I was particularly drawn in by the variety of poses, ideal for the Skirmish style of games I enjoy. Once I got the full set in hand, I got them printed out at 0.05mm layer depth on the Mars Pro, undercoated and&#8230;. left for about six months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, while cleaning out my WIP trays, I found this set and decided that actually, with the new rules in progress, a set of more &#8220;human&#8221; fighters would be really handy to have together. Also, seeing as I have a box of 30-something ultramodern figures on their way, it made sense to paint something different as a break.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This first set of four was a real test set, trying to find out the best colours and techniques. I&#8217;ve got another seven figures of this to do, so more details coming soon once I finish them all off. However, I&#8217;m super happy with how good they look even off my older printer with the worse settings. Definitely still able to punch above it&#8217;s weight, espeically with my level of painting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1446\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/PXL_20220508_222037021.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25522\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/PXL_20220508_222037021.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/PXL_20220508_222037021-150x113.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As an aside, I&#8217;m also a fan of just how these regular humans make the monstrous even more impressive to look.
