I noticed there wasn't much conversion potential.

I'm going to be working the color fade on the model's, mainly fading red to yellow on the armor trim plating and grey to white on the armor itself. I've also thought of doing some fading from white - red - yellow on area's like the arms, I'm not sure how this will turn out, I'll probably try it on one of the little jacks.

How pose able are the model's would it be hard to reposition the legs on a jack to stand on a rock or dramatic strut?

It's going to require some cutting. I would imagine just changing leg stances shouldn't be too bad considering how blocky the joints are.

Normally, the legs are one piece and attach right to the torso / pelvis. That's my experience with the plastic jacks anyway.

When it comes to resin bases I'm a fan of Dragon Forgehttp://www.dragonforge.com/ and Secret Weapon http://www.secretweaponminiatures.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=79.

I did my IG using dragonforge bases and while they look good i've since switched to scibor bases out of poland. FAR more detail and somewhat more money

Thanks

I there any good sites people can suggest to get good resin bases for them?

I see in most of the pictures that the menoth mini's have broken up flag stone on there bases, is there a reason for this?




I bought some Kerr and King for my retribution and I like the quality and sculpts:

Cool bases, possibly the worst website I've ever seen.
