[15mm] Ockman's Sci-fi, update 240203: Why 15mm gaming is best

[DivisMal]

I am still amazed by those awesome models! Very nice squad and background. And the most important thing is that your son is enjoying it, too. I’d love to play on such nice boards!

Hi Ockman, glad to see you back and gaming.  I always look forward to your updates.

When he was home from school due to illness, we even did the same thing as last year:

I think I see a pattern developing here.

Gald to see all is going well and everyone is having fun. Short moves can suck just as much as a long move, on the adults that is. Glad to see you back Ockman!

[Ockman]

Thanks, friends!

It's nice to be back, can't believe I haven't posted in the thread for almost a year! Still, I have some problems with everything being stashed in the basement (or at least most of my stuff). But I have made a little setup with paints and some minis, and I brought up the Spaceport tiles I was gifted by Spacejacker.

Glad all is well. The hobby can always wait so long as you and yours are happy.

Those militia figures look lovely, great painting! Khurusan sculpts? How was the clean up, I have no experience with 15mm.

Thanks, Ragsta! They are from Khurasan Miniatures, very little flash and moldlines, very easy to paint.

Thanks, mate!

While the figures look lovely it is th terrain that really catches my eye.
Those little scenic set-ups look fantastic!

Agreed.  I admire anyone who can make 15mm terrain and make it look this good.  I love it.

Sorry @ockman for slightly derailing this thread, but @caciquecaribe: Dan, after reading all your threads here and at TMP I‘d love to see your collection!

[Cacique Caribe]

Lol.  I still have tons of photos to upload on my Flickr account.

Thank you, Mason. I love that 15mm terrain only takes 1/8 the space of 28mm terrain. That's the only reason I've got so many different sets of terrain.

This set was gifted to me from 15mm hero Spacejacker (who had to give it away or bin it when he moved to the other side of the world). It's an amazing set and I need to build some scatter terrain to make it more inhabited.

Agreed.  I admire anyone who can make 15mm terrain and make it look this good.  I love it.

Thanks Dan! Looked at the minis you suggested and they looked enticing. I've got to reduce my lead mountain a bit before I buy new stuff!
