Painted up a few Satyr bot from victory force games. Painted these a generic massed produced fighting machine . Only issue I have there are only 5 poses. But since they are supposed to be generic guess that is OK. Went with a white tan color. Tried to stay away from the Star wars droid look.

Thanks for posting, I've been looking for something like that! |

Nice work, but they do look like Trade Federation Droids. |

Do you have any scale shots with humans? Aren't these robots supposed to be taller than a man? |

Sorry, forgot to take those pics. They are around 35mm tall. The way the legs are make them taller then 28mm. Adam |

Nice models – You appear to be a very prolific painter, which is excellent, but with a small amount of additional work the models could be 100% better. I have to say that the basing is the worst bit and really lets the models down a lot. Looks like you've just slapped on some brown paint without making an attempt to cover the slot gaps. Filling the gaps with a bit of putty then using modelling sand to give the base some texture is really very easy. Also, even a basic shade on the base colours would provide a massive improvement on the painting. Sorry to be negative, but I'm assuming you post the pictures to get feedback and comments to help you improve ? Ian |

They'd make good Elysium security proxies. |

Perhaps he isn't finished and planned to base later? I like them. I don't think they look Trade Fed though. The legs and heads and very different from Trade Fed. |

I paint to game, Don't paint for show. And I hate doing basing material, all ways come off when playing. No matter what you use to seal it with. So I just leave the base with color. These where some what of a test with tans, there is a shade drybrush but hard to tell in the pictures. Just another thing knocked of the lead pile. Adam |

Filling the slottabase is easy using a putty and, as an alternative to using scatter or flock you can use a textured base paint. I use it all the time. It never comes off and is easy to use. I usually give the bases a quick wash and then a dry brush. Sorry… just my opininion and preference. I would feel bad fielding partly completed models (i'm referring to the lack of slot filling on the bases) especially if my opponent had taken care to paint and complete his / her figures to a decent basic standard.
