15mm.co.uk Fat Alien

A lot of the 15mm sci-fi offerings from 15mm.co.uk can be a bit rough, but many possess a certain charm and utility that I have come to love. The Octopods I have recently been featuring come to mind. Today I've got a great alien to show off from this same company. He fairly oozes personality and I plan to use him as a crime boss or other important NPC.

I could certainly see this guy commanding a horde of alien thugs for sure!

Ok, Who Ordered The Squid, Again?

As I finished a fourth Octopod yesterday, I thought it might be cool to photograph them with my two other painted, squid/octopus headed 15mm figures.  So behold a sextet of squid-headed menace!

Unreleased Space Knight & OOP Ral Partha Mind Flayer.

 

Before folks start asking, I finally do have a plan afoot to get the above Space Knight and his human counterpart (pictured here) released. More on that as I can share it.

Khurasan Scientist

I love Khurasan miniatures excellent Scientists pack, and this guy was my favorite among them--what character and dynamism!  Another Bob Naismith gem!

I could see this guy as the focal point of a scenario, or an objective of some kind, or as great NPC in an RPG game.

Blasters & Bulkheads 2nd ed. Cover

Ace artist Rich Yanizeski just delivered his amazing cover for Blasters & Bulkheads 2nd ed. and I could not resist showing it off here!  Check it out!

You might recognize Rich's dynamic style from art pieces in the SuperSystem and Chaos books, but I think you'll find his color work to be every bit as amazing. I know I do!

B&B 2nd should be on track for a mid to late March release via PDF and in print through Lulu.  I may do a small print run myself, but this is up in the air right now. We'll see!

Octopod Addition Makes Three

Now I've got a trio of Octopods to work with!  I've decided to just work in a number of different color garments for the various Octopods I'm painting--I just didn't see them as uniform.

Pictured next to a CMG Merc.

Next up, more Defence Force troopers!

Completed two more Khurasan Defence Force troopers yesterday, and here they are!

Scales very well with Rebel Alien Legionnaire.

Second Octopod Alien Done!

Got a second one done, and as I finish him, a very interesting scenario is coming to mind for Blasters & Bulkheads.  More on that when I have something written down! No onto the pics!

GZG Hard Suited Troops For Sale

I don't normally sell stuff via this blog, but since it is a small group of 15mm Sci-Fi troops, I thought I'd post them up here for anyone interested.

The lot contains 16 Hard Suit troopers from one of GZG's older lines. Well painted and based, and yours for $20 + shipping! 

Let me know if interested!

And thanks for visiting!

Khurasan Defence Force Troopers

I've been looking for a group of sci-fi troopers to act as Imperial Guard types for an Inquisitorial Interdiction squad. I think I have found them in Khurasan's Defence Force Troopers. Last night I did my first test paint scheme using one of my favorite colors--Medium Sea Blue from Vallejo.

Check them out!

I'll polish off a squad of these guys before too long!

Thanks for visiting!

RAFM Space Adventurer

I love 15mm figures with plenty of cool kit, and this gem from the old RAFM line has it in spades!

I could definitely see using this guy as my RPG character in any sci-fi game! He's geared up and ready to rock!

Here's a comp shot:

As always, thanks for visiting!

15mm.co.uk Octopod Seer Guard

I picked up the Octopod Seer Guard, a pack of tentacle-faced alien via Noble Knight last week.  The sculpts are pretty solid ones from 15mm.co.uk.

I got one painted so far and I quite like how he looks and scales with the other stuff I've been working on of late. It will be cool to get a small unit of 3 - 5 of these guys done.  They'll make a great alien cult, or an exotic bodyguard for some important alien diplomat.

Thanks for visiting!
