Second test finished.

I can convert with these just as easily as 20mm, so for 15mm at least, I'm turned. Yes, I will now sing your gospel.

Fabulous work!

What droids are those? Very, very cool.

They are from "The Scene" I believe item RB001.

They're not the droids you are looking for, Dan…


Sorry, I couldn't resist! The models are lovely, as is the paint job.

The one in yellow looks pretty slick.

Great brush work on all of them.

What is the theme of your 15mm "Red' force.

Gunbird08 Feb 2012 1:30 p.m. PST

Louie N, Theme will be PRC (China) with a large degree of robotics and tracked forces, plus a sizeable contigent of civillians and other starport personnel for various purposes.

Those looks really nice. Almost have a Mak/SF3D look to them the way you have them painted up.

Welcome to the Dark Side. Have a cookie grin

I've just gone and ordered these from the scene because of you…

15mm is giving me too many options, Fallout, Star Wars, Aliens, The Thing… Can't COPE ANY MORE!!!!!

Cacique Caribe09 Feb 2012 4:32 a.m. PST

15mm The Thing?

Are you the ONE we have all been waiting for?

Interesting link there Cacique… I've already got my 15mm civvies undercoated ready for painting, bought a load of GZG civvies and space-suited guys.

I've been wanting to game the Thing for some time, just need to find the right minis for it…

Trying to get as much out of them (GZG stuff) as I can so I'm getting them ready for any of the games mentioned above, although outdoor snow capably peeps I seem to be somewhat lacking in at the moment, alas my sculpting skills are not good so I'll have to wait for someone to release some.

Two of my GZG civs will be Thingified (one male, one female) ready for gaming hopefully this weekend – I'm sure I can manage some freaky tentacle things…

Others will become scientist types and/or Imperial officers for my Blasters & Bulkheads games (mixed in with the odd Jedi-alike).

I am a Cylon. I have a plan.

Welcome to the 15mm side. Its lovely.

isdblues09 Feb 2012 9:38 a.m. PST

Back to the OP though – Gunbird, they look brill.

What's the unpainted quality of the casting like?

I've ordered them anyway along with two of the wheelybot designs but it's always nice to know in advance ;-)

Gunbird09 Feb 2012 3:53 p.m. PST

Casting is great. Mine had hardly any mouldlines, cleaned up in a whistle. The other type of bots I have have some more pronounced ones but nothing a file and some elbow grease could not handle, so less then a minute of cleanup time for those.

I'm stuck on the wheelybot as they are to small to draw a decent face on them but I don't want to go the blue screen of death or monochrome green version either. What to do, what to do.

Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition!

But pass it carefully -- if you drop 15mm ammo it can be a bear to find again.
