Malebolgia's Cybertronic (UPDATE Jan 2: Stuff assembled)

[Malebolgia]

Since the Warzone Kickstarter is nearing completion, I think I will receive my miniatures soon. So time to work on the color scheme and the first miniatures. I am starting with the proxies I am using for Chasseurs. I just don't like the concept and execution of the official Chasseurs at all, so I wanted to try something different. I used 'Akula's' Assault soldiers for his generic space opera range. Fantastic miniatures and with the right headswap perfect for what I had in mind. I used Pig Iron Production heads to make them faceless and thus a bit colder. For colors I first wanted to do my Cybertronic in the colors of the Space Jockey from Aliens, but in the end went with my favorite color: P3 Coal Black. So the undersuit is Coal Black with a lighter blue for the plates. The complementary orange was added to make him pop more. Same goes for the base. Went for a brown base to get a good contrast with the blue. So far I'm happy with it, so I'll continue with the other Chasseurs. Hopefully they're done before I receive my order, so I can get down on them ASAP

looks bloody marvellous!

 

Almost didn't recognise my own mini with that paint job, but works really well.

[Commander Vyper]

Nice pig iron helmet use, and the minis quite nice too. 

[Giger]

Great use of the miniture and the paint job is very nice.

Nice work!
The contrasting colors really make the mini pop!

Those unusual colours REALLY work together! Love the blending!

Do you think you'll manage to do that for ALL the troops?

[cheetor]

Thats great.  A force of those guys will look fantastic 

[Malebolgia]

Cheers guys!

Jup, that's the idea! Will take ages, but looking forwards to it

That is a very cool mod and paint scheme. Can't figure out a way to steal it just yet, tho.

[Laughing Ferret]

Very cool, love those colors

[beefcake]

That's very nice. Now to look at akulas store

[sundayhero]

Really cool, just not a fan of these big rounded bases

And two more Chasseurs finished! This time also a Plasma Rifle.




The Plasma Rifle is from the Wargames Factory Shock Troopers and I like the weird high tech look it has.
I changed the painting on the pistol and I like the new look a lot more than the light grey on the first one. In the end I will change the painting on the first one's gun...someday .
After painting I found out I highlighted the armor plates on #2 and #3 way more, but the difference is acceptable IMO.
And yes, the varnish on #3's visor cracked . Ah well, you don't see it during games.

Here's a group shot of the first three together.

Excellent work, specially using that Wargames Factory rifle like that.
