More Beta Testing


Have you seen Independence Day 2?  I haven't, but you don't have to go to the movies to see an alien invasion of The Sunset Lands... because they're invading the Weird West too!!


This is Beta 2, who provides some serious fire support for a Watcher posse in Wild West Exodus.


In keeping with the rest of the official color schemes, Beta 2 had to almost entirely gray.  To get just a hint of additional colors, I reflected a tiny amount of the sand onto the bottom of the legs.


The deadly green glow is unique to the Watchers, and was done with the usual Vallejo fluorescent paints.


As we approach the 4th of July, we find ourselves in the midst of the Wild West Exodus 4th of July sale.  This is the best time to experiment with a new posse, since the character, light and heavy support miniatures are always the most expensive items.

You only need 1 boss and 1 heavy support, so this is typically the time I went and got myself some major firepower!!
