Irregular Star Marines for Fireteam Andromeda
« on: 24 March 2013, 05:29:39 PM »
Hi there,

I've painted up some Irregular Star Marines in a winter scheme and made some custom terrain for them as well.

I'm going to use them for FIRETEAM ANDROMEDA

I hope you will go visit my blog and have a look.



I'm also in the process of making a downed spaceship:



Here's a link to my blog where you can see more:

All the best!

Was the the starting point/ basic shape for the spaceship part of a toy gun before it crash-landed?

No. A water pistol.

Those Irregular miniatures never cease to amaze me.  They look so bad as bare metal and so good once painted.  You did a bang up job with those.

The tumbleweeds a' rollin' over my thread



Managed to do a bit more work on the ship. Still needs more snow flock-- just not sure how to apply it yet.

Oh. yeah and I managed the robot and so on as well.

LIttle or no idea where it came from. But I think most water pistols look ready to convert in to sci-fi fighters and ships.  lol

Innovative use of a water pistol!

What are you using for the snow?

Quite literally  8)

It is as with the case of the monkeys - sooner or later it had to happen.  ;)

Methamphetamine,... I mean Games Workshop snowflock (similar price pr gramme I think, but I'm no expert).

I mix this with glass powder (so do the meth heads I think! Or is that speed freaks? No similarities otherwise though) to give a sparkling vista to the snow (the reasons for adding it to other substances elude me).

The glass is from NOCH and I bought it 7 years ago, so it might not be available anymore. Maybe the methamphetine freaks have bought it all along with all the cold medicine.  lol

Crazy, crazy Viking  :D

How about a bit of 'scorched' snow around the downed ship or a bit more detritus?

cheers
