Six Ogres for 6E



Here they are done at last, my North American Combine Ogre Red Eye Brigade. For definitions of done that mean I still have my home brew OGRE Ninja to finish off, and I recently I was promised an original Mk4 too, which is wending its way to me. As you can see, while the Mk6 is big, the Mk5 is a bulky beast.


For size comparisons here we have the new Mk4 with a MK3b.


Now the Mk6 with a Mk3. The Mk6 is longer than a Mk5, but less bulky.


The originals, and arguably the best? I've since discovered that my Mk5 is not a Martian Metals version, but the first run from SJG, before they improved it for the later release from Ral-Partha.

I'm really looking forward to using these at Dragonmeet in December when I'm running demo games as a MiB. So if you can make the show, come along and see the beasties in the metal and perhaps play a game against my Terror Tree?

  3. I would like to hear how you got the lining done. Did you paint multiple layers or did you do a wash?

    1. Washes, then go over and paint the original colour on top to make it pop.

    1. Me too, but mostly for the maps, and the box, the latter because it is shiny.
