Space pirates







Been a while since I posted anything, but Ive been busy with my house, and painting various miniatures but not seeming to finish anything. I finished basing these Chronoscope figures today and figured I might as well get them up here. Generally nice sculpts, though the girl has massive lips, and the cyborgs fist isnt molded correctly...And they took two months to arrive from Reaper US....

EM4 Merc's


Havent been posting on here for a while due to my computer dieing on me, and having to work extremely long hours 6 days a week.
Anyhow, I placed an order with em4 Miniatures the other week and decided to try out thier range of pre painted mini's...yes I know, pre painted, yuck. But this was the only way to get hold of these sculpts that on the website looked decent enough for the space pirates project I have planned.
For £12 you get five metal (not plastic unlike some companys) Bob Olley mini's and 4 12 sided dice, in a nice window box. The problem with the packaging however is that instead of foam, they use plastic, the crappy soft kind you get when you buy an ipod or something, as a result, the slots werent big enough for two of the miniatures (M16 and radio guy) as a result the thin parts were pretty bent.
The paint jobs themselves werent to bad, much better than say, Heroclixs, but the faces could have used a little work. They also required to be based, though they came with 5 slotta bases. A touch up with some washes and they were ready to go.
All in all, not a bad little set for some ready made henchmen.

Salvage Crew

My salvage crew I put together for sci-fi skirmish games. The crew of the SS Betty Sue from left to right starting with the front row. "The Major" Dallas McClaine, Ellie Six, Arnuld, Captian Sonja (also known as Her Royal Intergalatic Highness Crown Princess Sonja Quamar of the Degarian Imperium.), Dolph, Kaylee, a random crew member, Mach, The Professor, the S-6 droid and finally Lars.


And one of thier transports, The Ram.


The miniatures come from a number of ranges, and just show what you can put together when you set your mind to it. Companys use include, EM4, Privateer Press, Maow Miniatures, Foundry, Games Workshop, Hasslefree and Heresy. The transport comes from Ramshackle.

The droid is the special Salute 2010 limited miniature.
