Great minis as usual Bulldog. Man, how you pump out so much good looking stuff in such a short time…

I sold my soul many years ago Doom and in return got indestructable brushes and magical paint pots that refill overnight…well worth it I would say at todays prices!

Anyhoo, whipped through the remainder of the SSU stuff, thats the hero, chopper and walkers so that the itch scratched for now, just waiting for FFG dragging their heels and releasing stuff way slower than I can paint them…bah!

May buy another walker box just so I can paint one the big guys up in that nice soviet red scheme shown on the box, they are fun to paint too

Pics over at the usual spot www.tanksandtrolls.co.uk/Dust.htm also put a few pics up of all the SSU forces to date gathered

WOW!!

Nice to see your big effort is still paying off.

How do the SSU play?

I am still yet to play but at least I have most of the figures I need and am starting to re-paint them.

If only I could get a few more of the characters like Bazooka Joe and Sigrid (?) from the original starter sets. I have not found them anywhere

Thanks for taking the time to share. You work is inspirational

Happy Gaming,

Allan

They look great… a question about the landing craft. How much work was it to widen the model and how much did you have to widen it by? I was going to buy the landing craft from Dust-models.com that looks just like that but if your model is cheaper, I would consider that instead as long as there wasn't too much conversion work needed. If there was alot of work involved, I would probably rather spend the few extra bucks on the official dust model and save my time for other projects.

Easy Peasy strombole. Simply snip off the forward deck lengths, glue the side panels of the cargo bay directly onto the inside of the hull and cut a few spacers to block the gaps (the red card on the pictures on my website) it really is as easy as that! The tank bases fit exactly into the cargo bay….stroke of luck!

have fun

Commissar squad and an additonal Close Combat squad added for the double the shotgun trouble using the Commissars special ability!

I don't suppose you have more pictures of that conversion earlier in the process? That landing craft looks great.
