Badrock is an awesome sculpt, and I’m certainly hoping to get him finished before the month is out.Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-58882113994103508552018-10-25T11:50:12.217-07:002018-10-25T11:50:12.217-07:00Those armoured cars look suspiciously based upon t...Those armoured cars look suspiciously based upon the lovely WW2 Humber chassis? <br /><br />Good stuff mate. <br /><br />Not familiar with the red bloke, but he has a certain Thanos quality about his visage...Daihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04978439841611727387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-87286339446353256422018-10-21T07:46:17.342-07:002018-10-21T07:46:17.342-07:00Good to hear from you, Jez, and no worries about n...Good to hear from you, Jez, and no worries about not previously commenting; that's never something I expect from anyone visiting my humble blog, as I appreciate some stuff people will like and some stuff they won't :-)<br /><br />Hmmm... "Star Wars" 15mm eh? I'd perhaps look at some of "Ground Zero Games" stuff if "The Ion Age" doesn't scratch that particular itch. Although I haven't forgotten about sending you those minis, just been adding to them with some additional spares I'm finding as I scour my collection :-)<br /><br />Badrock has his usual clubbed feet, which will form part of his all-red costume. I hope to have some more WIPs of him posted soon, so you can more clearly see what a great sculpt he is.Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-5620136961366542852018-10-21T06:39:16.991-07:002018-10-21T06:39:16.991-07:00Finally managed to find some 'spare' time ...Finally managed to find some 'spare' time to post some comments, so apologies for not commenting on the previous posts. However, as the subject matter has been the same subject, I can cover off them all with this one.<br /><br />I like the idea of using the Ion Age range as proxy 40K figures. I looked at this range to see if I could do 15mm Star Wars, as I do fancy a bit of SW tabletop action, but refuse to pay Imperial Assault prices. Not 100% sure if they're suitable, but as I have other irons in the fire at present, this project will have to wait.<br /><br />And interesting to see a Bedrock/Badrock figure, even if I wasn't a huge fan of "Youngblood". I assume that its has been sculpted with feet? lol Carrion Crowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12243490491778253955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-57997804083805051862018-10-20T11:35:52.329-07:002018-10-20T11:35:52.329-07:00Thanks Joe.

I so much more enjoy painting vehicles with a very low ground clearance, like the Adder Combat Lifters and their hovercraft skirts.<br /><br />Badrock is an awesome sculpt imho, and really does dominate the 40mm base I've plonked him on. Hopefully I can get him finished soon and team him up with a certain orange-rock "Marvel Comics" super-hero ;-)Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-47105292686817381212018-10-20T03:54:41.926-07:002018-10-20T03:54:41.926-07:00Nice work mate, nice to see that you too paint the...Nice work mate, nice to see that you too paint the axels on your vehicles like I do, even though they are never seen!
