I finished up some more bits and bobs:

Some Skulkers for the next  Parsecs encounter. (Cyberrats from Mortian.)



A variety selction of scumbags and villains:

A spacer from Northstar Stargrave Crew 2 plastics



A couple from Northstars Roguestar line.





A feral punk from Bad Squido.



A Merc using bits from Anvil Ind., Raging Heros and GW.



About time for an adventure me thinks.

Great work all around on those! The cyber-rats look very cool, hadn’t seen them before, either.

Thanks for the feedback.

Sandrunners for Five Parsecs (Ral Parha Europe Velocirators)



And this guy may be the start of a new crew, some kind of Clint Eastwood space western/Marshall Cob Vance type character.

I saw the head sculpt on the GW Free guild Cavalier Marshal and fell in love with it. I have been looking for somewhere to use it for a while, in the end I converted a Stargrave figure, but because the head is typical GW heroic scale compared to the more traditional Northstar 28s,  I had to chop the figure up and extend the legs to make it look right.

I'm really happy with the result, what do you guys think?

Looks perfect! People who can chop figures up and make them taller or shorter always amaze me. I feel lucky to be able to put a new weapon in a hand...  lol

Impressive body of work.  Everything is excellent but I'm particularly impressed with the paint on the Sandrunners.

Heh, I recognize that torso on your pink haired mini.  I am painting up my own mini with exactly that part for his torso.  :-)
