Now, if only you had cats - an RC King Tiger model is good for rounding them up - we use a vacuum cleaner to similar effect, they flee to their hideaways under the bed and the washroom cupboard. Only problem would be a Macule-class cat, who takes interest in mechanical stuff - Macule adores the food blender (he's not daft), and a pair of kids in the street once tried to frighten him with an RC car - not Macule: he sniffed the vehicle thoroughly and took great interest in the proceedings.

UPDATE:
Flocked one Berserker platoon. Picture in here. Unfortunately it is a bit dark; probably the white background reflected the flash.

Women just don't seem to understand... and Panzer crews are very well trained!

UPDATE:
In spite of a very busy weekend I managed to paint the bases of a thunderer detachment green in preparation for flocking. I decided not to bother with pics until the whole brotherhood is finished.

UPDATE:
I painted all of the unpainted bases (the rest of the brotherhood and a Guild Biker force) green and flocked them. Some new pics have been added here. There are pics of my first warrior brotherhood (Brotherhood of the Forest) and a guild biker force (Grugni's Hammers). I also took a pic of my whole army, which is a whopping 2500 points (using Net Epic point values) .
Next step: a new warrior brotherhood.

I have a big Squat Army too ! Glad to see that many of us keep them alive, even if the Demiurge may be distant cousins, like Vulcans & Romulans.

It will grow. I have some 10 000 points of unpainted minis at hand. When I get my stuff from Signius and add to it the stuff I get from Hergmir, with whom I just concluded a trade, it will be some 15 to 20k more. Still not a Primarchload, but a sizable force anyway.

Now I'll just have to invent a good business case (for the Sergeant Major) which proves why a 1/16th scale radio controlled King Tiger is an essential household item... 
Nev er was much of a squat fan but there's just something about those superheavies and blimps...
