EDIT: I have updated a couple of pictures to the thread. The original links do not work anymore due to certain free photo service shutting down. If I find time/energy I will update some of them at some point (if someone's interested in something I can upload that pic, they're all somewhere.

Hello,

I'm trying to paint some figures usable in 3rd edition Gamma World and some post-apocalyptic skirmish games. Here are some figures painted for fun/RPG. I try to paint these to a reasonably (not excessive) standard.



Collecting figures was fun and I have about 40 from various manufacturers in the queue. I'll try to finish the figures representing characters in our sporadic Gamma World campaign first and then move on to the skirmish warband -style figs.

I'll write a longer intro when I have time ;)

This is a Big Mutant intented for "This is Not a Test" post-apocalytic game. Figure is Heresy's Big Boris with some modifications. Smaller guy is there to give scale.

PIC

It does not actually shine, I just took the pic in poor lighting and the varnish was not dry. The base is not complete, I'll put some grass etc. on several figures when I have them all painted to this stage.

Thanks for the comment, Brummie :)

Where did you get That Bow?

Great figures!

Bow is scratch-built: green stuff, plasticard, wire and needles/pins (arrows).

I really love this warband.  It really is evocative of Gamma World.

Thanks for the comments! I had a little extra spare time and thus I finished a badger and a tree (Gamma World PC's).

PIC

Finding reasonable mutant plants is rather hard - I've got a couple from CP Models and Ral Partha (checked Ramshackle games and couple of other manufacturers), plus the Fungoid from Mirliton, but still...

Just to note that bases will receive some grass and stuff, but I'll finish them when I have more models painted (it's messy).

Second that.
And please tell where the tree is from as well :)

Very nice.  My favorite plant model is the dryad type model holding an AK-47 from Ramshackle Games.  Also give Hydra Miniatures a look to:

Finally, GW dryads would work as well.  I aim to have a plant warband for TNT eventually.

Thanks for the comments!

Badger is a Reaper familiar (can be purchased separately, which I did). Tree is Ral Partha's "Demon Tree".

Deathwing: I checked Hydra, but their stuff was not what I was after. Reaper has a funny tree in "Bones" range and there are some single random alien plants elsewhere, but that's pretty much it. Maybe I'll take a second look at Ramshackle.

Great stuff and the badger is amazing.

OI don't know whether this would fit the aesthetics of your Gamma World but if I were looking for mutant plants I'd go for Poison Ivy's plant slaves by Knight Models:
