Thanks for the information. I'm always looking for new techniques, and I like the way those look.


One miniature is too many, and a thousand are not enough...

Thank you all for the suggestions, much obliged. I haven't decided yet.

At the moment, I'm extremely frustrated by the lack of appropriate terrain. Really, the current selection of science fiction terrain in 28mm is -shockingly- bad, and I don't really have the skill/time/desire to build it myself. Unfortunate, as it could really take the wind out of any potential project. Wish I'd known about how bad things were before I ordered so many miniatures!

*sigh*

SF terrain is usually easier as the historical one

I was thinking about one of the Bound Demons / Demon Hosts from the 40k Inquisitor range.

Off world colony buildings and/or starship interiors. Neither of which is at my current skill/time level. Writing a dissertation. No time for scratchbuilding.

Don't worry about it - I'm sure your victims won't mind.
I have a cunning plan... as cunning as a fox who's just been appointed Professor of Cunning at Oxford University.

Oh, I'd have more victims, but it seems someone has bought every code for Atomic cafe produced by Brigade Games, so I find myself with fewer means with which to victimize....;)

I'd propose World Works. They've both starship and colony scenery, although I can't say how much work it'll be to cut,fold and glue the paper...
You'd save the time painting them, though...

Late to the game here, Doc, sorry, but if you're after something that looks like it has grown out of a computer, maybe this one (CORE, central picture) from Pulp City would work for you?

Maybe add some (techno)tentacles yourself if the mood takes you...?
