Manths!

Captain's Blog Stardate 201208.08

I had ordered Rebel Mini's Manths before going on vacation for a week. I finished them up last night. I altered some of them to have different poses. I gave some of them more pistol weapons, a couple with tricorders, and a couple more with nothing in their hands.

I am still working on my shuttles, I just took a break to paint something up real quick and because I could not resist these minis.

Klingon and Romulan shuttles WIP II

Captain's Blog Stardate 201207.27

I have been slowly working on my Klingon and Romulan shuttles. I used tape to hold down the Romulan engines for these pictures.

I have the main parts down on each shuttle, now I need to add detail to make them look the part.










On a side note I ordered some of Rebel Minis Manths today. I can't wait to get them in and paint them up.

Triterrorpods

Klingon Hunting Party:



The hunting party is ambushed from behind by the Triterrorpods:







The Triterropod was designed for me by Richard Smith (Space Cow). I made some resin cast of the green. The original idea was to have them included in my next master mold, but I am not sure if I will have room. I am currently trying to work up something to have these produced in resin until I have a chance to get them produced in metal.

My cast were ending up with tiny bubbles. I am not an expert, but I think that my resin mix wasn't thin enough to fill the mold correctly. To fix this problem, I used Games Worshop's Liquid Green Stuff. It isn't exactly Scotty in a can, but it does work some small miracles and I am happy with the purchase. I normally fill in tiny gaps/holes with superglue and baking soda, but since this is a small miniature the liquid green stuff was more ideal.

15mm Andorians

Captain's Blog Stardate 201207.01

I have been wanting to make an Andorian force since I first saw Blue Moon's Betelguesans . I did some Betelguesan head swaps with Khurasan's Sci-fi Police to make my Andorians.

I also finially finished painting up some vechicles I purchased from Ground Zero Games and 15mm.co.uk I had a couple done already, but I wanted to finish the rest and paint up a few passengers as well. Two of the passengers are from Ground Zero Games with head swaps. One of the passengers is from a set of model railroad figures.
