Sorry for delays, got some work on their skins and eyes done, next will be the lighter eye and sensory organs in their head tentacles on the Unidrons.

More work to follow, I must make a lighter color of the idea of glowing eyes. Skin is pretty much of the reddish kind, and then power supplies in blue, as well as the Plasma.

OK they look fairly disgusting! Nice kits, well executed as usual, looking great bud.

and in my head cannon, they are all fused in place to nanites helping connect/repair/etc.

Just a suggestion for your tank corp;

Back with a pink and black vengence , looks good Shaso.

TY Oldmate! I have given thought to resurrecting more old tanks and making them 40k-ish. The old British/french and russian ideas work well, and avoid the trope of Pz-II's as IG vehicles .

I need to finish him, have been side tracked with some 3D cast Klingons so will post images of those soon as well as updates on the alien bio-mechanoids

Sorry all, I have been busy, but will have images soon of Klingon ships, and primed minis, and then back to work on the aliens!

Cool, looking forwards to seeing it!

Okay so a break from ground units, and also breaking the drought as I did get my camera and computer to communicate with each other. I present the Chunky D-20 attack cruiser!

[/img]

[/img]

and a big trifoil on the belly
[/img]

I have her using a Torpedo launcher in the front, and twin launchers in the tail. It has a compliment of 10x multi-directional disruptor turrets and 4 heavy disruptor cannons in the front end of the warp nacelles


Next is the reinforced and bulked out D-10 multi-purpose cruiser. it can be a carrier, landing operations and command and control vessel as well as a battle cruiser.
[/img]

[/img]

[/img]

Torpedo launchers in the front and rear, 4 rear disruptor turrets, 4 belly turrets, 4 dorsal turrets, 6 turrets on the command section, 2 turrets at the base of the neck. 4 heavy disruptor cannons in nacelle tips, and 2 disruptor cannons at the "wing" tips.
That one is a beast in combat.

Packing 4 engine mounted heavy disruptor cannons, a fore and aft torpedo launchers, and 4 disruptor turrets at the command pod, with 4 wing mounted disruptor turrets

Those Klingon ships are weapons of beauty. They really take me back, especially the D10.

I came into the thread for the Klingon ships, but I'm staying for the aliens. Those are really cool, with paint jobs that pop.

Thanks Bob! , I had to have the old FASA designs even though they are slightly altered, but updated. the #-D prints are sturdy and took well to drillingand pinning for the turrest and display standd pole.

Well, I have done more work on the Anathematic, still have yet to add the green element to it. But here, check out his power claws.

Thanks guys, I have to finish the killer synthoid, and also have started a new model for my 1/1000 collection too! Klingon D-6 from the Axanar fan film from 2014, and future upcoming 2-parter Here are the warp nacelles, Impulse reactor/shuttle bay area and the upper bridge partrs.
[/img]



Hull and neck-to-bridge with under panel, the neck is also very nice due to metal insert to keep it from sagging when assembled.
[/img]


Neck support struts, warp nacelle components, shoulder cannons, and trailing edges of the wings.
[/img]


Nice and chunky base
[/img]


pointy bits are the four impulse engine sections, (makes it very maneuverable), rectangles are panels for the warp engines, th smaller 2 parts are the back ends of the war engines, the dome is of course the classic Klingon bridge section ball.
[/img]


I did speedily clean, dry and assembled the parts, and here is what i could get the parts to do for me.

Coming at ya!

Next phase is black primer on those buggos, more pale green for the D-6, etc.

Okay, still alive and paint work on Shasvaastii Buggos proceeds, basic black primer.

Two of the mean Calibans,a Gwailos heavy armor, a HMG guy and shrouded

So, Nox and seed troops, With a Malignos in the middle.

Running speculo killer, Nox soldier and sniper, and a Mentor with a new pose shrouded

Haiduk came with his own terrain piece of a ruined wall.

I next added the red of the flex-armor they wear with the hard armor outside.

Here I have applied "Carnage red" from Reaper Paints as the base for the red armor partss, a lighter reddish dry brush and a red ink wash should help make it look good!

Same base of red for all

I'm really digging those Shasvaastii. Nice work, brother.

Thanks! I do work under new pressures now with the baby cataracts making things a little blurry! the hands still shake some. BUT I have new imagery Baseline bugs got new orangey eyes
[/img]

New wave of bugs

next five, Malignos wears a full battle helmet while some wear a mask.

Another five,Not one mask among them, tsk, tsk, they will not like it if their enemy uses Raid on them.

Next trick will be their armor

Okay, I know I have been dealing with long gaps of late, and this time, I am back with humans! Basically, Space Russians from Ariadna. Lead by an augmented super soldier and backed by a heavy battlesuit of powered armor.

[/img]

[/img]

[/img]

[/img]

Okay back again with a mass paint work done, their armor metallic has been applied, the base armor is Reaper paints' Adamantium Black. I like the shade and texture it gives to the armor plates.

Batch 1
[/img]
[/img]

Batch 2
[/img]
[/img]

Batch 3
[/img]

I think the 2nd of the images level is sharper and crisper .


Batch 4

Batch 5

Big Boy

And the close up effects of the images point out where the red needs touch ups on the minis.

Merry Holidays all! Came back to end the year with a new distraction as I got hold of 3 that's right, 3 new TAG minis. First up is the Yu-Jing Wolf Cavalry model, a beefy beast well armed for shooting, flaming, and even close combat
[/img]

parts
[/img]


I did get Wildfire, so my O-12 will be getting a powerful reinforcement with this baby. Big fist and BIG Gun!
[/img]

what was in the box was chonky!
[/img]


And the first one to get built/painted is the Shasvaastii Sphinx in it's revised glory and it looks like a HUGE Gwailos but a big gun/sword, and a wrist flamer.
[/img]

some fiddly bits
[/img]

and on other news, my Megalodron has hit the states, and I await it's progress to my mailbox.

It is interesting how the models are set up. I have assembled the Shasvaastii Sphinx, started with the legs, then added the torso and head parts.
[/img]
[/img]

Added the "wings"
[/img]
[/img]

Then added the gun arm

flamer then added, and sword in holster on the back

So, I put the primer on the bug suit. Let me know what you all think of "sexy in black" concept with a insect based suit.

with light absorbed some, the details do show, it helps for painting.

Happy Holidays! Yes, I bear images for the day! Armor material is set and dry brushed with a lighter color.

Okay, I ordered this as a kick starter pledge back in early March, it has come though some weird gak due to the world being hit by the Pandemic, but in freezing temps of the bitter kind, it landed on my front porch! at long last, after months of waiting, I have the Megalodron! the shape of the box threw me off, until I looked inside and found it like this
[/img]

Easily assembled and disassembled for now for cleaning and painting purposes.

Upper head/neck/back

the slot for the lower end to join with, so now you see why permanent assembly may not be needed.
[/img]

Overall a very chonky beast, and one that seems slightly de-greased, but the base indicates a warm-soapy wash is needed, and then filing down spots as seen, then I should be able to ink it and then primer it. And it is kind of a tank for the C.A.
