I got the proper camera out, and took two work in progress pictures of the samples I've received from Marcin at Oddzial Osmy of his forthcoming 15mm SF range. I still have to tart up the bases with some foliage and rocks. Enjoy. The size will play merry hell with the board width. :-) Ian PS. Those thick bases are so I can put numbers on them for the display case |

great work Ian, looks like a great start to a new range.great paint |

Like the helmets…might make for good scifi Chinese. |
| Martian Root Canal | 01 Jul 2011 5:24 a.m. PST |
The embedded journalist is a must have. Very nice figures. |
| Gunner Dunbar | 01 Jul 2011 7:58 a.m. PST |
awesome paint job, love them. |
| Eli Arndt | 01 Jul 2011 8:29 a.m. PST |
Very nice. They have a certain 2300AD appeal to them. Love them, -Eli |

Another line of 15mm sci-fi? YES PLEASE! These look great! |
| marcin2501 | 01 Jul 2011 10:17 a.m. PST |
Wow – you are faster then me Ian ;) My painting is still in progress. |
| Space Ghost | 01 Jul 2011 11:21 a.m. PST |
Where are those bases from? TheGhost |
Uesugi Kenshin  | 01 Jul 2011 11:52 a.m. PST |
Bravo on the SAW figures, and the journalist. |
| Uesugi Kenshin | 01 Jul 2011 11:55 a.m. PST |
PS. I rather like the thick bases too! |
| ethasgonehome | 01 Jul 2011 12:29 p.m. PST |
The bases are 20mm round bases from eM-4 – I hold stocks :-) – finished with sandy-brown Brushscape (407) from Coat' d'arms to level with the figure base, and dry-brushed an assortment of caramels, pale yellows and off-whites from my paint collection. A wash of some sorts also crept in. I then ran matt black acrylic round the outside to tidy them up. I deliberately didn't do more at this stage so I could photograph them without bits of flock and talus dust interfering with the photographs. and because I thought you'd all appreciate more pictures of the range, even at a rough and ready stage of their life. |
| Stealth1000 | 01 Jul 2011 12:58 p.m. PST |
They are brill. Must have some. |
| Uesugi Kenshin | 01 Jul 2011 3:54 p.m. PST |
If I have only one "observation", all the Lads in the lower pic look like they are posted on a rooftop raining hell down on some other folks heads. Like I said, just an "observation"… ;-) |
| rvandusen | 01 Jul 2011 5:07 p.m. PST |
I think those are awesome! East Bloc troops for Tomorrow's War |
| Gunner Dunbar | 01 Jul 2011 5:36 p.m. PST |
I agree with rvandusen, I originally thought Aliens, but I think their better futuristic Russian, they are awesome. |
| Dropship Horizon | 02 Jul 2011 3:22 a.m. PST |
all the Lads in the lower pic look like they are posted on a rooftop raining hell Which is exactly why I prefer the guys in the lower photo. Cheers

| Uesugi Kenshin | 02 Jul 2011 5:52 a.m. PST |
"Which is exactly why I prefer the guys in the lower photo" I'll tell you what. If he has a complimentary pack with riflemen pointed/covering sky/roofwards then he his a marketing genius who will take many of my duckets. ;-0 |
| SpaceJacker | 02 Jul 2011 8:46 a.m. PST |
Cool minis, and a nicely different look to other ranges. Certainly perfect for Tom-war enthusiasts. |
| marcin2501 | 02 Jul 2011 2:27 p.m. PST |
They were not supposed to be Russians, but I like idea ;) Marcin

