MaaX's general Sci-Fi painting log - 28mm
« on: March 20, 2023, 06:00:35 PM »
Starting off with two Hasslefree minis.

Larran Jax - a "trader" armed with modified Shard rifle





Corporal Thoran - armed with the KW10DU/F ‘Shard’ Assault Rifle, and outfitted in the lightweight ‘Halcon class’ scout armour and wearing the sensor heavy ‘Hormiga’ helmet





They will be part of my Stargrave team and other Sci-Fi skirmish games.

Those two are extraordinary - you would think you are looking at painted 54mm figures !

I like these.  The camo looks really odd but in a good way.  The style is unusual but interesting too.  Nice work.

 Nice job! The coloured stripes and panels on the white armour look sharp.

Thank you!
I wanted something to break the flat white so I added some orange here and there.

Given the trouble I have with decals, that's probably even more impressive than if it had been freehand lol

Good work with the white as well. It's a colour that I try to avoid, as I find it nothing but trouble

Thanks!  :)
Same, I try to avoid black and white colors as they are difficult to shade.
With this team I wanted to achieve a clean look so went with white (which is actually a very light grey) with minimal battle damage.

Excellent job on those! I especially like how the helmet visor turned out - did you use some of the fancy ‘interference’ paints to get that reflexive effect? It certainly looks good.
