Great painting and a super interesting group of miniatures

[Raedwald]

This whole thread is spectacular 

What a superb selection of minis, and the painting is beautiful! 

[OSHIROmodels]

Splendid additions 

[Grumpy Gnome]

So much to love in this thread, the Core Space figures in particular caught my eye.

[Major_Gilbear]

Wow, lovely painting as always! I particularly like these two:

Old school fighter from I don't remember which line, sold now by Excalibur minis I think.




Old Alpha forge cyborg

The top lady looks like a Werner Klocke sculpt, and I think I recall the lower cyborg being sold by Mega Minis at some point?

I always think it's such a shame that these old models disappear from sale when the company making them closes.

A thread that keeps on giving! As always, brilliant painting and a fantastic source of inspiration.

Alpha Forge was one of my favorites from that era.

Quirky and cool.

Your painting is excellent.

Thanks for the feedback folks.

Yep, totally agree, it's always sad when great sculpts disappear.

Yes, I remember your enthusiasm for the line back in the days I used to frequent the CMON forums, there were some real gems in there. I think I've got a couple of demobots stashed away somewhere.

Looks like if you are in the US, you can still get some of the minis - in terms of relevence you can still get the cyborg mini hubbabubba painted and shown on this thread.

Thanks! 

But $25 + import taxes to the UK for that one figure... Oof! 

[FramFramson]

ooof what an update! Wild!

[hubbabubba]

Thanks for the comments.

A few more bits, I'm trying to make an effort to stay up to date, we'll see how long it lasts.

Three neerdowells from Zombicide invader:







These mercenary/veteran types from the RogueStars line, by Mark Copplestone. I was excited about the Roguestars line, but to be honest I was pretty disappointed with the quality of the figs. At first I thought it was the casting, but when I recieved some replacements I saw that they were just pretty crude sculpts. They might have been up to scratch 30 years ago, but nowadays they seem sloppy. Anyway salvaged them and did a couple of head swaps for variation.

[Earther]

Really liking the latest additions. The head-swaps on the Rogue Stars chaps look fantastic! 

[Malamute]

I agree, great conversions, lovely paintwork.
