... GG
So Selym, any pics of the minis yet?

Not yet, I haven't got anything to show. Got some troopers from TMG on order, to cover the mechanized platoons, and now I'm weighing up basing options before I get anything else ordered.
Should be able to get the guns and berets (the models have helmets, but there's so little detail, I can make up whatever I want on them) of my Stormtroopers done early this weekend.

And I may be able to salvage my dead platoon...

UPDATE:

Section (4.): I "paint" 6mm infantry.

I don't like the black uniforms, it just looks too obviously undercoated. A simple coat of dark green/gray and a watered down wash of something brownish would make them look a lot better with minimal effort.

What are you referring to? I see nuffin.

It's in the original post, section 4.

ah

10mm will probably mix better with the Troublemaker stuff although have you seen Brigade Models Neo Soviet pieces?

Holy balls, they've got Methul Bawkses!

I saw that too. I may have to use those for my METAL BAWXES if I need more than twenty. Now if only they have a predator proxy...........

Blu-Tack and sprue shavings?

Bison might be useful but I reckon it works better as a Russ.

I like that we have a little epic community on dakka. It's cute

Glad to see some more of this on here I've been blogging about it for years and its great to see more interest.

Maybe OT, but is it ok to use RISK soldiers for Epic? Sorry for hijacking...

If it fits the requirements for base sizes and model quantities, then probably. Also they'd need to be in scale... YMMV.

Got a delivery of artillery and APC's recently, but I need to wait for some good weekend weather before I can do anything with them

Whatcha lookin for Matthew?

I just found an old box of RISK, and I thought 'hey, I could play epic with this!' Then I realised no one plays it anymore...

got any pics of the units?

We do!

I have a few little epic projects on the go so its nice to see more of it around

"a few" "little"
Paint up that damn imperator!

It's currently in pieces as I snagged a warmonger kit from eBay, so its being upgraded lol

Section (5.) now ready!
