Well, there are never too many sci-fi miniatures, really!?

Let's start with some agressive apes of strict nationalistic behavior. Well, in 2008 they were ordinary AT-43 Karmans, given to me by a friend, but hard times change everybody and not in the best possible way  ;)

Nice conversions and paintjobs! 8)

They're a bit like the 'real' orks (in space), aren't they? You should try and find matching clear plastic domes to fit on their suits' rings.

keep them coming! :D
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

I was looking at doing something similar with my spare GW Bret monk myself! I'm now convinced it can work :) ta!

Bretons are perfect subject for sci-fi (or, better, sci-fantasy) conversions! They have their own construction difficulties, but usually it is not much of a problem.

Cool conversions, and I really like that painting style of yours...It gives it a very cool animated feel.

Glad to hear that ))

So, another former bretonian, now lesser tech-brother Gracian Reparatus. Broken vacuum-cleaners and gas ovens are barely a threat to this guy!

Absolutely gorgeous layering.

Is the last guy a Ramshackle Games miniature?

No, he was a mere Games Workshop peasant with a Techmarine axe, who accidentaly fell into a pit full of wild guitar strings  :D

All his friends and relatives are extinct... his bad mood is unsurprising.

What he said.  The Squat is really great, that bluish green with red fuel tanks is perfect.
