White dragon 15mm sci fi - Fire team 2 painted.

[nic-e]

Let me clarify that title.
I like 15mm. I'm used to 15mm, Hell, i even sculpt 15mm.

So when i say these are small, Believe me they are SMALL!!!

Anyway....
I have admired white dragons stuff for a while and whilst working at salute i dutifully abandoned my post to drop £50 on a bag full of micro scale goodness.
I have 15 troopers of various types, 4 heavy armoured chaps and one lovely big mech with a rail rifle.
(i also picked up one of the big hab block terrain pieces.)

My plan is to get these guys painted up and hopefully play a couple of small games of warpath firefight with them once done.







As always, all C&C is welcome! I hope to get these done as they really are too pretty to languish in my to do pile!

Got some shots with them alongside other manufacturers' figs so we can get an idea of just how small they are?

Very well!

HEre they are next too two of my own sculpts, which are exactly 1:100 scale , and two ral partha demonworld 15mm figures, which vary in height a bit so i went with the tallest and smallest i had on the shelf.

As if we doubted you...

Small, but damn pretty!

Looking forward to some battle images!

Looking good! Small but very pretty and loaded with detail. I've just ordered some of the 'wounded' troopers and the two carrying comrades are exquisite. I'll be watching this space...

They might tempt me back to scifi skirmish.

I'd be tempted too if i had ever given up...

I put together the mech just to get a feel of it.

The infantry look good, but that mech is nice!

Is that a rail gun?

It is according to the packaging.

painted up the squad leader and did some batch colour work on the other members of the squad.
Also did some work on the bases , nothing major since i want them on the table and not to languish in my paint pile.

[Skrapwelder]

Very nice.

Very, Nice!!!

You are right.  They are very small but beautifully sculpted and cast well.

Consider me subscribed

Gnomes in space small?

Now I find 3mm infantry small and challenging to paint.  As much as what I do can be called painting.  Worth it but challenging.

[Grumbledook]

Very nicely painted figures and you've weathered and highlighted them beautifully.

I'm regretting not picking up a few at Salute, but it was good to see the models in real life and they look just as good as they do on their website. Their buildings are also very cool.

Cheers chaps!
I started work on the base for the proteus mech last night. I want to go for an overgrown city ruin look.
I also finished the actual painting on the squad (minus a couple of post varnish highlights.) and can start basing them before moving on to the next squad.

The smallness continues.
I have just finished up the bases of the first 6 man fire team.


And here they all are together!



(you'll have to excuse the slowly degrading photo quality, there isn't enough light in the universe to satisfy my phone camera, and the university aren't gonna let me use the 5k to snap some miniatures.


I'm now looking at what sort of table I want to build for these guys.I have a few ideas for some nice space port style terrain.
Also looking for any rules suggestions for a nice handful sized firefight game.
I'm thinking the new warpath firefight rules, rogue stars or double tap from one hour wargames. I also considered laserburn.
I'd appreciate any help on the subject.
