After some delays in the postal system, I finally got my latest acquisitions, they are larger than I thought they would be, so they will be played as Up-sized versions of the old FASA models that they are.

Here is the old D-4 "Predator" vclass cruiser.

So, I did get some more work done on the Mowang, or as I like to call it the M-0 W-4 N-6 combat suit with gravitic manipulation gear. So it has the stripey marks added and the glow of the systems power in magenta.

and once again Agent G stands next to it, and you see the M-0 W-4 N-6 is a BIG beasty!

I have another pair ordered along with an engineering officer Just one more to add to the collection once they restock and I can order likely next month. I will add pics of the new arrivals after they get to me. Meanwhile, enjoy the current imagery.

And colors for their ridged panels, Sergeant gets the blue, troops get the field gray/green color, and their metal muscles/cables and handrails

Still, there is so much left to do on all of them!

Hoping these pics will allow for some comments/discussion since there has been silence so far, much more details added via painting on these pics.

Remember, I am making these for an alien faction, hence the odd skin/hair on the exposed figure.

So, dusted off my Centurions and had one pose with the Mowangs to see a size comparison, while around similar in height, the centurion is "girthier" by comparison!

I see his upper face needs re-work, his darker scales being too heavily applied.

But here he is for now.

some lighter grey dry-brushing, maybe some brown ink washes and possible static grass her and there as finishing touches.

Hi guys! I am back with the assembled and inked Shasvastii. They were quite fiddly to assemble, but the inking is a base that highlights the details for me, before I go and prime them with pure black primer.

Nox troopers
[/img]
[/img]

Mentor
[/img]
[/img]

Shrouded
[/img]
[/img]


Caliban
[/img]
[/img]


Gwailos
[/img]
[/img]

So next will be inked 0-12 troopers

Shotgunner

Heavy sniper

Rapid air responder

[/img]

Gamma unit heavy battle armor

So, I can use them all for the main Infinity purpose, or as two different elements of my fictional empire.

Okay so Ink on metal as we all know is no primer coat, and well, I primered the troops

[/img]
[/img]


Gangbuster
[/img]

Sniper
[/img]
[/img]


Troops
[/img]

And now for their counter parts, the In filtration unit of the Buggos

Gwailos

[/img]


Caliban
[/img]
[/img]


Shrouded
[/img]
[/img]


Mentor
[/img]
[/img]


Nox Troopers

Alright, maybe this will bring more questions, I did do the red plus over brush of orange on the armor, dark is adamantium black, and the carapace is a weathered bone+Muddy olive blend, did a deep red for eyes and mouth with yellow for the pupils. I will do a a wash on the carapace of the buggos to get into crevices, and a dry over in spots of the bone then maybe add some spots in a dark color for added fun. Let me know what you all think so far.

Because in space, with many races running around, who would freak over a female fox walking about?
