HOTT The Purge

Nice one

+1 also. Using bird colors opens a world of possibilities but, Terry, wouldn't this element be called a "flock"?

Thank you gentlemen for the kind remarks. This has really been a very enjoyable project. Not one I took a lot of seriousness in, but really to just have fun creating some funny and colorful elements. Had to do some research into what gangers might look like and being honest even some of the pictures I saw were scary!!!

Bill, a interesting suggestion!!! I checked the rules for a "Flock" element but the closest I could come up with was a Flier. Somehow I don't see these bad boys actually being able to fly, so I'll leave them as a Warband.....or maybe a Warband Flock!!!!

You could try the collective nouns route:

I've finished the base coats on the last Ganger Warband element - they're sort of a elitist punk rocker type group. One has a big Mohawk and one is a converted riot policeman wearing a motorcycle helmet, and baseball catchers pads (and he turned out very cool I think). The last guy is just a big tuff - all brawn and no brain! Definitely fun ones to paint up. I hope to do the shading and Highlighting tomorrow and share pictures. Then I'll start basing the entire army and start working on the Stronghold. Two of the figures I know are Rebel, and the third, the guy with the Mohawk might also be. This gives me 26 points for eh army so i can swap out the clowns as some find them too creepy. Painted really quickly and I a looking forward to getting them into play!

The Stronghold will be a couple of lower income storefronts and apartments above, so there will be some conversion to turn the buildings to that description.

More soon,

OK, all of the figures are now painted, and glued to their bases. The next step is to do up the bases and paint them, then properly do the Stronghold and it's ready for action. Due to a friend's preference to not deal with clowns, I have two versions. After all, the local guys respect my immense fear of spiders and so do not play them, I can easily understand.


Here's the final Warband element - a mixed bag of thugs!


Here's option A, with the Birdwatchers. Note the buildings in the back ground. They will eventually be converted into a store on the lower left building and painted up as a lower income area of a large city.  Those are 6 MM Leven models and I really like them for my HOTT armies.


Here's option B, with the clowns.

So, it's on to the basing now!!!

Super job! I like the clowns in the line up as they really stand out, in a creepy sort of way.
