That sci fi scene is simply amazing! It looks like a movie set straight out of star trek!

Two very nice entries. 8)
The terrain reflection on the hover-platform windscreen is brilliantly executed.  :-*

who makes that hover car?
I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it anymore and what is it seems weird and scary.

Great work on the skintones Michi, really dark African skin is tough to pull off, you did an excellent job.

who makes that hover car?

It was available as a two-pack through Pulp Alley- they released a few different skimmer types. I believe they were fairly limited- but they are 3D printed, so I presume they could make some more. This design was the 'Cerny Skimmer'. It reminded me of a retro bumper car and I thought it would look good with my retro space stuff.

The space man is a Hydra 'Commander Mudpie' with a headswap from a GW Frateris Militia (who had the lantern jaw look I wanted). The Ferrus Testudines are from the 'Frills and Fauna' Kickstarter by Krakon Games. According to the fluff they are turtle like creatures with a metallic carapace. I imagined them to be walking lumps of iron pyrite.

Thanks for the comments all, appreciated.

a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humour, reserve, and caprice.

These are the lead spears provided with either these miniatures or leftovers from Gripping Beast dark ages - I donīt remember. I just painted the tips bone/ivory instead of metal/iron.
