I've been making some scatter terrain specifically for the SSZ scenarios by kitbashing various bits. I have to be mindful as most of my things in the bits box is for 28mm so it can look too big for 15mm.

Here's some of the 6 Control pods which were made from patterned plasticard, Tau gun barrels and the ever useful nail art pieces on top.



and 3 Fabricators. Somehow I made 3 earlier and then forgot about them so I made these! But the others will appear in my medical bay in the future.

These were made using spare mdf pieces, some Covid tests and guns from a Dungeons and lasers kickstarter. There is some 6mm epic ammo crates which I use as consoles and more plasticard and mdf offcuts along with a craft metal wheel.

Good to see Space Station Zero getting some play. I feel bad that I geared up for the rules, then after doing one game, determined they wouldn't work for our large, Sunday evening group. It is more set for a smaller coop or free-for-all, or solo.

Yeah its taken me longer than I hoped to get enough finished for a game. I painted all the figures but then struggled for terrain ideas. I'll mostly be playing this solo or with one other, and that was one of the main appeals. Of course I can use all the figures and terrain for other games which is great.

I'm making slow progress on the Space Station Zero board but I've managed to finish most of the base colours for the floor. First it was sprayed with a light grey spraycan and then I used an airbrush to go over all the joins between the floor panels.



It doesn't matter if some of the lines are not straight as I hope to heavily weather the floor and cover (or embrace) any imperfections.





Next I used a 0.3mm black permanent pen and marked out all the panel lines (I didn't bother with the rivets!). Then I painted the hazard stripe sections and I may add a couple more colours to areas before weathering.

My progress is still slow but I've managed to finish some of the scratchbuilt scenery for the SSZ scenarios.

Of course what sci-fi game set inside a spaceship would be complete without some nasty alien monsters! I brought these lovely figures from Khurasan, They were easy to paint with a black base coat and some drybrushing, followed by a gloss varnish.

I feel rather sorry for your li'l dude in the orange spacesuit - he's been patiently posing with every piece of terrain and then you throw a bakers dozen of slavering monsters at him!  lol
But very nice figures all the same.

The aliens look good! And yes, aliens are every bit as easy to paint as Stormtroopers are a pain in the you-know-what to paint...  lol
