Useful for all manner of sci-fi games and with a ton of spares for kitbashing and converting in the boxes, the Wargames Atlantic Bulldogs will make a great addition to anyone's collection. I think those pith helmets are going to end up on a lot of Imperial Guard!
Check out the pre-order page for the Bulldogs over at Wargames Atlantic's main site: wargamesatlantic.com/collecti... One of the neat things for us EU-based hobbyists is that they handle IOSS for most orders, meaning you don't have to worry about paying additional customs fees or duties even though they're shipping from a UK-based warehouse. Nice!

THE BASES: First base is Vallejo Earth Texture 'Brown Earth,' drybrush Tyrant Skull, paint base rim in Vallejo Brown Sand. A couple tiny dots of PVA and some static grass, and done! The second base is Stirland Mud heavily drybrushed with Ryza Rust, then Eldar Flesh. As the paint runs out on your brush, start drybrushing roughly up the boots and legs to tie in the dusty colours to the miniature. Base rim painted in Rhinox Hide, Highland Grass tufts from Army Painter.

This is another useful box for steampunk lovers, I remember reading in the early '80s a french comic about 19th century europeans colonizing the space(!), don't remember the name, but this could be an interesting premise.

I wanted sci-fi brodie helms for so long. From the release (and my brothers interest) of Les Grognards I dreamed of Space Waterloo. But since by nephew gained a love for mini painting I gave my box of Bulldogs to him for his birthday. My dream of Space Waterloo can live on their shelf, a good father son project for them to bond over.

Holy smokes man. I would have never thought this kit was something that I would be interested in. The boxart didn't sell me on them. But seeing the grey and the sprue is nice! These are actually really great.
@SonicSledgehammerStudio
@SonicSledgehammerStudio Год назад
Yeah, I have to agree. I think the ones painted for the box cover are prototypes or something, too - their knee pads are a different shape to the ones that're on the sprues now, and I didn't much like how they looked to begin with. They're much nicer than I'd thought!

Those weapons are sweet. I've seen someone kitbash Le Grognards with WGA's WW1 Germans. Those lasguns needed some serious kitbashing. Using those rifles would be a big upgrade to make them look better.

Great review. Makes me even more tempted to get a box for a Stargrave Crew (the mixed nature of stargrave crews would also be a great excuse to use ALL the helmets...)
@timothyyoung2962
@timothyyoung2962 Год назад
What caught my eye with these guys was the brodie helmets with the gas masks. That, combined with the options to go full WWI/WWII diesel punk with them is the seller for me. I REALLY like how the WWI inspired fellow turned out. I've been waiting for the new Traitor Guard for Kill Team to come out (to add to my Blackstone Fortress dudes), but I might have to put off buying them just yet and grab me a box of these guys. I just love diesel punk aesthetic and these guys have it in spades. And you can never beat Wargames Atlantics prices vs. quality of their box sets. I have a few and I've never been disappointed yet. Yeah, buying these guys this week for sure and then using this tutorial to bang a bunch out for old Kill Team and Stargrave.

I was really looking forward to these but they were supposed to (or at least stated to) come out a couple of months ago. Ended up just grabbing some regular ww2 brits from a couple of boxes to make up a skirmish force instead. They do look good enough to tempt me again though :)

@Bluecho4 Год назад
Even though SpaceNam will be one of the less value-for-money kits (20 models for $40, rather than 24 for $35 that's standard for WA), it's still a better deal than GW Catachans. Better sculpts, too. Reptilian Overlords really do some great work, and I'm glad they're working with Wargames Atlantic on this.

I am working on a box of them right now, and there are some *serious* warts. First, there are not enough guns to put the whole box together with any one type lf gun. Then there are not enough different poses with the arms. They'll look like linedancers in a real hurry. Finally, there is not any greebling, pouches, knives, etc. It is really hard to kit these out as say a guard platoon. I used the frame covers for the build, and will use the beret heads to make cadian veterans later. I rate these about a 7/10.
@wargamesatlantic4740
@wargamesatlantic4740 Год назад
Sorry you’re disappointed. We can only fit so much on each sprue. We try to go for maximum weapon options because we know not every figure will have a standard rifle. In this case you can give 5/6ths standard ones
@bopaintsminis
@bopaintsminis Год назад
@@wargamesatlantic4740 Not enough submachine guns (since they look the most sci-fi). I'd like to see eighteen of the subguns. That would make two ten man squads with eight subguns, one heavy weapon, and one sgt with pistol and sword. How about an upgrade sprue like the one Deathfields one.

Hey! Just wanted to know, for the highlight, is it Loren Forest or Straken Green for the highlight on Castellan Green? I figured it's Straken Green as that's the one listed in the description, but just wanted to be sure, as I quite liked the way it looks. Thanks! ;)
@SonicSledgehammerStudio
@SonicSledgehammerStudio Год назад
Pretty sure it's Straken Green I'd used. Loren Forest is usually the suggested highlight, but Straken Green's a little more rich.

Been looking forward to this! After seeing your original painting video with the Praetorian converted with some anvil parts, I ended up building and painting my own in that style! Looking at these, I think my guard might be getting some new conscripts :) A question you might be able to answer, do the bodies scale well at all with the cadian arms/lasguns? I have a ton leftover, so would be an easy way to make them fit in a bit more with a 40k army
@SonicSledgehammerStudio
