This model is the 1980s Grenadier Miniatures sculpt and it holds up surprisingly well for it's age. There are a few minor rough spots, but those are more due to the casting techniques of the day than any flaws of the sculpt itself. The size is also spot on, and makes for a really imposing model. The base is a Fenris Games resin base, to which I've added the usual flagtile texture. These are the only bases I've found that are big enough to accommodate this mighty beast.
Supposedly at 25mm scale, the old Grenadier model is just about the right size for the newer 30mm sculpts:

Easy now, big cat, we're not looking for any trouble. |
Fantastic job on Battlecat!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm not saying it painted itself, but it was relatively easy to work with for a model that's over 30 years old.
