My God! A squad!

A scout sniper - does exactly what it says on the tin

Now he\'s to go with a squad, so I\'m not doing ultra detail, but before I carry on sticking more \"leaves\" and stuff on him, does that cape look ok?

 

[Thunderhawker]

For a TT fig that is good stuff. I was going to say something about more leaves but you already hit that Cannot wait to see the whole squad.

If you are going to stick leaves/ground clutter all over it like a ghillie suit, your base paint should be fine.

If you are going to paint the cammo on it like Realtree or Mossy Oak, then you need a bit more.

here is a great guide for that sort of thing.
Try the Advantage Classic.

Here it is in use:

Pretty effective AH!
I was gonna just stick a few more leaves over the paintjob tbh - not too many though as they\'re brittle and I\'d never be able to pick him up! lol

More of the Ghillie suit effect then?

So I\'m still working on the squad of scouts, and decided to make them a display base

Whaddya think of the base so far...?

looking good dan but imo i would add for stuff like trees etc for camouflage. its seems to open that there isnt enough cover for a sniper if that makes sense, but thats just my opinion other will probably disagree.

do we get to see the squad in the base

The squad is half done, so I\'ll get another picture taken soon - it\'s not specifically for the sniper, but I get what you mean.

But then, what\'s a DISPLAY base if you can\'t see the sniper? lol

 

[alextheartist]

A display base?

 

[DaN]

@Alex - yes...

Anyway - here it is pretty much finished I think and a final shot with the half-finished squad mounted on/in it.
