A couple of Grogans, a pair of drones and a duo of Yyndij.

A rebel heavy weapon team and a Chovar Psychic. The Chovar can double up as some sort of Tyranid construct and has taken part in some Lovecraftian Pulp gaming too.

Last few Rebs. The medic is my favourite, none combatant minis are always welcome for scenarios and stuff like that. I've never used him in a game of Deadzone.

Nice work :)

One thing that your pics don't show is just how tiny and spindly some of those Rebs miniatures are. It was a surprise to me just how fragile some of them are.

At some point I must sort mine out but I am a bit apprehensive about damaging them... so cudos to you for getting through that and making something great :)

Yup, there are a few bent and broken gun barrels, fingers and blades on them, but the bodies and limbs were sturdy enough. Glad you like them.

Haven't made as much progress as intended on my Sci-fi projects, this Abomination from Fenris is the only thing I've finished in ages. Its the kind of miniature that could go into a number of settings from sci-fi to fantasy to Pulp and horror. I'll probably use it for all of those at some point. For some reason, whenever I look at this figure I imagine it saying something like 'Is it bad? I can't look, its bad right?'

Very nice.

I especially liked the Terminators.

Finally got my Genestealer Patriarch finished. Its obviously a better model than the original in a technical sense, but it doesn't have the same character and charm. The Old Patriarch sat on his throne, familiars by his side, was a great mini that really set the imagination afire. Oh well, things change.

I've been distracted painting Anglo Danes but know I'm back on Sci-Fi. I'm putting an Enforcer force together for Warpath: Firefight. Not sure if I will go for the urban camo pattern on the entire force but I like how these have turned out; apart from the varnish mishap at the end (you will see that three of the squad are significantly paler than they should be; never varnish in low light conditions!)

A dramatic, and somewhat unlikely pose!

Some really great minis here, nice to see what can be done with these figures. Those shoulder transfers on the latest enforcers are oooooold school, man! They're like the first transfer set I ever dealt with all those years ago! I like that ;)

Cheers. I can't believe the transfers still worked. I wish I hadn't ruined 3 of the Peacekeepers by over varnishing them. They still look ok, just washed out.
