Its been a long time getting from there to here:

But I'm back on a roll and soon hordes of GEVs like herds of wildebeest on the plains of the Serengeti will be roling across my wargames table.

What's that BIG beast, the first AFV in the first row ?

That's a Thor Superheavy tank.

Pink, a really inspiring collection. I got as far as priming a bunch of my old Ogre Mk IIIs for a convention game of 'Exercise K' that didn't happen last year. Now with the Ogre re-release maybe I need to buckle down and get some of them actually painted, and do some little guys for them to smoosh too!

The Thor superheavies are the two vehicles in the middle of the front, one in front of the other, with two guns sticking out. I think Legion 4 is asking about the big guy in the lower left of the photo. I asked about it on her blog; it looks like a mobile (GEV) command post.

Hmm, Legion, I just realized we might be talking about two different things; the Thor is the giant, tracked tank in the center of the front row with a buddy parked behind him, the one with two main guns. If you were talking about the thing in the front row, left corner, I have no idea what it is, but my guess is that its a GEV-MCP (gev-mobile command post).

EDIT – haha, good job sneaking past me while I was writing my reply, DesertScrb!

The big hover on the lower left is an old Grenadier Paranoia "Transbot" ( link ).

I use the Iron Wind Metals Battletech M.A.S.H. Truck (currently archived) as my Mobile CP.

That makes sense … thanks for the intel update & link …

Gypsy, I use my Transbot as a MASH GEV. :)

I have another one I use as a GEV-MCP.

It's a great 25mm mini that also works in 1/300.

Well I've been a busy girl and have put up more miniature goodness on my blog.

And this are now in the Paint it Pink paint shop.

And the vehicle on the leftis a 25mm Paranoia miniature retasked as GEV-MBC. Us old school OGRE players are use to retasking miniatures to fit our needs.

Oops moment with ImageShack…

And…

All better now. Normal service resumed.

Very cool. I'm looking forward to WH23 getting the minis back in stock.

Awesome camo schemes, but I refused to re-paint mine!
