More Sci-fi figs

Finished another batch of sci-fi figs recently. These 28mm figs will most certainly be seeing use in Stargrave. All these figs are resin (with some metal bits) and are from Bombshell Miniatures. All the figures in the next fours pics are from the Galactic Defense Force (GDF) faction from their Counterblast game. First up from left to right is a Shrinaar Sentry, an Alanti Commander and a Human Sentry. 

Next is an Alanti security officer, an Illyrian Sentry and an Illyrian Ranger.

And finally is a cat in a space suit, which is just asking to be used as a loot token. What better loot piece could there be than having a ship's cat? And the fig on the right is a little robot that will probably see use as a Repairbot.

I'm going to be throwing myself into terrain construction for the next little while so there might not be very many figs coming out in the next month or two.

More Counterblast figs

Yesterday I finished off the last of my Counterblast figs that I currently have. These figs are from Bombshell Miniatures' Counterblast line. These 28mm figs are metal and resin. There's two factions here and I'll start with the Galactic Defense Force (GDF).



From left to right: Shrinaar Sentry, Shrinaar Enforcer, Human Sentry and a Combot. The Shrinaar are cat people hence the tail.

The next group of figures are from the Lancers faction. Lancers are the rough-and-tumble types living in the Outer Reaches.



From left to right: Unagi (an Alanti character), Shrinaar Captain, Alanti Lanceguard, Shrinaar Clipper and Ur'Zarl (a Shrinaar character). The Alanti are shark people. And finally for the Lancers is this Heavy Combot.



Sitting on my paint table right now are a large batch of assorted French and Indian War figures.

Rebels, Rocket bike and Ladies

Finished some more figs recently. This is a bit of a mish-mash of figs. First up is a group of Rebel Fleet Troopers for Star Wars Legion.


Nice and simple figs to paint. Too bad they didn't come in a bigger group than seven?!? Bit of a rant, but I really wish Fantasy Flight would come out with the Imperial Navy Troopers and Army Troopers. Unfortunately they only seem to release something if there's a release for the other side. So who knows if we'll ever get them. And it would be nice if they came out with some assorted figs for pilots, crew and maybe some civilians but that doesn't really fit into their tournament play figure scheme. I'll probably have to get figures from Shapeways, which will cost me a pretty penny. Argh!

Next up is a Barracuda Rocket Bike from Bombshell Miniatures. This resin fig is for their Counterblast line and is from the Lancer faction.




And finally is a pair of ladies from Sash & Saber. These are from their French & Indian War line and are part of the Female Civilians pack.



'Til next time.

Counterblast Mekkus and a Rabblerouser

My next post for the year is a collection of figures from the Mekkus faction from Bombshell Miniatures Counterblast game. The Mekkus are machines that turned on their creators, wiped them out and decided to try wiping out everyone else in the galaxy. A friendly lot.
First up is the Central Command Unit.


This figure is all metal and is quite a hefty piece.

Next up is a resin Artificer. Artificers are basically repair units.


Next is a pair of metal Defenders. The one on the left has Gamma Disruptors and the other has Particle Blasters.


Next is a group of resin and metal Harvesters. The two on the left have Particle Blasters while the other two carry Gamma Disruptors.


And finally is the Seeker, a stealth scout unit.



And here are all of them together.

And finally here is a Rabblerouser. This is from Warlord Games Fire and Brimstone pack.


'Til next time.

Some More Counterblast figs

Finished some more figures for Counterblast. All figures are 28mm resin (with one exception) and are from Bombshell Miniatures' Counterblast line. First up is a trio of Illyrians.

From left to right: GDF (Galactic Defense Force) Sentry, GDF Ranger, Lancer (think traders/privateers and assorted ne'er-do-wells) Plugger. They're kind of a goofy alien with their mouth down at the bottom of a giant eyestalk.

Next up from left to right are a Lancer Neiran exile, a Lancer Brute and an unaffiliated character named Skip Westmoreland. I've done him up in GDF colours as he can work with the GDF faction. The Neiran exile is the only figure of the lot that is metal.

On my paint table right now is the two Star Wars Legion Imperial and Rebel specialist packs along with a pair of French tanks.

Counterblast Assortment

Finished up some more Counterblast figs. All the figs are from Bombshell Miniatures. First up from the Edofleini faction (Edo for short) is an Edo Undermind.

The next pic (from left to right) is an Underling, a character named Destroys Nulls and a pair of Edokin Eyespies.

Next from the Mekkus faction is a Cyren.

From the Galactic Defense Force (GDF) faction (from left to right) is a GDF Psifer (psychic), a character named Sally Starfield and a GDF Commander.

Also from the GDF is this Heavy Combot.

And finally I've done up some more robots. First up is a pair of HOpR Bots.

And finally is a pair of HLpR Bots and a half dozen MInE Bots. Commander for scale.
Til next time.
