Frogging, thats the word. Cheers Cpl. Lee, i've been calling it braiding.
Ok, well the two squads and the Officers/ncos are undercoated. After this spurt of modelling i feel like i need to get back to painting. Heres the list to see what will be coming up in the modelling/painting pipeline.
One more on the sprues, planning on arming it with a shortened lascannon and it will have the traditional 20mm GS'ed base as the roof.
Not sure if i should post this here, but it will allow you to know whats in the pipline in terms of modelling.
The list is as follows:

995pts (now that the colonel has lost his bionics).
Not part of the list are the 3 fantasy ogres on sprues lying around doing nothing. 3 Ogryns come to 75 and so are virtually interchangeable with the Ratling squad. They would be a blast to convert and allow me a bit more tactical freedom.
