New Toys from Armies Army!!

I was fortunate this week to receive some of the new releases from Armies Army, both from Mr Armies Army, and also his distributor Black Hat Miniatures. I thought I would get a few painted and posted asap, so here they are. They are from the support weapons pack and the command pack- a few samples of each.


This guy has what I imagine to be a scanner of some description in his hand.






Ah yes, my favourite- big hairy gun of much destruction!


Is that a grav tank yonder, or do my eyes deceive me, well, if the lazy **** had painted in some eyes...


Yep, another big-ass gun, can't get enough of 'em. Er, I'm starting to wonder if this is saying too much about me and my inadequacies?!


And last, but certainly not least, a sniper/spotter team.

I have a good number of these miniatures to paint, and quite often I find painting the same colour scheme for a lot of minis tends to get a bit stale, but I have to say that it isn't the case with these figures for some reason. Mind you, ask me again when I've done another 30 or so!

So, thanks Keith, these were fun to paint, and I hope that I have not ruined your rep with this painted post!

Thanks for looking in folks, and please feel free to criticise (but remember I do have feelings!).

  2. They're looking nice so they are, especially like the sniper with the base.

    1. Thanks Jacker- I have to say, I probably cropped the pictures too much, and the painting looks a bit untidy this close up, but I never claimed to be good, just enthusiastic!

  6. Quite excellent! You really bring the best out of them, especially the sniper team! I'll be stealing the paint scheme and pics, if that's ok?

  8. Ah, thanks Keith. I should have worked that out with a big cross on the back of his pack! Too dim you see, that's my trouble!

  9. haha

    I didn't like to make it so obvious by pointing out the cross...:)

    Then again, that's the beauty of my figures (I hope!). You can use them for what you like!
