A buddy of mine who doesn't have the skills had me paint these up for him. I didn't mind since it was a small group of figures, plus the fact I told him he had to play this game with me;)
So I painted these up a bit different from the ones I painted for myself, but I think they still do the job.
It's been about four or five months since I painted any BLKOUT models. So it was refreshing to come back and do something a little different from my last few projects. BLKOUT is an Ultra Modern, Science Fiction type of game.
These models have been painted for me, just me. That always feels satisfying to say that. Not for this person, not for that person, just me.
Here's a little extract about them.
"Manticor prides itself on physical strength, and their combat tactics mirror this. Implacable in their attack, layers of ballistic armor let the soldiers of the Manticor Borz Force shrug off hits that would incapacitate any other force. Practical and methodical, Manticor Borz may not be flashy, but they'll put you in the ground nonetheless."
You can see why I chose to paint these lads, they are my kind of boyz!!!
Another installment of troops for my friends Condotieri Army. Figures are 28mm Perry's European Armies line. Have just a couple of more units to go. Chugging along.
So the last few weeks have not been the greatest. Family events caused me to not feel the painting vibe and that's okay. Then May 4th came along and I decided to let the Force take me away from the real world events in my family and drift off into brush land. It's incredible how soothing painting can be.
So I've had these Star Wars Legion models, like forever, and decided to finally paint them up. Not using the rules Star Wars Legion, but instead Spectre. Will see how that works. I've quite a bit more to do but I'll get to them one day as I say I will... hopefully.
I present my first ever Storm Troopers, Some Rebel Pathfinders done in US Army ACU colors, and lastly Rebel Troopers in Jungle camo.
