A bit of a necro but, AAN, I was wondering if you've had a chance to look at the new unpainted "Deep Cuts" Star Trek Attack Wing minis and, if so, what your thoughts were on those. Initially, iirc, they were supposed to have deeper details (hence the name) to better facilitate hand painting but I'm curious if they instead just simulated that with just a one thin primer coat that doesn't fill in the existing details.

I find it a bit difficult to believe that a company like Wizkids that just repaints the same existing models so many times for different waves would go back and do the relatively expensive step of partly recutting existing moulds for a product line that is ostensibly much cheaper than their existing one.

Sorry, can't help. Until now I did not even know that "Deep Cuts" Star Trek Attack Wing existed!
:(

No worries and thanks for the quick reply. Here's a link to the announcement of the second wave of them (with the first already in stores at least here in the US). If you decide to paint one up, I'd be interested in seeing the results and hearing your thoughts on whether they're any better.

Absolutely impeccable work, pleasing to the eye. I envy your highlighting.

Finally Trek again: After a couple of months delay I finally received my Trek Borgs (I made the mistake of ordering the Borg together with Fallout!!!),
the first mini was painted asap and I like the Borg mini a lot…


I painted one of the male Borg minis first, as always a “as faithful as it gets to the TV series mini” with good details.

It's hard to make a predamonantly black model visually interesting, but you've pulled it off!

Thx

Worf and Data, again really good sculpts!

And a groupshot with Jean-Luc!

Wow, great detail! I look forward to seeing even more of your work.

Very nice, you've done a great job of matching their skin colours!

Thanks folks, more will follow indeed.

Great work, can't wait to see more.

And two more female Klingon warrior!

Very nicely done as always. It really does look like you spent some serious time shading the cleavage...

Always!

Stunning work - they look terrifying!

Two more Borg!



as always more on my site: http://www.adpublishing.de/html/star_trek.html

And another addition to the Away Team:

A Denobulan female!

The male Andorian officer, I chose a red uniform as a nice contrast to the blue skin.

And group shot:

The Andorian seems to be a really big fella compared to the rest, just check out his head…

A Cyborg conversion based on the TNG Away Team Vulcan officer. After seeing Airiam in STDisco 2.09 Project Daedalus I wanted a female cyborg Star Fleet officer, I took a Statuesque Mini bionic female head (THE resource for very good female head swaps!) and the Modiphius Vulcan officer body. Done!

Since I had a female Vulcan head to spare I mounted her on an Infinity Mobile Brigade body.

She is now Commander T'Proll of the Task Force Omega.
“Assembled jointly by the Federation and the Klingon Empire to counter the Borg threat, Battle Group Omega (also known Task Force Omega) is a fleet stationed in the Noro Sector. The fleet is home to Omega Force. It serves as a deep space staging ground for incursions into Borg space. A nearby asteroid belt provides raw materials and supplies for the fleet, while a nearby rogue moon emits low-level delta radiation, which hides the fleet's energy signature from the Borg.”
from sto.gamepedia (https://sto.gamepedia.com/Battle_Group_Omega)
Commander T'Proll is wearing her custom Omega Force Armour, the Energy Harness Armour provides basic protection and increases energy attack damage. As a side arm she is equipped with an Antiproton wide beam pistol. The Omega Force Antiproton weapons deal additional damage to Borg, and has a chance to immobilise any target hit.

Finished the good Doctor.

A great sculpt, I am always amazed how easily you recognise the actual actor.

Very nice, great work on the hair.

Very cool, nice job.

Some really nice work here, AAN - were you able to get the promo Khan figure they were doing last year?

Thanks Folks!

No, but to be honest, I did not try to get one. I am not so much of a Khan fan.
I would love to get the Borg Queen however!

Super Great Work!

After the glorious return of Captain Picard to the screen - I just had to finish my STNG character group; Deanna and Will are done!

Will Riker “no. One” and Deanna Troi, IMO the weakest sculpt of the SRNG pack, but still nice minis!


Done, Tasha will be left out, I never really like the character anyway…


more ->http://www.adpublishing.de/html/star_trek.html

I love how Riker's gotta be the one to find a tactical rock to get a leg up onto!

The Away Team grows, a Vulcan Security Officer is added to the team!

Since the current Picard series is also centered around the derelict Borg cub in Romulan space I needed some more Drones.
