15mm G.I. Joe Cobra Infantry (and H.I.S.S.)

Once I changed my mind about which miniatures I wanted use for my 15mm Team Yankee Yugoslavian infantry force, I had a few extra metal East German miniatures that I didn't know what to do with.  I decided to prime them blue and then quickly paint them up as Cobra infantry  I didn't dip these models, but instead used Army Painted washes as there were so few bases.

These miniatures may come in handy as a small group of generic bad guys for 15mm Superhero gaming, as NPCs in a game of 15mm "What A Tanker!", or as something else I haven't yet considered.   The H.I.S.S. Tank is out of scale, but close enough for my needs - it was produced by Running Press and released back in 2014.

Classic Warhammer Fantasy Miniatures: Bloodletters of Khorne

A few month ago, I picked up some mid-1990s Khorne Bloodletters from Ebay.  This iteration of Bloodletters are much more chunky than the 1989 originals (the arched, lithe Alan Perry versions from the Slaves to Darkness volume of Realm of Chaos).  

The models that I won were sculpted by Aly Morrison and Colin Dixon around 1996.  I repainted them, adding in a deeper, more vibrant red, along with some blue highlights and over-brushing.  I then rebased them to match a small, fully painted Chaos army I also won off of Ebay.  I think they match those models fairly well and combined they will give me a smallish Chaos force to meet my Wood Elves in future skirmishes....
