Subject: [DS2]: mini pics

everyone,

i am looking for pics of Adler Dark Star 6mm fig and buildings as well as the
Irregular mini 6mm pics. i'm looking to expand my DS2 armies, but the web
sites where they are sold have very few pics.

can you point me to those you know of, so i can check them out?

thanks a bunch,

The detail of the actual minis isn't great, but the DS2 photos I've got at
<http://warbard.iwarp.com/ds2gallery.html> have Irregular tanks in them
-
the big, big hovertanks in one of the photos...

I'll stick some of my Irregular 6mm stuff in front of the camera next time I
take minis photos, but that'll be a couple of weeks away, at least.

when you refer to the lack detail, do you mean the Adler Dark Star minis or
the Irregular minis, or both?  is the lack of detail noticable 2-3 feet
away or just up close?

i'll check out the pics that you currently have. let me know when to look
again for the irregular stuff -- no rush.  i still have B5 Fleet Action
minis to mount and paint for my FT B5 universe....

thanks brian!

Sorry - fuzzy phrasing there. I meant to say that the photos aren't the
best, if all you're interested in is the Irregular hovertanks.

The Irregular minis are decent, and they paint up nicely, but they've far less
detail than the GZG 6mm stuff. At tabletop distances, it's less noticable, of
course. (Main problem with my Irreg stuff is that they need
stripping and repainting...) I haven't got any of the Dark Star/Adler
vehicles, but I've got a couple of terrain pieces from the same line and the
detail seems very nice.

If you don't have too many minis to deal with at any one time, you're doing
something wrong! It's hard to have too much lead and pewter around the
place... I'll keep you posted on the Irregular closeups.
