Dr. Mathias's Into Space! Retro Sci Fi thread - Hydra Space Pirates

[Dr Mathias]

I finished up a few Hydra Miniatures 'Retro Raygun' figures today, and because there will be some more figures from this genre coming down the pipe in the foreseeable future, I figured I'd better go ahead and make an 'ongoing thread' in the popular LAF manner.

First up is the Empress Xenovia and her Alpha Panther:



Along with some Zenithians. Hydra only has three of this faction available right now. They were pretty fun to paint.





Plus a couple images from a ways back, that I don't recall posting here on LAF:





Next up will be some robots (after a bit of Darkest Africa, in a different thread of course )

That looks brilliant!  The aliens look just the bad guy from Major Matt Mason!  One of my fave childhood toys!

[Elbows]

Has a very Flash Gordon feel to me...love the terrain.

[OSHIROmodels]

Lovely work Matt 

The terrain has got the right sort of vibe as well 

cheers

Beautiful colours - the transitions on that panther; sublime.

Beautiful! I'm a sucker for that retro sci-fi rayguns and rocket ships vibe. The first pic has had me heading off to track down the Alpha Panther. I need that model

[majorsmith]

Really nice figures! The back drops are really cool also

[The Dozing Dragon]

Wow! I have been resisting these for so long.....

[Orctrader]

Look great.

[Supercollider]

Excellent pics and PJs, looking forward to seeing more!

[NurgleHH]

Pictures for the next Number One in the LPL. Great.

[Gibby]

Utterly brilliant! Love them!

[Dr. The Viking]

Stunning and inspirational!

I am taken by the scenery you've used. I think the glass structures are an absolutely smashing idea.

[The_Beast]

Crikies, Matt, those are awesome!

I went to Hydra's site, and see he had the good sense to put your images up right away.

I never noticed the 'panther' before; impressive fig made wonderful by your brush, of course, but does add greatly to the terror of the cruel 'ladies.'
