Ratling Snipers... Plus.

[Inso]

Seeing as photobucket killed my last thread, I thought I'd start a new one that wasn't corrupted by placeholders.

 

It was always my intention to include some Halfling/Ratling snipers in my Squat army but I wanted plastic or resin... and to be honest, the new Ratling snipers looked a bit too like mini Catachans for my taste so it was obvious that I'd have to sculpt my own.

 

As a result... that's what I did and I ended up with these:

When I posted them, a few people suggested that I should get them cast... so I did:

Once I get around to it... and life gives me a bit of a break... they should be available to purchase from here:

So if you are interested... keep an eye on it :)

Damn, those are actually really awesome Inso! I'm tempted to pick up a few. :)

Well, I have 48 sets of five that will be going up for sale soon... so the opportunity will be there if you want to. If not... then not to worry :)

 

I have based up a set and started painting them. Here they are primed:

I have since base-coated and washed them and have started highlighting so it shouldn't be too long before they are painted up, ready to show off :)

I couldn't resist showing off a WIP... just the leaves and bases to go now :) :

You're just 400 away from being able to one round a Warlord Titan. Works out at the same points too.

The latest update on the Halfling Snipers is that I should be getting the ball rolling this coming week. Here's the information:

It's a clunky way of doing things but it's a start :)

In other news, I have been tinkering a bit with the Ogre Sniper but have sort of stalled...

 

... I have decided to give him a slightly long-barrelled las-cannon with a back-pack power source. He will have a similar visor to the Halflings, for targeting. From there, it sort of gets a bit blurry...

 

Do I go for a full on Gilly suit or Gilly jacket with standard fatigues?

Should I give him a full on hood or maybe just give him a rolled down hood and a boonie hat?

Should I just put him in standard fatigues and just have small areas camouflaged by tucking bits of camo into his belt/webbing?

 

That's what has been holding me up on this one. Once I have decided what would go best, I'll get straight back on it...

 

... I know... first world problems

 

I just noticed there isn't a picture of the WIP Ogre... so here is a pic:
