More Colour Talk

Tooling around the internet trying to find colours and I came across this site:



100% go visit and support The Colors of Motion. Seriously. They are doing something super cool and we should all try to give them a couple bucks if we're able to. I will eventually. But right now I am still budgeting for getting this army to the table in an undisclosed reasonably short (January 2021) period. 

Django Unchained



Mad Max: Fury Road



Still looking for a design inspiration that isn't cringe-inducing. I have stuff from an older project that never really got off the ground. But I'll leave that for a later date. For now we continue the search.
Tooling around the internet has its uses and I can tell you that this is one of the most fun I have run across in my "How do I assemble an ol' west, scrappy, wasteland raider aesthetic".

Agri-Planet business is booming

Fleshy Colours and First Steps

Okay, I cancelled some of my other purchases (thanks Phantek for saying that you had a case for me, taking my money for a couple months and never sending anything?)

My first thought was to buy a box of acolytes and sort out the flesh, carapace and clothing colours.

I know that that sentence is a mess so when I get the first sets of this stuff done I will start sharing actual pictures from my progress. I am still ver...
