Sci-fi figures at random

[Dubbya]

Hi all, I'm painting some of my collection at (mostly) random. I say that, because I change plans so often! Hope you like...

Orks today!

[OSHIROmodels]

I like them 

[DivisMal]

The two on the flanks are from Space Crusade (aka SpaceQuest), right?
Painted they fit in quite well with modern GW stuff. I’m surprised how good. Nice!

[Major_Gilbear]

Very nice! I really like those old Space Crusade Orks too.

Can I make a small suggestion? Using the same teal you used for the Orks' lips, I'd paint a little bit of that on the tongues of the moon icons on the SC Ork back icons too.

Thanks all!

They are! I have a mix of all "eras" of ork in the army!

Ooh, yes I might. These are speedpaint throwaway models so I've cut many corners - I reckon I'll paint the tongues now.

Epic models painted all as one army, used as generic sci fi. Bases are left really basic, I'm not bothering to fill in since I just wanted some stuff finished!

[Hobgoblin]

Great work on those orks!

[Ragsta]

Lovely efforts here! I also rather like that mush mash if epic units in a unifying scheme.

[Dubbya]

Thanks again! Today some 2nd edition 40k fun.

[Major_Gilbear]

Very nice - I actually like your grenade better than the original axe! 

[DivisMal]

The ork is a brilliant, yet small conversion. I love it! It’s indeed better than the original!

[Dubbya]

Thanks again! Grenade/stikkbomb was a test, ones I made later are a little better.

Anyway, more recent!

Ork with grenade is a lovely conversion!

My first prmaris marine. I actually like them, don't even hate the "lore", but they make most models opposing them look ridiculous. I do live the assault marine versions though, so might get some.

Miniature painting is all about nostalgia for me anyway, so I don't mind smaller, exaggerated proportions models anyway.
