Squats But Not? Simple Painting - Mantic Games Forge Fathers [How I Paint Things]

They're clearly not Squats, what without the garish yellow caps and padded red armour of the mid-90s, but how do you pass up the chance for a title like that? The only question is how many rhymes fit in a YouTube title of 100 characters and still leave all the useful information intact!

Trying to get semi-gloss white armour to show up clearly under lighting... bah!

The Forge Fathers from Mantic Games are for their Warpath and Deadzone lines, and there have been some truly stunning releases recently to accompany its 3rd Edition. Meanwhile, I've been eyeing the Dwarf Guilds for OnePageRules' Grimdark Future, wondering how long it'd take to get a couple hundred points painted up to play some quick, brutal mass battle games with these guys!
