I bought another shrouded. I think I'm going to try and convert him to holding a mine. I'm just not sure what to use as a Combined mine!

How about these? I'm pretty sure that is a 1" hex base.

Pretty cool! I like that heavy drone. It looks pretty mine-y. lol

got a few WIP of my Noctifer and the finished Shrouded hacker and Malignos sniper.

Here's the Skiavoros and group shots.

Nice =)
Looks like the Space Marine in the back is going to have a very bad day =P

Yeah, those are looking sharp. I like that the Skiavoros doesn't have the same look to his armor as the rest of them, he does need to stand out from the rest in some way or another.

I think the chap crouching in the reeds is the top of the litter so far. The colors are clean and they're bright where they need to be, I call it a win.

@VS: lol one of the last Marines I still have. Seems kinda silly to get rid of just one guy.

@CC: I like how he stands out but not TOO much. All of the EI type figures will have the same look.

The far right Malignos was going to be my entry into the painting competition too :(

What a great force you've put together so far! They look great.

Thanks they are coming along pretty well I think. They are not taking that long either (if given the time). The Noctifer only took about three days. I should say nights. so about 4-5 hours total.

Here's some new images of my Shasvastii. I've added a hacker screen to my shrouded's hand. I think it's pretty cool. My finished Noctifer and new Gwailo with spitfire. Now that I look at the pictures I see things I could touch up. :(

I like these =)
The bases are especially really nice =)

Oh I forgot to mention they have a washer on the bottom to make them a little more bottom heavy and I've put magnets in the bottom. I'll show pics on how I'm storing them soon. It's essentially a deep baking pan. The magnet holds them in place now matter what angle. No more trying to get them in foam!

Brilliant !
Is it an expensive way to store minis ?

CDK, wow...that cloak, those bases....just wow...

Probably the cheapest ever! Right now the pan is a used one the wife doesn't use anymore! But I saw them at the store for around $5. The plastic container that then goes into she got at the store for about $3!

Thanks Revenent! I'm pretty happy with the bases. I'm thinking of adding running water on the Noctifer.

What about the magnets ?

Even cheaper! $0.16 at this place. I got 50 of them for $13.00 with shipping.

Sweet looking stuff! Never liked the aliens but they look good!

Here is my new carrier for my figs. On the CA I glued a steel washer on the bottom and then a magnet right in the center. This was because I used resin bases. You can't see that well but the figures are almost on their side! Love it.

Very nice minis! i can't wait to see that guijia painted!

Have to echo the sentiment of others on here and say the bases look lovely! Really nice effect you have achieved, and goes well with their colour scheme. Really like the cloak on the Noctifier as well!

Do you mind me asking how you did the weird effect with the hacker? It looks great, really suits the 'voodoo tech' style of the CA I think. I've tried lots of ways of using the hacker plastics on other minis but gave up as I couldn't make it look like anything other than coloured acetate.

It must be the lighting lol. I don't really know. I made sure that his hand was under some of the printed art so you wouldn't see the glue holding it in place. I also cut it down a bit from the original art.

Well here's what I'm going to work on next. Shrouded sniper and mine layer, Cadmus with shotgun, Aswuang with shotgun, and three seed soldiers.




What do you guys think I should use these figs for? I love the figs but never got to use them so I thought they'd make stand ins.

Well here's a little bit of an update. I haven't been able to take the time to paint in months. Just too much going on in RL. Even when I do have the time I haven't had the inspiration to do it.

Cadmus with Shotgun



Shrouded Sniper



Aswang with Shotgun

Nicely done sir! Keep up the motivation!

I'm liking the colour scheme on your shasvastii. And the swampy bases really suit them as well. Luckily the shasvastii don't have any shoes to get wet either! And the aswang looks like he's got hold of some fresh meat. Looking forward to seeing some more.

Very slick, mate! Nice to see you working on these.

I like the colour scheme especially the skin colour on the Shasvastii.

Thanks. When I first saw Shasvastii I thought of Amphibians. So that's why I went with the skin color and swamp bases. Then I thought the armor should be natural colors to help the camo.
