Wow, that's a lot of kind words! Thanks so much - really flattered, and I'm glad they've gone down well.

Gnolls are one of my favourite D&D races, so it's a lot of fun to try and translate them to something that fits a sci-fi vibe.

Painted up the first gent over the last few days. I'm new to painting fur which was a bit of a learning curve, but I'm still fairly happy with the results. The drab cloth for his clothes blends a little with the tone I've used for the fur, but I'm trying to go for some variation in their colouring so hopefully it'll balance out once the others are done.



I'd really love any C&C on this bloke, as I'm working through the others as well. Always looking to improve, so please fire away

very nice indeed. I got myself the Northstar scoff arms and weapons set too so will do some knolls and cultists too.

Thanks, folks! I do like the look of the Northstar sci- fi arms, but I've not actually got my hands on any of them. These particular ones are from the gnoll kit with part of a Victoria miniatures las rifle, and a lot of the others are just altered gnoll kit ones. I'm glad you like them!

Today's update is Pascha the Runt, leader of this pack. I hope you like her!


I'm still trying to get a decent tonal separation between the gear that the Maroques have produced themselves and the gear they've 'acquired' - greys, whites and blacks for stolen equipment to match some troopers I've already made, with greens, browns and drabs for their own equipment.

Here's a quick shot of the two of them together.


As always, C&C much appreciated. Hope everyone's having a good weekend!

Those are great. SF Gnolls would never occur to me but those are totally convincing.

Thanks, Dentatus!

I've always had a soft spot for the 'space scavenger' archetype, and the models just seemed to fit for me. I'm glad you like them!

Very nice indeed - the shotgun arm looks totally natural!

Thank you axiom! I'm glad it comes together okay.

One more for the pile today, though work has certainly made progress pretty slow lately -


Found this gent a bit of a pain to paint for some reason, but I'm pretty happy with how he came out. I've been trying to push my highlighting a little bit, as that's an area I feel I've been lacking in the past. As always, I'd love to hear any C&C, good or bad. Thanks for looking.

These look great -  they work really well as sci-fi minis.

These are terrific!

I've converted a couple of gnolls for sci-fi purposes in the past (here and here), but yours are a much more coherent bunch - and great inspiration to get some more done!
