From PaulS: Opening Salvo Launched (100 Points)

I wanted to get these up earlier today, but learning how a new phone works and syncs has taken a lot of time... hopefully Miles is still working on his first bomb so I can hold onto first place for at least 5 minutes ;)



Last year I never quite got around to finishing my Commandos, so the first task this year is to finish off those. First up are 20 more infantry for a score of 100. Three of these are Modipius' commandos armed with some sort of mythos busting laser... the rest of the group are bulk standard Warlord plastics. The majority of these are carrying rifles, but hidden in there is a light mortar team as well.

That is some mighty fine and fast painting, Paul. These lads will drive you to the front of the points standings - an impressive start to your Challenge gambit. 

I've always wanted to try these Modiphius commandos for my pulp collection, but have been turned off by the small stature of their human-sized monsters. Nonetheless, these look quite good next to the Warlord models, so maybe I might give them a go. 

Enjoy your lead while you have it. I have a feeling that the Big Brushes are about to make themselves known soon.

  4. That's an impressive number of troops and nicely done, the alternative /sci-fi marines work well with the warlord ones.
