Once again late to the party.
I have chosen four Hasslefree figure for my characters:

Dashing Pilot, Heroic Fighter, Psionic Warrior and Reliable Co-Pilot.
Just waiting for some spray paint to undercoat them.

Of course, it helps to have some opposition.
I bought an Anvil Industries Regiment (http://ultravanillasmurf.blogspot.co.uk/2017/04/anvil-industries-martian-orbital.html) at Salute, the Martian Orbital Fusileers (for their resemblance to the Dennis The Dustbin figures from Laserburn).
There was an interesting painting guide in Tabletop Games for the models included in a board game set in a galaxy far, far away. I have borrowed quite a bit from that guide for this paint job.

There is a step by step guide here (http://ultravanillasmurf.blogspot.co.uk/2017/05/anvil-industries-martian-orbital.html).
The base colour is only temporary, it will be Citadel Zandri Dust (when I actually buy some).
I am fairly happy with the scheme, now I just need to build the rest of the squad. Sometime I will get the Anvil Industries Trenchfighters MG42 weapons pack to provide some fire support.

He looks very cool, nice painting. That's a good mix of Hasslefree figures as well, I'm a big fan of their work..

Thanks Genghis.

The Psionic Warrior.

Ready to fight the forces of oppression.
Hasslefree figures Kami Riko.

Armed with his reliable Laser Rifle and the medical knowledge he picked up as a soldier, Larren Jax is a steadfast fighter for the rebellion.

Larren Jax from Hasslefree.

Vic is the team's dashing pilot. She is a good shot but a better pilot, assuming her fast reflexes can get her out of any trouble her smart mouth gets her in to.

Karl Drax is a reliable man to have beside you in a firefight. He is devoted to Vic, but as a big brother.

Awesome work on these! Good selection of models and nice looking paint job!

Great crew! I like the dusty pallet you've chosen, suits them very well. Big fan of the opposition too - any chance you've got a larger group of them to show?
-
Great start (assuming there's lots of the opposition side to be shown later on ;) ). What others have said, nice selection for the characters and opposition 8)
I assume we will soon be seeing some terrain for this as well? :)

Very cool choice for your group. And a very cool paint job.

Thanks.
Here is the squad:

And transport.

I will have to dig out the points, they are rubbish shots but have good armour. The squad leader has slightly better stats. I think I ended up giving them restraints to bring them up to figure points minimum.
