I still have some finishing touches to do on the squad leader so he will come in a bit.
I decided to revisit an idea I had a long time ago with using mud cover tracks. My first attempt was pretty bad. I have a Chimera from 3 years ago that looks like Swamp thing's ride. I think I was subtle enough on the Leman Russ for it to come out good but still give the impression of a tank driving getting down and dirty. Though I really liked the outcome I don't think I will be doing it for a large number of my tanks. As you can tell I haven't done it yet for the squad mate but I probably will later on.
Hopefully I can throw these guys on the table and unleash some pain with a crap load of dice. As always I would love to hear your opinion and criticisms.
The mud and wear effects on these are great. They look like actual battle tanks!
ReplyDeleteI would suggest that if you are going to do the mud effect, you also carry it to the sides of the tank., It looks a bit disjointed when only the front and tracks have mud on them. They'd be slinging it all over the sides.
Thank you sir! I was really sparse with the mud on the side of the tank. I only had a little on the bottom but I will add a bit more to dirty up things.
