Cool. Where did you get pink tap dancing elephants?

Currently, I've got a generic DSII army (mostly GEV) painted in animal
camoflage.  I didn't want my tanks to be un-camo'ed, but I didn't want
them to disappear into the terrain, either. So I've got Tigers (heavy tanks),
Cheetahs (fast assault tanks), Leopards (DFFG tanks), Hornets (VTOLs), Zebras
(APCs), Skunks (missile artillery), Giraffes (artillery with long tubes that
look like necks), and a Cow (giant mech painted
like a Holstein - alternately referred to as "the Gateway Mech" and
"Ogden"). Oh, and my command vehicle doesn't really fit the paint
scheme - it's painted like a brain.

Irregular make 'em (the elephants; the pink outfits would be the
product of Beth's own imagination <g>) in two sizes -- 6mm and 25mm, I
think? Need to check my catalogue at home.

Phil, remembering the story of the gamer who used to put camp follower minis
in with whatever unit had performed the best in his most recent game. Would he
therefore put the pink elephants in with the unit that
performed the _worst_, on the grounds that they needed to drown their
sorrows, and deserved the DT's? <g>
