Subject: [GZG] [OT] New pictures of some 2mm Sci-fi greens
Hi Just put up a page on the ol website showing the latest set of 2mm Sci-fi greens I've produced. Not sure there is much that you lot could corrupt for 15mm or 25mm games but have a look and pass comment if you feel the need:) http://www.germy.co.uk/pictures/sculpting/wip3.htm Jeremey www.germy.co.uk

I too think the hover droids are clever, but are they meant to be phalon technology? > On 12/2/05, Germy <germ@germy.co.uk> wrote:

Wait a minute; if it's 2mm scale, and the infantry are 3mm... What monsters! 8-10 foot tall, right?!? How Evil Empire(tm) of you! Just teasing, of course. Forgiving my continued living in Imperial times, but three millimeters is about an eighth of an inch, right? HOW DO YOU DO IT? Fiendishly clever surgical micro tools? Stretching green stuff until thread thick, and hack millions of little pieces with a razor knife, and scoop up the ones so deformed that'll assemble into what you want? I LOVE the 'pea' wheels. Have you painted any up yet? I'm assuming a dot of flat black with make them more wheel like. The_Beast

I came into some birthday and Christmas money. I'd like to get some of these, preferably with infantry and artillery! Also, are the infantry sculpted onto a base? (They would probably be a lot easier to handle if they were...)

The question becomes: how are the bases to be done? Square/circle or strings... Brings up a question I had of those interested in these. Anybody thinking of making 3d game pieces for board games?

> Also, are the infantry sculpted onto a base? (They would probably be No the base was just an idea. The infantry are all individual. I may make some more so far I have done a Commander, trooper, heavy weapons trooper and missile launcher trooper. Someone has asked for power armour but I'm trying to not make that look like just a tall guy! As to the size, I had to allow a bit of scale creep to get some detail in. They still look ok along side the vehicles which is the main thing. Pic to prove it: www.germy.co.uk/pictures/sculpting/infantryscale2.jpg Jeremey www.germy.co.uk

> Just teasing, of course. Forgiving my continued living in Imperial Well not wanting to give too much away......basically I do start with cutting out the shape bit like cutting pastry shapes. Then when that has hardened I add the weapons, backpack, back of helmet etc. so it's not flat. Seems to work ok. Oh and bit of trivia for you. That is the second commander figure I have made, the first one bounced off my work surface and I've never found him. Obviously made him out of 'yellow stuff'! Only have the original wheeled vehicles so not painted any yet. Jeremey www.germy.co.uk

Hm. The drone is larger than I anticipated... I kind of figured that it'd be in the 3-5mm range in height. Still damned cute. :) John John K. Lerchey Assistant Director for Incident Response Information Security Office Carnegie Mellon University > On Fri, 2 Dec 2005, Germy wrote: > Well.....
