Are those Martians based on the seldom seen ones in the old TV adaptation of Ray Bradbury's Martian Chronicles?

 I think that series was my first introduction to sci fi that wasn't optimistic. It has a lot to answer for.

first thing I thought of too! All these models are now added to my wish list, they are lovely.

Certains, an homage, but can't be exact, or we would have a Rock Hudson settler.  lol

Did anyone pop up with a comparison of scales between the inestimable Mr. Murch's sculpts and Retro Raygun? I've a friend absolutely mad about the former, but I lost my own of the latter some time ago.  :'(

Admittedly silly wish: alternate sculpts of some civvies, either with or without drawn weapons...

Terrific. In time for Christmas!

Just in case you (or anybody else in ol' Blighty) haven't seen, the full set is up for pre-order on Northstar now, will go into production when 20 orders have been received. Massive discount as well, worked it out to be $3 Aussie per model, fantastic deal.

Sitting at 12 orders last I checked, so shouldn't be far away!

Lovely work.

I know it's a minor thing, but I also really like the creative way you've made the bases.

Once again, very nice, and a real inspiration to improve my figure painting: those clothing textures look fantastic.
