@limburger Epic Eldar have been an epic pain. The detail photo I show of one of the Wraith Knights has the checkered white that I masked off with scale wire mesh and airbrushed over. You can see it on the grav tank in the group photo. The bad part was that the white gets lost on the yellow.

@dawfydd female heads with berets and such you can snag from Statuesque minis. They have three sizes to pull from for scale. If I remember right the largest scale works with GW and maybe into the middle range. I got some and had to figure that I needed the middle and smallest for other ranges. More and more the small scale of Kill Team might just push me to build/paint one or a few for fun.

I think that limburger’s infernal combustion engine is a good idea on that. Perhaps if the technology were used in an oxygen deficient environment out in space (also for temperature being well below Earth’s) that might work.

@robert I’m glad you enjoy BB as well for this iteration as well. Looking at the progress of the animation for the games has made me a bigger fan and pushing me to the tabletop again. Thanks for the encouragement on the Eldar.

@evilstu Yikes! I have thought that the small force I’ve been doing was arduous. You’ve got your hands full. Slaanesh centaurs? I dug about and those were a thing for Realms of Chaos. I think that the Bright Stallions for Eldar in Epic were what got mentioned. As far as the Eldar I have going its just a set of figures that one of my fellow game group members had sitting around unpainted that I thought might be interesting. I have learned my lesson on painting armies that I do not play or scale I prefer. I’ll stay at about my 1/56 range thank you (1/10 busts are a different matter).

@mage Really? You were cutting yourself just to get to the minis? Egad. The photos are current condition of the figures. Now considering teddybear skins I think that yes that might well be a bit barbaric as Justin has received his death dealing bear, “Bob”. As far as the book In think that the concept has been done a few times in things I’ve seen on DriveThruRPG.
