The grand army of King Bruno the Questionable (Bretonnia)

[Slave to Darkness]

Small air conditioner are worth considering too…

My bacon tattoo feels like it's cooking in this heat, I'm considering everything. I hear Antarctica is cool this time of year if you don't mind secret government bases, aliens, giants, pyramids and 1940s Germans that are all hidden there. 🤣

 

[Slave to Darkness]

Taking a break from the Brets for a few days, gonna paint some Zombies for a change. Should be back to the Brets in a few days when I stop having nightmares about quartered heraldry.

 

[MichaelStockin]

Fair, and here I am regretting Empire uniforms!!

 

[Slave to Darkness]

The Wargames Atlantic zombies are tiny!! Even with the puddle base they are nearly a head shorter than GW and Oathmark shufflers, looks like a load of child zombies on a day out with a few teachers. 🤣

 

[MichaelStockin]

:O

Good to know.

 

[Slave to Darkness]

NGL glad I just ordered a sprue and not a whole box.

 

[Slave to Darkness]

L-R Oathmark Zombie, Perry Human, WGA Zombie, WGA Foot Sergeant, WGA German, WGA Bulldog.

They ain't terrible, just expected better from WGA. Think they dropped the ball with this kit.

 

[Brother Meredith]

That’s really odd! Perhaps they have shrunk from lack of hydration?

 

[Slave to Darkness]

Im curious to see if their soon to be released apocalypse survivors are scaled the same? I hope not, I had 'Confrontation' shaped plans for those guys.

 

[ManicMan]

problem is.. like with Skeletons, they should be smaller then they are mostly done as. Alot of Citadel zombies are very muscle bound more so then some heroes despite not being that 'fresh'. of course, doing skeletons to scale is... never gonna really look right.

 

[Brother Meredith]

Not really a case of “scale”, more proportions and height with Citadel style sculpting. Anyway something to watch out for…

Could you base them on bit of terrain to give the illusion of height?

 

[Slave to Darkness]

I was thinking about that, but I've only got six, I'm wondering if it's worth it for a few minis.

 

[MichaelStockin]

Chop em up for parts and start again?

 

[MichaelStockin]

I have some alternative armies zombies I can let you have?

 

[MichaelStockin]

Citadel ones with some paint on for scale:

 

[Slave to Darkness]

Ooh they look nice, how much ya want for em?

 

[Slave to Darkness]

Chop em up for parts and start again?

Might as well, could model them crawling out of graves, can't tell the scale when there's half a mini. Or I could just build the regiment from many different ranges and ignore the wonky sizes.

 

[MichaelStockin]

Ooh they look nice, how much ya want for em?

Nowt, remind me of your address again via PM.

 

[Slave to Darkness]

Lemme look for something with my postcode on, lived here 2 years, still don't know it. Or my mobile number I've had over ten years.

A bit of textured cork will do the job! Some folks like to mount their minis on the bases as standard, it is surprisingly effective to make smaller minis stand out.
