Wargamhysteria

I recently found some tau pathfinders for clearance price and decided to give it a go I based them on the inner half of the  hero clix bases Assembled off camera. Glued on bases and base coated. Then the painting began... Pretty much complete, just the base paint brown and flock applied using woodglue/pva/water till it's slightly thin The <mostly>finished product Thanks for stopping by!!

Here are some completed mechwarrior mechs and tanks that are rebased and flocked to.....look good. I'll make another post to show pics of the process. Cheap and fun armies  Planning to use these with 15mm sci fi soldiers for gruntz and also homebrews as always. 

A few pictures from the start of the process setting up the stands and finding the best configuration A little more of the same... Base coat spray paint on the figures and bases A little more positioning and fitting the shields  Beginning the painting process using one coat of contrast paints <snake bite leather> for most of it A darker shade for weapons and helmets Nice heavy cav bears with pretty good detail Using blue contrast paint for the undead headdress and kilt Eventually the cavalry using the same contrast and painting skin with barbarian flesh Same color scheme all around as it fits the initial depth I'm looking for. The miniatures are an odd scale and from a distance it looks fine for what I'm doing.  And here, my painted forces up to this point Now I'm starting a new batch  Shields fitted back on after painting And that's most of the newest army here at war...
