Nope I made them myself. They're more detailed than the FW ones, IMO, and better-scaled (slightly smaller) too.

OOoo, very exceptionally nice then! Is the same true of the crisis suits?

Also is the difference in sizes a really obvious one (ie would they look silly next to each other?)

Finally found time to paint some more minis.

Broadside suits.


These look suitably imposing. Would not like to see them on the other side of the board....would be happy to see them on mine ;D

Yup, FW crisis suits are about 20% too big.

Not hugely. Mine just look a bit more "correct" to the eye.

You shouldn't be painting. Send them to me to paint instead :)

Looks pretty good so far, how long till you get to the vehicle conversions?

I should be able to paint some Hammerheads & Devilfish in 1-2 weeks.

The infantry/suits look awesome, are they metal/resin? The FW epic resin infantry was always really fragile, are these usable without damage?

Metal, for that very reason.

is the reason your stuff looks so much better than GW stuff solely because they typically hand-sculpt their epic figs, or do you use a better casting method? oh and *drool* inspiring work!
