The first painted examples of some of the masters (Ian Mountain is still working upon the conversions but I hope to have these shortly).

The paint scheme isn't the one i'll be using for my own project, but shows the usefulness of a generic range of space-opera/sci-fi figures (and seemed quite appropriate for the Fenris Games (30mm) bases I sent Paul)



Painted by Paul Sanderson (thanks again!)

Oooh!
They look very nice!

And pretty much how I envisaged them looking all coloured-in and stuff.

Looking good. I hear "apology accepted Captain Needa" when I look at the officer! I hope to purchase some of these fellows. :)

Like I say, my next terrain project is something slightly different, but a space station the size of a small moon is tempting now....

Can I get on board for some Garrison Troopers?
Maybe some future ninjas with laser swords??
A bear with a crossbow? And scoundrels, lots of scoundrels...  :D
Yearly painting challenges only show me how useless I am at painting...

Ian is currently working upon the conversions, so once they are ready I will get the production moulds made, and get everything cast up in one go 26 figures means two moulds-worth.

Needless to say, will post up photos of the conversions when ready - essentially they are to flesh out the first two forces "garrison" and "assault" before I move on to the next couple of troop types, which will have move of a hazmat vibe.....  :D

Looking smart mate. I'm late to the party but the Garrison troops and Officer would be useful if there are some spares...

The first painted example of one of the "assault troopers" (sculpted by Kev White, painted by Paul Sanderson). This is a master casting - Ian Mountain is currently working upon some conversions for me.  Can't really see from this angle, but his left hand is holding a knife.



Needless to say I am really chuffed with how this whole project if progressing.

 :D
