Heavy Gear - One Less Footslogger Pt. 1

I haven't been inspired to paint much. Between some serious family tragedy, the holidays, and a move, I haven't had the time or urge to put paint to anything. However, time has passed and I've gotten back in the swing of things. One thing I've really wanted to to with my Heavy Gear army is get my infantry much more involved in the battle. Typically they bunker up in a building in my deployment zone and take reactionary and opportunistic shots with the odd anti-gear rifle or mortar here and there. While being annoying to my opponent, I think they can do better. So stick'em in a jeep and lets let'em loose! I've heard that the combo of the ORV and the rocket launcher can cause great headaches, and I'm looking forward to trying it out. Here is my first squad of ORV infantry, and I'm currently working on getting a second squad mechanized as well:





I forgot to add my dog ate the far left Antelope, so his wheel is a bit off and he has a nice bitemark in the windshield. Ah, the joys of pet ownership. Until next time!

  1. Ate or chewed on. If it's the latter I don't wanna know how you got it back from him.

  2. LOL, definitely chewed on; if it was eaten I'd gladly pay the 25 bucks to get a new one!

  3. So, blaming the dog for the modeling mishaps now.......At least your dog didn't hop up and swipe lead from your painting area and hide it in the couch. I did have that one happen.....

  4. This won't be the only one, my dog has gotten another Antelope from my new set and chewed a resin roof for one of my buildings I've got to pieces!

  5. Your models look amazing! Do you mind telling me what color and highlight you use for that yellow/brown?
