That's some nice kaamados! I really like the kaamados vehicles, I think I'll be using them for my Mars reds...

Ok, two smaller might be ok then. Good to know. I'll post a "before" picture of my entry tomorrow (unless I manage to finish the other of course. Hehe!).

Here is my effort. The great thing about Gruntz is that I have been able to rejig some old figures, add some new ones and some scratch-builds to make a unique army.

Here is Leto Montelaw's Private Army. He is a RIM defectionist with a shady background who now makes his money through trade in water and other more nefarious pursuits. His army is a combination of bought-out federal units and the Fromen people, indigenous to his home planet of Arrandis.

I hope you like it.

Just spotted those on flickr before I found them here! They look great.

Love that skiff.Where's it from? Or if you built it how?
By the way , I shall be stealing a couple of those P.P.G droids for one of my own commanders way cooler concept than a personal force field.

[shep]

Thanks man.
The skiff is made from a dental floss dispenser (hence the name, Boral = Oral B!) with a medicine spoon for a cockpit. The grav pads are from GZG and the guns are from my bitz box.

Very clever,well done my friend

Finally getting somewhere!.

Infantry squad with attachments done, commander (Platoon Sergeant) done.

Now I have two free days or there abouts (depending on work commitments and antenatal classes) to complete the (huge) vehicle.

This will be a little close....

This guy is really nicely done. Excellent concept and really cool execution.

[pancake]

Cool..

[stroezie]

Well here's my entry


Actually I'm not to happy with my command team, I think I'll probably redo them on a FOW base and add one more figure as I feel they lack a sense of direction at the moment.



One shiny new Panzerwerfer



The Gruntz!!!



My flaming hot unit attachment ;D

With his great bigg brass balls


Ze great proof of shiny newness


And one more of the whole force so far

[comstar]

Love them I really like the Panzerwerfer

[evilevan]

Me too - And the colour code bases to match the dice! - Great Idea!!

[inrepose]

Great work on those minis. I like the paired coloured dice and matching bases.

[fjodin]

stroezie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your idea about different colours for bases and dices is AMAZING! Roll 12 dices of 6 colours and know which soldier hiteted/missed!

[firebroadside]

Eek! The deadline is drawing near! I'm still relatively hopefull that I'll be able to enter something at least (although my planned crusties will have to wait).
