Piccies!

This is my basic troop type. As you can see I got some masked helmets from Pig Iron Productions to help my troops have the 'poisonous' world feel to them. I think this basic yet simple change along with the shiny bases I have will make a nice difference to the force.
This is what my command squads will look like. As you can see the helmets are different from the basic troopers, this is firstly to distinguish them from them and also to show the fact that basic guards are just grunts and get basic equipment. These helmets look more sophisticated than the ones above and I personally like the look.

My Commander is painted in the same manner. I have been testing with inks to see what kind of mud effects I can do to their clothing, but so far I am not too pleased, so I can see this changing soon. I am also trying battle damage to the armor areas, but so far I am not too happy with the results. Oh the woe of coming back to painting after such a long time off.

As of 1pm today, I am off until Thursday, so hopefully I will get some serious modelling and painting on. The resin bases are allready sitting in a bowl of soapy water, so they should be ready by the time I get home today to start on them.

Until later... peace out! (Kinda ironic for a blog about wargaming)
