As somebody mentioned Ogryns:
Does anyone know of a good 6mm Ogryn type figure? ?
I am a little bored with having all my figures identical and as I want to build an Ogryn Assault Company (  ) I prefer to have some diversity in there. Some good proxies would save me lots of annoying modifications.

If any one is keeping track, I "re-decaled" my 3 OGREs and now they belong to my Chaos Cultists. I used a lot of WWII Russian transfers. ?
They are not only Cultists but Commies, it appears!!!

Pendraken miniatures also makes 10mm sci-fi. I use their "predator aliens" and lizardmen with sci-fi weapons as proxies for units in the slann army.

I know Pendraken tends to be large for 10mm. Doesn't that make them too big for Epic?
Could you post a picture with some and some Epic?

What about Warmaster Orks with a few weapon and/or head changeouts?

If anyone is going to order from Pendraken, let me know. ?
I might want to order some egg clusters & Aliens? ?
You can never have too many of those!

Hi!
I'm in the process of moving right now, but I'll try to get a couple of pictures with GW figures for scale. They have some robots that would make some wierd dreadnoughts and the predator and alien figs are good tyranid and other monstrous humanoids. Give me a day or two and I'll see what I can photograph.

No worries, there are a lot of things I plan on doing once I move, lots of pictures need to be taken.

Tas,
I bought a whole pile full of Clickie-Tech TM Mechwarrior (MW)stuff while back for about a quarter (US) a piece. Istarted removing them from their Clickie TM stands today when I realized that they may be the perfect figures for you to earn your Armageddon Ogryn Head Hunter title on.
The bodies are a little lean, but a head swap would probably look pretty good. I'll see if I can mold the Ogryn's head and start putting Ogryn faces on MW infantry bodies.
On a side note, I'll probably get by my sister's place tonight and get some photos for you of my Scotia proxies and especially my new general command stands.
Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

After reviewing the Pendraken list, I'm thinking of ordering Egg pods - for terrain, Alien Predators for 'Nids and Lizardmen for Kroot. ?
If any of you have these, let me know if these will work? ?
Any other recommendations? ?
Thanks,
