Those apc's look really good, where are they from? Nice to see some more 6mm gruntz. Will you be downscaling to centimeters or are you going to stay with inches for a nicer ground scale?

They're from Dark Realm Miniatures. We'll be playing both Gruntz and their own system, Seeds Of War. Seeds Of War uses centimeters but (like most war gamers, I'd wager) I'm accustomed to inches. I'll see how it works out but it will be at least another 1 to 2 months until we got a fieldable number of units. While other Dark Realm Miniatures are great quality I didn't like the APCs very much at first. They're not very detailed and tbh the casts aren't that good either. But as you can see, with a somewhat decent paint job it's very easy to make 6mm look fine

I really like the walkers. What material did you order the weapon packs in from Shapeways?

The weaponpacks were in Frosted Ultra Detail, the jetpacks were White detail and were much rougher. Although it's more expensive I would definately recomend going with the Frosted Ultra Detail for bits this small.

Finally got around to taking some pictures of the 6mm walkers I finished yesterday so I guess technically they were still done by Friday :-) As you can see by the stone head in the background they are Heavy Gear inspired. They are meant to be a general purpose cadre unit alongside the next picture which is the fire support cadre. Here's a pic of both of them together I'm going to be taking individual pictures of each one so I can get started on their unit cards at which time I'll probably start a separate thread for them.
