Paolo Parente's DUST: Allied Walker Crew Kit Unboxed!

Old School here. Today's Un-boxing and review will cover the Allied Walker Crew Accessory fro Paolo Parente's DUST. For those of you unfamiliar with the site. Paolo's site sells high quality, resin miniatures, including many unique units that may not have Warfare rules, but look really great. I would say his site is what Forge World is to Games Workshop. Anyway, I wanted a way to dress up my Allies Walkers and for $4.99 plus $2 shipping I couldn't go wrong. I did a little video that walks through the kit and how it functions below

Interview: Andy Chambers and Dan Sprietzer on DUST, Black Library and Blood Red Skies!

During our coverage of the Dropzone Games Grand Opening, Wolfson, our East Coast Team Manager, got the chance to sit down for lunch with Andy Chambers (Freelance writer/Developer) and Dan Sprietzer (President of Dropzone Games). Needless to say, the interview and post interview were a little surreal! For those of you who don't know Andy or Dan, I have provided their backgrounds at the bottom of the interview. Enjoy.

DUST Allies Mickey Walker Painted Up!

Old School here with my kill point for the week, this time, I am showing off my first DUST Warfare model; the Mickey! When I first saw Paulo Parente's artwork for DUST Tactics, the Mickey was the very first walker I saw and I thought it was cool and I wanted to paint one some day. It is fitting then that my first model in my Allies army is the famous M2 Medium Walker. Let's take a look at the pics:

Easy Camouflage Patterns with Silly Putty Masking!

Old School here to share a quick tip for those of you who want to use camouflage in your armies. I have struggled with tape and paint-on stuff for some time and never got the actual camo effect I have seen on various vehicles in my military career. I read about using Silly Putty for masking on a WWII forum and decided to give it a try ...

Dust Axis Zombies

CVinton here to post my first painted Dust Warfare stuff. I love the axis zombies so of course they would be the first thing I painted. After cleaning the mold lines, disassembling a little and repriming I was ready to paint.

I want to go with the prisoner theme so they have the classic concentration camp wear. After that they needed a little more gruesome of a look so out came the blood effect.

A little cork basing material with some plasticard tile pieces and the bases were done. I would have liked to use the brick style plasticard but being the middle of the night I really didn't have it available.

I'm very happy with how these guys turned out and am excited for the next Dust stuff I have to paint.

It Came From the Forums: Zombies, Gorillas and Hot Chicks!

Old School here with our first ever DUST Warfare It Came From the Forums post. The love must be shared and we have certainly found an army worth sharing! The army we look at today is Popg0estheworld's Axis Army. This army is living testament to the quality of the DUST line and to the painters from the DUST community.  Let's take a look at this incredible army!
