These are some great minis! I picked up a bunch of O scale cows and stuff this weekend and will be adding them to my collection. http://www.armchairgeneral1.blogspot.com/2012/03/farm-yard-animals.html

Where did you get the ceph tripods and the ceph minis? They are fantastic! That giant robot too! It reminds me of Mars attacks. Your stuff looks great man!

Love the kitchen-bowl saucer.  lol


I joined my gun with pirate swords, and sailed the seas of cyberspace.

Thanks.

The cephalopods aliens are from Black Cat Bases :

They also have other suitable miniatures : the Titanians :

The tripods are Monsterpocalypse miniatures (just partly repainted). The Giant robot is also a Monsterpocalypse miniature converted and repainted.

Love the kitchen-bowl saucer.  lol

I have a UFO kit but it was too large for the game so I bought this bowl for 1.50 €...I don't even have to paint it  ;D

Love the 'Clay Eaters', love to see a game report for something wargamed with these minis - it must be whacked and pretty good fun. Hope there is fried chicken under them alien hood I mean bowl.

Your minis do indeed look very good! Here's an AAR from my St. Patrick's Day game of It Came From Beyond the Still. We are excited to hear how your games fare!

Thanks for the comments. More miniatures are in the pipeline (buildings, vehicles, kids, cultists and more). Here are the game counters : livestock and females in distress (Aliens like abducting both).

The livestock is Pegasus Hobies 1/48 farm animals and the females are O scale train figures (speed repainted).

Nice additions. I can't believe how nice O scale females look with some nice paint on them.  :-*

These are ugly miniatures, simple sculpture, a lot of flash but cheap and great as pawns for many games.
