I know steve54 did some smoke trails on some of his assault marines.... I expect they were GS, twisted round repeatedly for a smokey vapour trail effect |

It maybe worth simply remounting the existing models using pipe cleaners. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File ... white1.jpg I would imagine any sort of greestuff or other work around the existing setup would be fiddly nightmare. |

I've done smoke for stormboyz - the fine cell foam that used to come in blister packs wrapped around the support wire. Mine was painted black, but you could use a "cleaner" colour such as grey or white for marines. ![]() |

Thanks for the tips guys! I'd of never of thought of using pipe cleaners or foam (those look really good by the way). I've got a few spare minis so I might base some up and have a play around so I don't mess up my painted ones. Cheers! |

Those marines are really nice, by the way - you've picked a cracking colour scheme. Those troublemaker jump pack novan elites are going to have to be next on the "to buy" list. |

Cheers. They turned out really nicely and are supposed to be 'Mantis Warriors' chapter. That's about the extent of my Troublemaker games figures until the stuff I've ordered from the crowd-funder arrives - which should be any day now (can't wait)! |

I know I'm late to the game on this, but for my Ork Stormboyz (http://directfire.blogspot.com/p/epic-orks.html) I used a wire and then stuck some Clump Foliage (http://woodlandscenics.woodlandscenics. ... mp-Foliage) to it with Super Glue. I think it worked really well, as you can build it up and get some nice effects. |
