Title: Judge Dredd and the Stellar Rogue Bandits of the Marsh (there will be tanks)
Post by: Vanvlak on 27 November 2016, 03:36:20 PM
The Warlord sale started this.
I am going to make a very particular setting in a very specific Mega City 1 setting.
Here's the first two models - a small landing pad and an Alien.

Closer look at the alien:

I am not going to be over-canon in this project, but Dredd did encounter an Alien, so I'm actually not starting too widely away from target.

Heheh, I have those comics in my collection so I'm eager to see you project coming along. He fought against both Aliens and Predators

Title: Re: Dreddful project - re-imagined vehicles 3/12
Post by: Vanvlak on 03 December 2016, 03:00:06 PM
So now I need aliens besides predators - oh hang on, genestealers....?

Anyway - update with vehicle WIPs.
These are re-imagined because they're just not available, and I don't have the time and probably the skill to reproduce vehicles from the comics.

A floodlight drone - using 40K SM flier bits and some other stuff.

The surveillance judges just happen to use a double-headed eagle, see, to have more eyes ...

A redesigned Blitzspear -  not because I can do better than the artists, but because it's what I can manage! I left part of it smooth as it's part-organic - er....

The return of Father Earth's minions - or should I say seedlings from his dispersed seeds....

And who needs Kleggs when you have a real croc. Pity it can't line dance.

Spot of slight rebranding of the thread to regroup all my scifi (post WWWII, that is) as well as my bandits of the marsh and Frostgrave in one package.
Hope to get some stuff done in this recess - currently trying to finish just one single tiny model to round off a Rogue Stars band.

If you need aliens, there are always these:

I'm looking forward to seeing how things progress :)

Off to a great start! That drone looks ace, more of them in the pipeline?

Looks like you've got the start of a nice project!  :)

Not in that same exact shape, as that was based on some extra bits from a GW marine flier.

@Argonor - thanks.

The premise is the old Chinese novel bandits of the marsh - I had bought a terrain mat for this, and will have buildings and structures on pylons and some floating stuff as well. Some of the buildings will be historical - and usable for a proper bandits of the marsh style scenario; but these will be blended into sci fi platforms as well.

Rules - not really bothering much, but the settings would fit Judge Dredd, Rogue Stars, Necromunda and any skirmishy style stuff. I might also use the non-sf parts for Frostgrave (and why not, Mordheim) too; Ronin for the stricter bandits of the marsh setting; and why not - IHMN and Pulp Alley could be squeezed in too.  :D