John Leahy  | 02 Jul 2011 11:04 p.m. PST |
These look great! I'm curious to what the packaging and pricing will be. Thanks, John |
| Splod89 | 04 Jul 2011 5:32 p.m. PST |
They'll do nicely for ESU Naval Infantry for those playing in the GZG-Verse :) |
| Uesugi Kenshin | 04 Jul 2011 8:59 p.m. PST |
Now we just need a gasmasked version Marcin ;-) (along with the guys covering the roofs!) |
| Rothgar | 05 Jul 2011 12:37 p.m. PST |
I wouldn't mind seeing a few more shooting poses, but those look great! |
| Lentulus | 05 Jul 2011 4:57 p.m. PST |
Reporter is certainly a must have – hope a cameraman is in the works. |
| Splod89 | 05 Jul 2011 10:03 p.m. PST |
Meh… Someone else can have my reporter. Swap you for the drone controller? :P
Now if only they were 20mm /Sigh |
| marcin2501 | 07 Jul 2011 2:46 a.m. PST |
Lentulus- there is cameraman ready ;) |
| Lentulus | 08 Jul 2011 2:52 p.m. PST |
Lentulus- there is cameraman ready ;) Perfect. Great fun can be hard with operations-short-of-war when both sides get to manipulate the camera team to show the other guys off as villains. One of the good things about SF is that you can do both-sides-are-grey games without kicking anybody's politics. |
| Umpapa | 09 Jul 2011 2:37 a.m. PST |
Splod89: there will be also drone controller. :) |
| Splod89 | 09 Jul 2011 11:11 p.m. PST |
Oh awesome :)
By drone controller I was just thinking of the bloke with the laptop though. What's he meant to be then? An EW specialist? |
| Uesugi Kenshin | 10 Jul 2011 4:40 a.m. PST |
He's the unit accountant. |
| Rhysius Cambrensis | 10 Jul 2011 12:34 p.m. PST |
Love them and i need them! Especially the reporter dude! |
| Umpapa | 24 Jul 2011 5:40 a.m. PST |
Here is thread in polish with recent photos of all OO products:

| Splod89 | 24 Jul 2011 3:44 p.m. PST |
Gorgeous… At first they looked very ESU but now I'm getting a Colonial Marine vibe… Reckon I'll stick with ESU though, teach those NSL Bastards for encroaching on my space.
Definitely picking some of these puppies up. Any idea on a release date? |
| AVAMANGO | 27 Jul 2011 2:02 p.m. PST |
These are good looking troops i can see them also being Russian (ESU) or perhaps a Polish contingent as i think their uniforms inparticular their helmets have a very eastern European look to them, and as a bonus their is ample troop choice in this range to fill out and complete a large near future force, i would also appreciate some more information on this range such as a proposed release date and reference order codes.
Note: These troopers would compliment Khurasan Miniatures Eagle (Lightning) MBT and their Yozhik (Hedgehog) Heavy APC. |
| AWuuuu | 27 Jul 2011 3:11 p.m. PST |
IIRC Marcin mentioned september as release date, but that was some time ago.. |
| khurasanminiatures | 27 Jul 2011 5:33 p.m. PST |
Actually Avamango the Nova Respublik infantry are being made as we speak! They will also compliment the yozhik and red banner.  |
| Splod89 | 27 Jul 2011 6:31 p.m. PST |
Pics or it didn't happen ;) Any idea yet where and when we can pick these suckers up? |
| combat wombat | 27 Jul 2011 7:03 p.m. PST |
|
| Uesugi Kenshin | 27 Jul 2011 9:16 p.m. PST |
Im with Avamango, Poles all the way! Btw…will there be a sniper? |
| AVAMANGO | 27 Jul 2011 9:45 p.m. PST |
Polish Planetary Assault Force or PPAF for short. ;) Its good hear about these new Nova Respublik infantry from Khurasan Miniatures im very much looking forward to seeing them and no dought parting with some more of my hard earned cash… |
| marcin2501 | 28 Jul 2011 2:09 a.m. PST |
They could be Polish as well – we didn't choose commercial name yet ;)
Release date is still September if nothing wrong happen.
No snipers right now, but I will make them for sure. Marcin

| Von Trinkenessen | 28 Jul 2011 4:20 a.m. PST |
I saw them at Devises totally awesome with an original feel to them.
I think they may replace my Pan Asian Confederation project as the new contingant for my coalition forces. Working on a pre-production exercise for vehicles and potential TOE. Keep up the good work Marcin Guy T |
| Uesugi Kenshin | 28 Jul 2011 6:07 a.m. PST |
For me they will be the "Polish Rapid Defense Force" for use against their revitalized "Nova Respublik" (aka Russian) neighbors who have territorial ambitions. Marcin, glad to hear about the snipers! Also glad to hear about a September release date, since my wife's birthday is in August there will be no conflicts ;-) |
| Lion in the Stars | 28 Jul 2011 8:53 a.m. PST |
*Very* cool… The Embed crew is likely to see more gaming time than anyone else in the whole pack, but I like them ALL! |
| Splod89 | 02 Sep 2011 9:14 p.m. PST |
So dredging this up from the darkness of a few pages back…
Anyone know how far off these are, and where will we be able to buy them from? |
sends a sci-fi platoon to Ukraine for painting.
