NEWS: Konflikt 47 British Commonwealth Plastic Mini's and Wigan Shops Grand Opening - Warlord Games

Hail Mighty Readers and Followers of the Luck Gods Math Rocks,

Today see's the launch of brand new plastic Konflikt 47 British Commonwealth miniatures.   

And let us just say that they're fab.  You'll see in our basic unboxing unbagging vid, that the sprues are beautiful, sharp clean lines with each piece of each mini for the Mk1 Automated Infantry and the Mk2 Heavy Infantry is easy to see what goes where, are even easier to put together and fits together an absolute dream.  

Painting wise, we really wanted to let the automaton through so we kept our scheme pretty basic, a spray of Army Painter Black Primer with a dry brushing of Vallejo Aged Metal Base, a highlight of Nihilakh Oxide Technical paint with a dab of Vallejo's Scarlet Blood for the Eye Lens with a small addition of some of Vallejo's black dipping wash (although we painted rather than dipped to get it more precise.  As to the bases, well thats, Vallejo's Thick Mud with Gamers Grass Heather Tufts and Army Painters Swamp Tufts.

Now part of the reason we wanted to keep these simple was that we wanted to be able to do something that you can quickly get on the tabletop to game with, no having a field of grey plastic waiting to trudge across the ground, no half done mini's that need a ton more work so that you've given up and of course something, that if you have all your mini's in a row, can be knocked out in one night for a full box of Mk1's and Mk2's.

For details please see our YT Video (this has sadly been delayed due to the unusual British heat but will be completed over the next couple of days.)
