Delightfully ingenious, as ever!

But I think a wire-wool duster might not be terribly practical. lol

Just one question: Those XAIR bots - are they MEANT to be Battletech-style 1/300, or are they indeed meant to be 28 mm (I have restrained myself from ordering them, as I am not quite sure about their look for 28 mm....)?

Same with me.  Are they even 28mm?  I got the impression they were even smaller...


Great stuff, btw.  I really like the paint scheme on the 9 suns feller.

I'm not sure what they're supposed to be - they looked cool so I got a few of them.

They're on the same base as the rest - the large ones are maybe 1/25" tall.

Yeah, sure, scale does not matter so much with robots, I'm just wondering. I especially like those with the cannon on their shoulders... actually, they could all be prototypes of the humanoid Terminators....

Froggy is Hypnotoad.  I can't stop looking at your prolific work.  Where are these XAIR robots located on the web-o-tron?  I like them. 


This is my boomstick!

Great work Froggy! Though maybe you should have used the other maid for the tavern bots. The fake boobs might have given them a more android-like feel. Will yo be painting up some of the reaper cyborgs to go along with the henchmen?
