Yeah! I will get the following vehicles for my selection:







For a paint scheme I am going for a less garish scheme. First, these colors don't fit in with my style and second NO WAY I have the skills to do such airbrushing. And with a more 'regular' scheme these will also fit in better with my Antenociti vehicles.

Great stuff as always. I do think though that the presented paint schemes would look more at home on a Dodgem car. So slightly toned down painting wouldn't go amiss, though of course up to your usual standard ;)

So are these now available? I know the kickstarter was a flop.
So many projects..... so little time.......

Woah, some quick questions with some long answers incoming :P


Sorry, I get excited when I see airbrush use on a mini!  ;D Its a technique that still evades my solid grasp despite owning several different airbrushs for over 20 years. I find I agree with your second point, as it defines my problems with airbrushing minis. It has a nice effect, seems to speed the process, but there are still loads of details to be added in with a regular brush afterwards.
Thanks for the info on the Citadel Lahmia Medium, this is the first Ive heard of this (newsletter must not have fit under my rock) and I will try that out for sure. I also use the washes alot and Ive been trying out different ones; Army Painter being one that I like alot also.

Update! All your rebasing is belong to us

Another update, but this one was a simple one. Some weeks ago I scrounged through my old collection to see what painted stuff I have which I can use for Cyberpunk. I showed you the miniatures when they were WIP, but the first four are now done:

Natascha Nixon


Sarah Deville


Mr. Long


Corporate Hacker


Now the first three models are by Excalibur Miniatures for the Fearless range. Not only is Fearless a really cool game, it has many great models. Not the finest in sculpting, but they ooze character. Natascha Nixon is an old one...about 15 years old I guess? I had fun with the stockings, but with a Micron Pigma Pen they were very easy to do. Sarah Deville is some kind of paramilitary chick and although her face isn't sculpted well, she was fun to paint. Mr. Long was a musthave and one of the greatest Joker sculpts you can get IMO.
Finally, the corporate hacker...she is by Copplestone Castings. Like always with Copplestones she was terrific and very easy to paint.

For the painting I rebased them (and added some small plastic model bottles) and repainted the guns. Finally I touched up the paintjobs here and there but kept it to a minimum to stay true to the originals.

@Mason: cheers mate! Mr. Long is by Excalibur Miniatures...a really weird but extremely fun range with some fantastic sculpts:

Update!
Yes! I finally finished the Orrus Spyrer. He's the League's powerhouse: a cybersoldier jacked into a suit of powered armour. The Cyberspace jack gives him heightened reflexes and a perfect overview of the local area and it allows him to fire his rapid firing gauntlet guns at the speed of thought.
A great oldskool miniature with lots of detail. I went for dark grey/black armor and this always takes me a long time to get done. But with the help of my airbrush the first colors went fast. But the details took a lot of time to get right. I used orange and blue as my main colors to make him pop a bit more.
The base was done with another clear bottle (Exo cola!) and an old bloody rag (a piece of toilet paper dipped into PVA+water).




Next up is the League's playboy! A guy in a baby blue suit...how cute...but it's wrong!
