Snikrot nearing completion

Further work on my count as Snikrot.  The painting is done, just need the base...

Snikrot + Paint

I finally got to painting, and I started off with Snikrot.  Overall I am not happy with him.

Basing help

I haven't gotten around to starting Snikrot and the kommandos yet, Snikrot will be done first as I want him to stand out - though, 25 or 40mm base for him? With this in mind and and needing help on the basing.  As you might have guessed I am going for an arid desert themed basing scheme, the problem I have is that the static grass I own is for the more wet and living look.

I have had a look at the GW stuff, not really up close though, but I don't think it suits my needs.  I need a sort of static grass that looks like it might belong in a desert.  So pale in colour, maybe kinda tall (looking knee hight on a mini) and fits the desert theme.  Any ideas?

Kommandos WIP

So, I have been working on 6 Kommandos, including Snikrot and here is what I have come up with.  I am mostly proud, and think they'll look better with paint and a base on them.

I have shrunk the images down, so for larger images click on them.
