New and Improved Aliens

To refresh your memory, these aliens were originally painted with a bright shaded to dark, and it really didn’t work.  I hit them with a thin Devlan Mud wash, and that helped, but these critters needed another dusting of bright green highlight and bone white spine to polish them...

Awful Green Thing Repair

It’s amazing how starting to train for a marathon (told you I was a beast), finding out your wife is expecting a new baby, and getting transferred to a new office in the company that means a 20% cut in hours and pay will interfere with miniature wargaming, isn’t...

Baby Mommas and Babies

Just pictures of the last of the Pendraken Aaliens today: Three lovely ladies, all painted up and ready for anight on the town. Ten little babies all in a row. Action shot! Side by side comparison of the three types of critters anda human marine for scale....

Awful Green Things

These Pendraken alien creatures are normally painted black for reasons obvious to anyone who has ever seen the movie Alien or Aliens or so on and so forth.  Not me though – I’m a rebel. (Slight pause here for me to give a firm Barney Fife sniff and hoist...

Civvies

Those alien eggs can’t hatch from their own chests, you know.  They need warm bodies for incubation, and the marines need something to protect, so here’s some cannon fodder.   SF20 – Civilian men SF21 – Civilian women As usual, excellent sculpts from Pendraken.  SF20 comes with two poses,...

One Two Three Four…

…Who here loves the Marine Corp? The humans have twenty solid spacejarheads to protect them from a hostile universe. Pendraken SF2 Note the BnL logos on their sleeves.  Pretty proud ofthem, to be completely honest with you. The BNL logo on these guys was easier than it looks.  It’s...

First Sci-Fi Figures

Check out the quirky paint job on these !predator aliens: You may be thinking that this is a lazy paint job, but there is a method to my madness.  Remember that these guys are supposed to be cloaked.  Painting them the same colors as the ground cover means that...

Naked Figures

Just fishing for hits with a title like that.  By naked, what I really mean is ‘without paint’.  This batch is all Pendraken all the time. SF1 – Marine in battle armor SF2 – Marine SF17 – Alien predators SF21 – Civilian women SF22 – Civilian men On the...

They Blew It Up!

Those damn dirty alien-apes!  Damn them to alien-hell! If only this came with a liberty-torch. So this terrain piece is painted and ready for the table.  It hovers somewhere on the edge of difficult and impassable terrain.  The precise nature will likely depend on the scenario.  Either way, it...

Close Encounter of the Second Kind

“Visual sightings of aliens or physical effects on animate and inanimate objects.”  Starting a blog post with a definition, how lame.  Hopefully the rest of the post makes up for it. It’s no secret that Matakishi’s Tea House has been inspirational for this sci-fi project, and one of the...
