I had a thought this morning after using decals on the gunship yesterday. I knew some of the decals on the sheet were small, but I wondered if they could be used on the tiny miniatures.
Well I'm glad to say, yes they can. I had originally painted circles on their packs but these tiny symbols look a lot better.
Gunship landing and dropping off a platoon.
Company command disembarks to take control of the situation.
The little decals look good, they're so small they are hard to make out.
If the decal breaks slightly it's still good as these symbols wear off the equipment.
Once I had discovered these little decals were usable on the figures, I started to look around to see what else I could use them on.
It wasn't long before I had found another item to add decals too, the equipment crates in the gunship. This was even more satisfying because I could use a slightly bigger decal. This crate is now definitely a Republic one and even carries a fleet symbol too.
These medic crates get a big decal too.
They are a small detail but it really adds to the figure I think. I may need to invest in some medic ones as these would be great on packs and crates.
Also today while the figures were out, I decided to catch up on some basing. Omega squad gets finished off and can join the Grand army of the republic.
They look much better now with some grit and grass on the base.
One shot...one kill.
The Company headquarters base also got some lovely and is finished.
The little home made pack looks good now, I was glad I could get a decal on it.
Omega squad really stand out amongst the sea of white armour.
I used a red permanent marker to do the red lights on the rear of the helmets. I find myself using fine markers more and more on these tiny 15mm figures. I think they give you a lot more control on the little details.
