Updates! They're not quite the updates I wanted them to be, as I appear to have lost my GS. As in, it's somewhere on my desk and I don't know where. Unfortunately, things being underneath other things is my personal kryptonite.
Anyways, here's the new cavalry, bringing the total up to five. Due to aforementioned lack of greenstuff, I haven't done their reins, carbine cases or bedrolls, but they're worth posting pics of anyways.
And a group shot:
And because I keep yapping about them, here's the newest War Orphans.
And finally, an in-progress Yukoni Drop Trooper. This guy was made on a whim, because I had parts for only a single dude left. I have no idea how I'll use them, if I make a full squad, but I used the incredibly cliched pose (I've seen it a lot, especially with Blood Pact, strangely) because I want to try my hand at sculpting a, uh, a hand. He carries an autogun instead of the usual Rosch lasrifle because I figure that you can't really properly flash-suppress a laser gun and a bunch on lunatics who insist on jumping out of perfectly good airplanes would need a gun that isn't guaranteed to give them away.
The lack of GS pretty much stymies everything I was going to do tonight, so maybe I'll build some terrain. I need a couple more buildings, and I think I've figured out how to make craters.

Cool - as ever.
ReplyDeleteThere was a pretty good craters tutorial in the 4th Ed rulebook...

Yeah, that's vaguely what I'm basing mine on, though it's a little more rough & ready, like the buildings. I made three of them, but I haven't time to get pics before work. Tonight!
ReplyDeleteBy the way,
ReplyDeleteWith regard to your "horses...and loonies who jump from planes," are you aware that there is, in the UK, a 7th Parachute Regiment, Royal Horse Artillery? - Surely they truly are loonies who jump from planes...on horses!

I...what? Madness. MADNESS!
ReplyDeleteActually, I didn't even know there was more than one Parachute Regiment...
I can't remember the details, and the British regimental system is pretty convoluted (not to mention archaic!), but they do exist! They're a para-badged airbourne artillery, firing 105mm light guns.
ReplyDeleteConfusingly, I think I'm right in saying that the arty are technically all one big regiment: the Royal Regiment of Artillery, (usually 'Royal Artillery') but it is sub-divided into many smaller units which are still called regiments.
And - for the record, and to add to the insanity - King's Troop, Royal Horse Artillery, still ride horses!
