SWAT all Painted
Well I have finished my SWAT team. There are 8 miniatures in all, 4 from the USX Range by RAFM (the taller miniatures) and the other 4 from West Wind\’s Road Kill range. In my mind the USX are nicer sculpts but are at least 32mm scale and although it isn\’t a massive issue you…

Full Thrust Finished
Well I have gotten as far as I can with the Islamic Federation Ships without seeing the originals to compare them to. I think I have missed out some highlighting on the wings in skull white, and on the body in scorpion green. – Raggy, signing out

About time for an update

Nope – no minis here!
Another rant, enjoy: I am not by any means dumb, I am a geek, a nerd and have an addiction to learning pretty well anything. I have played on if not owned every console since the Commodore 64… with 2 exceptions. The PS3 is on my to buy list… once it doesn\’t require me to…
