That flimsy ship doesn't look like it can cross the Atlantic.

If it had rivets, the iceberg would be calling it mama.

Thanks guys, sadly for the kid, he forgot to spend time writing his speech, so, he did not win the school event. So he has the model to show for it, and his 3-fold board, but he went out to play with his friends when he should have taken the time to craft his speech so he could win it. (I had no idea it was a social study contest).

Meanwhile, I have replacement 40mm x 10mm 3pin fans for my mother board coming in this weekend, and then after that, more of the carnivorous hunting space apes.,

So, I got reinforcements today for the Ga' Vra' Ku carnivorous space chimps, so first we got the new hunting beast unit, they get a new hunt-mistress
[/img]

Then the hunt mistress and some of her friends
[/img]

And a elite commando unit for one of the Sgt types to command.
[/img]

So, the boxes come out to 16minis. I have these and my Sonic Fence project to work on.

Those Hungries look incredibly dynamic. And a lot of fun! Looking forward to seeing what you do.

Got started painting the Simians from hell. Starting with the basic soldiers.
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
As can be seen, they are being painted up to match the others who were more the specialists/leader types.


Now for one of the leadership types
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
that mask!, such a charming fellow, scares the heck out of his fellows with shouting and physical violence if they screw up. Just his training, and here I thought my old drill sgt was mean!

Okay, I still have to go over the armor more, and some facial touch ups, but the skin and hair base has started!
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]

And the Sarge
[/img]
[/img]

Okay, so here we are with more images to be ogled at by folks.

The Yaogats, aka Commandos. The leader had to have those odd strands taken off his face.

Also, a different approach to the out fit of the 2nd Oznat(Hunt-Mistress). I went with a Green-gold series of skirt plates, although, I may over coat a couple with the adamantium black hard to say, please let me know what you think guys?

Here she is.
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]
[/img]

Things look to be coming along nicely. I look forward to seeing the end results.

Space Murder Minkies are looking great.

Thanks guys! I am thinking that s different colored skirt needs also some individualized hair, I may add some red tips and maybe pink braids , maybe a streak or two to her hair.


Meanwhile, I am also entering these sonic emitters to the competition thread
[/img]

[/img]

[/img]

Now for the pylons to be cut and sorted, the emitter amps to get smoothed and a rivet strip or four added each.


More on Murder Minkies to post later. Keep watching out for that.

More work on my sonic emitters for the defense barrier.

Rivets of course!
[/img]

shrouded connectors that also protect the wiring to the emitters, they will help with connecting the emitters to the pylons.
[/img]

Pretty much what will be seen as they point to overlap their sonic disruption fields that are to stop many xenos hoards and other intruders.
[/img]

Okay, I worked some more on paint last time I did hobby work. Paint was applied to the Morats/Ga' Vra' Ku raiders.

Vanguard troops

Number 1 add on trooper

Number 2 add on trooper, He seems to hate having his pics taken.

Number 3 add on trooper

Some very interesting additions there Shas!

Thanks Dave! I may call them Larry, Moe, and Shemp..

Now for the heavy armored, heavy support weapon.

[/img]

[/img]

[/img]

So that is my second termie scale soldier for the murderous carnivorous murder monkeys!

The Sgt-major that came with the aggression force.

[/img]
[/img]


And the Yaogat commandoes
[/img]
[/img]

[/img]
[/img]


Support weapon for the team, a combined weapon for mass fire and heavy armor killing.
[/img]

Shotgun with Grenade Launcher for dropping smoke to sneak up behind
[/img]

Trooper with rifle
[/img]

Squad Leader, rifle with underslung anti-armor weapon, and of course a power blade.
[/img]

So the Sgt -Majors can help bolster the squads, and the Yaogats are well armored and tough as well as sneaky.

Now it's wash time?

And finally, a more well placed hunt mistress, as denoted by a wilder hair color scheme, and a skirting of the green-gold metal.

Much more to do, they had a purple wash, I gave the skirt a green wash/inking.

then more skin work needed, and active lenses for the closed visors/masks.

Looking excellent bud.

Thanks Cam! More touch ups will be done on the Killer Grape Apes from Space.

The Pylons, I need to cut the parts I intend to attach the emitters to.


Now, as was noted earlier, the Ga' Vra' Ku have armor tech comparable to all the races making armor for their troops. This heavy armor allows many capabilities for them, making them as hard to kill as any Terminator, or other Heavy Powered Armor in known space. This one is using a large, potent cannon that seems to select between a multiple shot mode that kills troops and light vehicles, or a single potent tank wrecking shot.

These are a little rough right now, as they were cranked out late.
[/img]

Pylon bases for the sonic barrier.

Nice work Shas!

Now to cut the parts for the upright stands, strips for the rivets, and that helps with the terrain pieces for Loudness.

That little lady murder monkey will get her tribal war paint on soon, as will the rest of the Killer simians from outer space!

You had me at

Bases of the pylons are set for rivets, and now loo at how they grow! And a volunteer for size comparison!

All grown to full height now!

You don't do small, do you Shas'.

Good progress.
