So - I recently finished painting a couple of miniatures more. This time it's a more loose collection of miniatures as I'm trying to work out some color schemes and what miniatures to use for a couple of platoons. Anyway, on to the picture show.


EM4's Plastic troopers, sculpted by Bob Naismith I believe and I'm consideirng buying enough for a small platoon. They're not great miniatures, but they do look the part once painted up


Some assorted spacelane traders. From left to right - Spacelords Civilian, Black Hat (Cobalt-1) Merchant, Eldar Trader (GW)


And a really nice Ar-man from the Cobalt-1 line of miniatures from Black-Hat

I really like the space orks tone skin, very original, and well executed.

The em4 troopers looks pretty good, actually. I will probably buy some for my own scifi setup, they will do a great scifi police/riot unit.

Cheers everyone for the likes and comments on this thread. As I said, it definitely makes it all worthwile :)

Yes you've missed it ;) They're Iron Brotherhood miniatures from Micro Art Studios and they are rather nice, if a bit crude.

I painted up these two Rogue Trader classics to get my mojo back as I'm currently slavering away on a project for this years Horisont event in Denmark. Oh and I got a new camera, which hopefully shows otherwise it would've been a bit of a waste of money :D

Torben, this thread is pure awesome! I don't venture onto the Future Wars board much, but this have made it worthwhile suffering through numerous Colon Aliens threads.

When my wife questions why there have been an influx in jiffybags in the post, I'll point to this thread and say "He made me do it!"...

How did things pan out with the rules, btw? I'm in the market for a fun, easy and open-ended rule set.

Haha! Cheers! I don't quite know how I feel about being a scape goat for your miniature purchases, but hey, the more the merrier! ;)

I am still working on the rules - had to alter a lot of things, a couple of rewrites and thrashed drafts but soon (at Horisont 5 actually) I'll have a one-off, bareboned and basic edition of the rules that I'll distribute at the con and freely on the internet as well... so, watch this thread ;)
