Mini Gun and a Bowler Hat

 Progress on the Guild continues.  Here is Nino Ortega, the sniper of the family and wearer of short pants.  I am a little vexed about this, but it did give me the opportunity to paint socks!
 For some odd reason, he was also hopping about doing a little jig, which wouldn't do for a sniper.  A quick look through the bitz box turned up a couple of wheels (from the death cart I believe), one of which was placed under his foot.  Much better to be using the terrain to steady a shot than doing the hokey-pokey.
 As the crew grows I also get in a couple of games here and there (a battle report will be on the RHG blog soon).  In each game Nino's rifle is a game-changer with sixteen inches and a potential four shots in a turn.  The bowler-wearing trencher is going to be a staple in many lists...
 I'm pretty content with how these guys are turning out with the osl and odd metallics.  I'm over halfway done the minis I have (soon I'll have to get more...as it is the way it goes).
Until next round!

Very cool - I like how that turned out. The subtle OSL on the crystal is well done, and the base overall is excellent. Love the stripey socks too!

Keep up the great work, man!

Really nice base for Niño and I love the paintjob too. It's very funny that you have painted the socks :D and you have made a good job with the bright of the soul stone. Congratulations.
