Elbow's Scrapheap (Notcromunda) Project

Found a couple of pictures from the con.

Looks great! I hope the games went well...

Pretty good.  The players seemed to have fun (though I had a couple quiet stoic types who I couldn't read!).  It's a tough one to run at cons, because I had to trim down a lot of the rules (or just not mention them) to make it playable.

I think that's a critique of all my games - most are just a bit too crunchy (really) for convention play!  But feedback was good, and I had some return players, so that's always a good sign.

Been busy actually working on the rules (should be released in a month or two), but I painted up a few models I've had sitting on my desk forever.

Interesting figs those two bounty hunters, are they printed?

I really, really like that table set up, it looks massively playable, as well as aethetically very cool, awesome.

Yep both printed from ResinMunitorum, an Etsy seller who prints really nice stuff (they have a normal site too I believe).  Almost all of my 3D printed minis in this thread are from them off the top of my head.

The knock-off Dredd isn't my favourite..I should have given him cooler weapons (they're both kits that ship with a bunch of options).

PS: Thanks.  I love the two table options I have for the game at the moment.  I'm a big fan of "three ways to get there" concept in building tables.  I like having options, and I like games that let you move far enough to "use" the whole table, . It was one of my biggest motivations when starting to design games - no point in having a cool table, if you move 6" a turn and the game lasts four turns.

Another poor picture of a new model.  Another 3D print.  This time, a...techno-vampire?

He's an evil looking piece of work isn't he?

Nice colour choices Elbows

This time, a...techno-vampire?

Vlad the Installer?
Nice!

[OSHIROmodels]

Cool

Vlad the Installer?
Nice!

That would explain him having two cybernetic arms.  Times must be tough as a vampire when everyone is full of infected/radioactive blood.  He just really sucks as an installer.

I rescued another five Space Marine scouts from 2nd edition.  These guys'll be used in conjunction with my other five to do another Scrapheap faction.  They'll also potentially serve in a 2nd edition "Marines vs. Tyranids" project my buddies are talking about (it'll never happen).



I love metal Space Marine scouts.  Sadly I painted up 15 or more a few years ago...then sold them when I quit collecting marines.  Only to buy another 20 or so...and start the process all over.  The sculpts are just wonderful 90's Warhammer, in a good way.

PS: whoops, guess I never posted the original five rescues on here either.  I'm leaning toward using these models as the "law" element in the game.



As usual all my Space Marine scouts arrived in conditions like this:

nice stuff! always amazing to me, how a different color palett can make a huge difference on how I perceive miniatures. the muted colors work really nice and make them look a lot less cartoonish than the sculpt would otherwise suggest!

As my buddy put it the other day "Yeah, well...you use a lot of browns!" (after I joked that all he uses is Emerald Green and Royal Blue when painting his various armies).
