These are some old Laserburn Szithks I had under my bed... I dusted them off to try out a new basing technique I found on the Tiny Solitary Soldiers blog... I went for a more "Red Mars" effect which I'm pretty pleased with. So I'm going to base all my new figures like this for continuity.

I originally got these little guys from Tabletop Games in the late 80's - so I must have painted them over twenty years ago! - I still like how they look though... they're available now from 15mm.co.uk... so I'm going to have to get a few more to build up some GRUNTZ units! - Not sure if I'll be able to match the paint job though - I can't remember how I did it!

Can anyone tell me how to get the images to actually appear in the post rather than just links?... I'm new to this forum posting malarky! - Ta.

evileven I hope this works



If so use the insert image and paste the "copy link location" in between

Cheers Matt

Oh by the way nicely done :-)

Thanks comstar Matt!...How did you do that? - I still cant get it to work - not sure what I'm doing wrong - doh!

I used insert image...then pasted www.flickr.com/photos/evilevan666/6046533712/
inbetween the "" bits... should I be pasting something else?

[comstar]

If you right click on above image you get this when you "copy image location" you can do this on the flicker account as well when you view it fully

Hope this helps

No problem

These are some of the old PETER PIG sci-fi 15mm figures that no longer seem to be available. I painted these a long time ago too - but I've just based them up with the "red mars" effect. So thats 4 squads of 6 to add to my GRUNTZ army!

I've got a load of other old 15mm figures in a box, but I'm going to concentrate on painting some new ones next... Critical Mass Kaamados Horde first I think!

Nice red mars basing. I have my Kaamados based and almost ready to paint, I can't decide on a paint scheme yet but might do the little swarming minions in yellow like bio-suits.
