I've not painted them yet, but I've got some of the Oathmark goblins assembled with some sci-fi weapons, they work pretty good that way.  I'd never thought of using them for a Barsoom style se...

He made a helmet for me :)

Hello all, If you do not know me, my name is Max, however my forum handle is lord Marcus. You may have seen my name on those shiny new Aztec and conquistador boxes. Because the Aztec kit is my dr...

@Olympian Gamers it's not hair, those are a form of crest that were attached to the helmets. Which by the way, historically, were carved from wood.

@JTam Not mermaids, but have you seen the movie, Cold skin? The Fish people look alot like the GW Nemarti. Cold Skin Wikepedia page The movie takes place ... actually I am not sure. t could be e...

Got to work on stuff for a couple hours today. Decided to start with the halberds. I cleaned up the remaining warlord games landsknecht bodies... I had 32 total left from making my halfling muskete...

@JTam Yeah, I had these guys. Also had some halberd that came with the Battle Masters board game from Milton Bradley.

Plot Twist!  Release Mermaids as part of the upcoming Warring States range.

All the best to you. From what you say you have spent the last Days beeing there for people who need it. Caring about little things you put a lot of work and care into is very much human. We all k...

Nice!   Maybe with different weapons they would fit right in on Barsoom.

The food is way better with the grognards (and "An army walks on its stomach.") But the bulldogs have some high-tech tea-maker.

@H M  Very cool. You make armor?  He made armor for you?

Respect for opening up like that mate. We all have our troubles, and a burden shared is a burden lessened. You are helping others and that is important. Stay safe!

Looking good mate!

Perhaps include alternate heads. Traditional beauties: And horrors: (Scary) (Scarier) (Scariest) Probably go with scariest for the kit.  No half measures.    

Surprisingly creepy:  

That's all work by a great guy named Demetrios, who I have had the pleasure of working with in in the past on an armor comission!

Great stuff.   The leader conversion is effective.   The halberdier conversion works too.  Good use of the torsos.  Halberdier unit of 30....hmmmh... remember these ...

The whole site is pretty amazing: https://www.hellenicarmors.gr/en/armors/mycenaean/

@BS Kitbasher   The original question was pretty vague.  Probably intentionally.  A question like that is going to have a lot of interpretations and generate all kinds of answers.&n...

@Caratacus  You are right mate, I stand corrected.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_conquest_of_Anglesey Seems my memory of Segontium being the furthest reach of the Empire was off....

@BS Kitbasher good point actually. 

She as one solo head light , shown on the box and in photos, but not included so I`ll scource that, put it between the spare wheels, and fit the second. She really is a great kit, I want her in the...

So many different comments on the smoke chargers wheter the were fitted or not so I`m studing photos and going with the max.

I`ve just put the first oil and grime wash on the old girl.

First real modeling I`ve done in two years, and god, never realised how much I missed it. 

I don't understand everyone asking for metal historical ranges to be made in multipart plastic *as a partnership with another manufacturer*.  It's not like metal historical company owns the IP...

@JTam The Current one is Cycle of Earth, The One I looked at was Gates of Jigoku. The Link for gates is above. I didnt back as 35mm is a bit too large to fit in with most of my collection. 35mm is...

First, a small preamble. I see this forum as a safe place, where some of you may understand the following text. I do not write this for piety, to make myself look good, or whatever. I am no hero, n...

@William Redford  Those would be some big zombies than. This Kickstarter says 18 days to go?

@JTam  "Okko Chronicles miniatures are on average 35mm in height. This scale is based on the height to the eyes of an adult human character. Some miniatures will be much larger, while others w...

I can't find the scale of the included minis... But if they are 28mm here's a nice way to add more fantastical elements.  You know, like Zombie Samurai.  

Another vote for The Assault Group. Their metal Ottomans look great and are from the best (IMHO) period, but I would much prefer a multi-part plastic kit. 

Got my treasure too.

Khurasan Miniatures has some 28mm stuff that would be nice in plastic.  I's also like to see some of their 15mm stuff upscaled.

Onslaught Miniatures 6mm Infantry and vehicle line in plastic would be awesome.    

@Spectresghost   Good call on the Crocodile (War Gods).  It's a nice miniature line.  Like their Amazons.

@Yronimos Whateley  6mm is small, no doubt.  But you might be pleasantly surprised with the amount of detail they can have.  

54mm is also seen used in some skirmish games.  Probably most famously, Inquisitor.  I also remember a Wargames Illustrated article where someone was doing big Hoplite battles in 54mm - ...

GZG or Crocodile (War Gods) would be my first choices.

The lizards have competition!

i'll be honest no idea. i assume they will be different in equipment to some degree. they could also just play close to the same. i'd guess grognards have the heavy equipment set, and maybe bulldog...

What do you suppose the difference between the Bulldogs and Grognards will be on the actual battlefield?  It seems to me that Einjar will likely be tough guys that get in close and just keep ...

Looks like:                                 PKM Maybe Dragunov.              &nb...

@Yronimos Whateley yeah the first bit is just kinda business. as for how it applies to the hex scenery it failed for a different reason. they over-expanded and did a lot of licensed products and it...

I think the most common hurdles are economic matters:  do enough people buy the product, to make up the expense of producing it?  Sometimes, that comes down to bad implementation, or bad...

Thanks for the corrections!  I should note that I do almost no gaming outside of 28mm, most of the rest was in games where no scale in particular was mentioned ("Pirates of the Spanish Main", ...
