I'm hoping tbh this is a badly oily batch, but if the problem persists I may give that suggestion a try...<br /><br />Group shot will be coming, as will more Boromite units, once the last two are finished.

Much appreciated :-) I’m hoping the paint will stick better on some of the other minis, though like my Lister mini, Kryten also suddenly lost a leaf of paint through simple handling? very odd. I’m hoping to get the Boromite finished over the next few days, and then I’ll have just one more left before the 500pt scouting force is finished :-)Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-7888415461412932822018-07-10T04:49:38.833-07:002018-07-10T04:49:38.833-07:00Kryten - great figure and instantly recognisable (...Kryten - great figure and instantly recognisable (as the second version) and well done picking out all the little details on him, looking forward to the rest of the crew if you ever get the paint to stick!<br />Always pleasing for me (now that I'm a convert) to see another Boromite on the atble and the wip photos of these guys really do show how much work you put into them.

I was rather lucky to pick up these OOP minis, but did have to wait a good 18 months for them to turn up as memory serves :-) I’m really keen to get the initial quartet painted for exactly that reason - getting them on the tabletop in some sort of campaign. I’ve a few mash-ups in mind already ;-)Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-7466141715386242742018-07-10T04:26:14.287-07:002018-07-10T04:26:14.287-07:00Smegging great!

Kryten has quite a distinctive black-silver armour and I was initially a bit thrown as to how to replicate the colour.

As to the wips, all I can say is, "smoke me a kipper and I'll be back for breakfast! (Or when the model is finished)" Very nice sculpts. Glad to see the Boromite as well.
