Two posts in two weeks? Not bad.
Today's offering is a Kickstarter Add-on from the much maligned Sedition Wars boardgame produced by Coolminiornot back in 2012. Lots went wrong with that Kickstarter that I'll not go into as it's ancient history now, but I will say that all the minis that looked like they were going to be amazing from their initial sculpts, ended up being pretty bad due to them being produced in Restic. That stuff is just plain awful to work with (And because of that, I didn't do one darn thing with any mold lines), nuff said.
The first in this series, (An effort to further reduce my unpainted mountain.) is a "Not-Captain Mal" from the Western-Sci-fi series Firefly. I LOVED this series and it was a crying shame that FOX did the dirty to Joss Wedon, causing his pet project to be canceled before it had a chance to show more of this very entertaining setting.
Next up the final piece from the British/Commonwealth Support Group boxed set by Warlord Games, a Vickers MMG team. Also painted in Canadian greens, this team is going to add some nice small arms support to my Canadian Bolt Action lists.
Added a larger rock to this base just to make it more interesting to look at. LOL There were no Large rocks on Dieppe beach in the pics I could source, so a little artistic license on my part. |
Next up, some more Firefly characters and some other theme'd sculpts from beloved sci-fi titles.
Your MG stand looks great Dai! Guy in duster not bad either. Good to see service returning to normal.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jon!
DeleteMan, I did love Firefly. I didn’t know about it till after I saw the movie Serenity. Mal looks great. Sorry, not Mal but someone very similar. And I laughed out loud at the bit about pointing. 😀
ReplyDeleteGlad you like mate. Next up will be Zoe!
DeleteThe duster turned out very nice. I like the pants as well. Looks like he has a bit of a skin disorder on his face though. That related to this restic material?

DeleteThanks Dave! Yeah, looking at these pics again I need to revisit that. I was in a rush to get him painted and just called him "done" right as dinner was ready LOL
DeleteWhen I read that title I was hoping to see Captain Reynolds 😀 I still have yet to watch that last episode of the series because I know when I do it will officially be over lol
ReplyDeleteGreat work on that Vickers team too.
Aww... :( You should watch it though, because it's really good. Did you hear there are talks to reboot the series?
DeleteI did not... very interesting. Fingers crossed 😀
DeleteExcellent work on all Dai, miss Firefly was a great series, and enjoyed Serenity too ( shame about Wash !) The Vickers team looks great too
ReplyDeleteThanks Dave!
DeleteThe comics that came out really expanded on the Firefly season nicely, even a post-Wash story too. You should check them out.
Shiney.
