Title: Kaptain Kneemo's Detachments Assembled and ready for Launch to Venus
Post by: Alfrik on 04 January 2011, 06:30:38 AM

I slogged through getting all the final painting done to the Venus expeditionary forces for the shipboard Marines, and of course I still have to flock the bases and such, but the satisfaction of getting 5 companies and 2 heavy support walkers ready was just to much to contain any longer!

5 companies of shipboard sailors nearing basing now also, in time for the campaign kick off to boot!

 :o

You are pounding out quite an army!

Looking forward to seeing the sailors and the whole force together.

Who makes the minis for your shipboard Marines?

Good job! I have one of those walkers and wasn't quite sure what to do with it. Looks great!

I'm using Spanish American War line of figures from Old Glory for both the Marines and Sailors. The walkers are converted slightly
Uggernaut #58 The Force Unleashed Star Wars Miniatures figures.

Very impressive Alfrik! Remind me, do you have a figure for Kaptain Kneemo  yet?

Here's the great man himself between the 2 walkers. Tried to find the figure / manufacturer but gave up and snapped a quick shot instead;

I assembled Kaptains Kneemos entire Ground Forces for inspection before boarding for Launch on what is sure to be a victorious and glorius expedition to Venus, where he will establish a new grand power base!

Blue Moon Mfg, Alfrik, from the Foreign Advisers (or some such) set.

Hope they don't melt in the Venusian lava fields!
