Here’s a quick test paint of one of my 6mm Moongrunt conversions – only cracked out the number 1 brush, so if I do more I’ll use a 00 and use Vallejo Silver Grey, then save true white for the highlight. Still, as a proof of concept I think it works OK.
I’m struggling to find other 6mm vaccsuits, so I’ll likely have to do 2 factions using the same infantry. I likes ’em though, and doing this test paint has encouraged me to reconsider individually based 6mm.
yes reconsider 6mm skirmish with individual bases, do it, do it now!

Maybe! I’m still not 100% convinced though. I do like the 10mm bases I got off Warbases though.

Haha you’ve done most of the tempting anyway! I just need to paint up a few squads and see how it goes I guess, it’s pretty low investment.

Have you considered Darkest Star Federation/Ventaurans?

For vaccsuits? No actually, I’d forgotten about those… I’m UK based and averse to import duties, so it’s easy to forget the US suppliers sometimes. Thanks.

I might have a few you can use from when the range were UK based. I don’t know, and I am away for a while, but I will have a look and get back to you. If I find some you can have them for free. If I have some Feds, I think they would work well for you.

Just as I was about to give up, I actually found them. How many do you need and where should I send them? My treat!
