Deadzone: New Marauders

Way back in December I thought I'd build up my Marauders to a Firefight size force and having lots of yellow paint from the WW2 project still to use decided to go for a desert theme.

So I printed off some of the bigger pieces on my A1 and ordered up a couple of resin leaders and two army boxes from a store I use. Stu over at Cirencester did some resin bits for me as well. With the next event coming up at South Ox in August and the end of painting all the Samurai I thought I'd crack on with painting up at least a Deadzone size force. 


One issue with this is that so far from that order I've only received the two resin leaders, so no Commandoes or Rainmaker models to build up and paint.


So this has somewhat shaped the list I'm aiming to take with most of it being taken up by the prints that I've gotten done so far. The Stunt & Grunt-bots are a reasonable size so I've put on a WW2 German inspired camo scheme somewhat altered for the desert terrain as they tended to just paint everything yellow in the DAK.




The Mawbeasts came from Stu's resin printers and I've not had to worry about the camo here, they make up the majority of the Troop choices in the list.



I picked up some nice Hornet decals online and fished out some 15mm WW2 numbers from my decal box to give the big stuff some extra detailing.
