  • They look great, I particularly like that they have the same expression I pull when I stub my toe.

  • Very nice, I look forward to seeing the both take to the battlefield.

  • Always happy to see Captain Tycho. Metal or Finecast?

  • Nice Job.

    You didn't want to wait around for the one with the ball gag?

  • Those are some sizable battles to be playing 2nd edition with

  • I can see his LEG Over there 😜

  • Looking good like that.

    Honestly I'd just leave them black, trying to paint yellow stripes over black will send you mad.

  • Hazard stripes is another good option and yellow goes super nicely with red.

  • You will probably want to look at a previous post of theirs https://lemmy.world/post/7367015

  • Looks great, the couloir scheme pops!

  • I think that's 40k, haha

  • This is a really cool concept, nicely executed too. The fact that GW went there you go have some kroot that'll do is a real middle finger to tau players.

  • Congrats to Doctor Spork and well done to everyone who entered, there is no competition with out you.

    I look forward to seeing all the entries next year.

  • As Bob Ross would say 'Now I'm just going to paint a happy little Gargant over here'

  • Ooooooh, I had not spotted him. That's a nice model too, it even has a metal backpack!

  • Interesting, how were the castings?

    I know someone who was moaning about the quality of the casting on their made to order metal Yarrick. They were going on about how the model was a mess compared to stuff from the 90s. I assumed it was because they make so few metal minis at GW these days.

  • Good call, just had a look. It seems that the only old models left (warp spiders and fire dragons) are now cast in resin.

  • I immediately went to check when I saw your original comment. I also should have known as I think I had the one on foot back when he was released as part of the original fellowship set.

  • You know what, I didn't think to look through the Middle Earth stuff.

    Is this the last metal miniature that GW sells?

    I've had a look through the site, but may have missed something. Everything else seems to be plastic or resin (shudder). That said, I may have missed something.

    Crazy Original Land Raider conversion s Vol. 5

    Who remembers the original Land Raider Featured in the pages of the Rogue Trader Rule book?

    This beast went onto inspire the iconic kit that GW went onto produce.

    Does anyone else remember when GW sold kits just to make conversions with?

    The pages at the back of the Citadel Journal used to contain 'Dok Butcha's Klinik' where they used to suggest examples of the kinds of conversions you could make from the citadel miniature range.

    I wish I had the money to make an army of these wierdos.

    I think these are the most iconic armies of 2nd Edition

    I've just created an oldhammer community for all the oldies out there

    I hope it's okay to post here, but if you like oldskool miniatures and yearn for the past, feel free to join me over at https://lemmy.world/c/oldhammer I'd love to see what you have to share.

    I'm planning to post up some photos of my old books over the next few days, hope to see you there.
