New MiniPaintball Game Player w/Pics

[DReW]

These are the figs I have painted up as the first team. I wanted to paint them up to represent the ragtag look of guys and gals who play paintball near me and do not have fancy camouflage uniforms or even paintball jerseys. The odd small dots that look like bare metal are not bare metal. They are the sharp edges of the model where the paint is reflecting the light back. I just went and checked out all of the figures in and out of a direct light source and that seems to be the diagnosis.

The second team will be completed in a similar paint scheme except will have blue for the team color.

I am very happy with the way these turned out and I can't thank Ebob enough for sculpting these figures and creating such a fast-paced and enjoyable game of miniature paintball.

Cool! they look great! You know the guy with his hand on the hopper? you should find some small beeds or something for the base like he's just dropped a load of ammo on the ground

I most certainly will. I'm thinking some clay rolled small will do the trick. I might even try my hand at sculpting a pod that was dropped for his base as well. I cannot imagine a bead being small enough, even a pinhead would be too large I would think.

Bob, I took the paintball game and rules to where I teach. During free time the last 3 days the kids have been tearing through their homework to be able to ge to play. It's a lot of fun and while they were playing I kept the rules loose so they could get a feel for it and then add more as we went along. The flag games were awesome. Getting the flag into the enemy base was pretty tough.

I took some notes and was going to forward you them via email to give you some feedback on the game as you said you hadn't received any yet.

Will post up more pics when the second team arrives!

Thanks for the positive comment.
