From MattW: StarCraft and Renaissance ships (35 points)

 MattW Statcraft and Renaissance ships 


A bit slack over the last week with too much opportunity on the deck and not completing much! 

First up completed some 1/600th renaissance galleys 



Then completed some skirmish figures. First up and old Paranoia Citadel figure from the 80s, “the blue trooper” painted up as as a block riot control for my Judge Dredd collection. 


Finally 3 figures for Tomorrow’s War futuristic skirmish game, two are crusader and the single I think is Infinity? 





Four 28mm @ 5 points = 20
Five 1/600th galleys @3  = 15 points 
Total points 35 points 

Squirrel points 
Renn galleys 1
Tomorrows War 1
Total 2 

Cheers

Matt


From Millsy:

Wow, what a blast from the past! We played a lot of Paranoia back in the day and really enjoyed it. Such a fun game and so far removed from anything else we played. I never had any miniatures for it though. Your miniature really suits the Judge Dredd vibe, so much though I do wonder if that was where the inspiration for the sculptor came from.

Your galleys are especially nice, really crisp lines and great colour choices. Will you add sails and if so made from what?

35 more points for you mate. Nice work.

Cheers,
Millsy

    1. Cheers mate, a nice little diversion and simple paintwork really, hard to believe they have been in my project drawer for 15 plus years.

    1. Thanks Adam, no I think they could be Navwar or some other company now defunct. I have had them for at least 15 years sitting in my project drawers. More naval coming next week!

  4. Interesting selection-the galleys look rugged and mean ready for a fight whereas the fantasy figures look quite cute!

  6. Millsy,

    I never played Paranoia and purchased her with a job lot of Citadel Dredd.

    I have sails I think in a project drawer, but so far failed to find them so I ordered some replacement sails from Skytrex , but they have failed to appear after three weeks….
