I literally have no idea how many points this is, I messed up the calculation in the middle, but I think it is definitely over 14,000 mark. There was so much of it I didn't really go crazy on detail, just went for quantity over quality.

The whole shebang:

This project has taken me forever, but I am finally finished. If I paint one more of these tanks I will literally vomit. I'm hoping this means I can finally start putting my projects to bed.

Looks like I did the first post wrong, I think the links above work though.

Here is a Power armor closeup because I like the way they came out:

Very impressive! Cool

Who makes the minis? I'm guessing GZG?

You've got enough there to invade a small planet!

Do you have any opposition?

I'm particularly interested in those twin-boomed aircraft on the right, Steve. They look like they'd be kick-ass 1/600 drop ships! What are they? GZG doesn't have fotos up for all their stuff and I can't find them in the catalogue.

I see some Reaper CAV stuff if I am not mistaken? The fighter looking aircraft with the fan in the middle...

Yes they are Reaper CAV. Good to see how they scale with 6mm miniatures. I have some of the Hedgehog APC's

Yup, you guys called it right, they are CAV stuff. Apparently they are going to be resizing more of the recent N scale stuff back down to the smaller 8mmish scale, and will be releasing new minis also.

The twin boomed aircraft is the KDM Lynx. The great part is you can buy just the aircraft without the stand or base to save money:

At $3.75 they are a bargain.

I have a Pacfed oppositional force that has been partially complete for over a year. Just need to sort out infantry, some support elements, and aircraft. I will post it up when I'm finished.

The fan aircraft (called the Kikyu) are only $1.44 each!

Steve, very nice. Are they N scale? If not what scale are they?
