For Wednesday: JuanM More Sci-Fic figures! (25 Points)

Here is my third entry, at last. I have been painting in a 1:1 scale so I have had very few time for this task, but here are the next figures:

First one, Hansa, a Security contractor. He is a 28mm character from Warlord Games´ BGA game, a very nice miniature and a perfect character for my "Rogue Stars" games (if I´m able to play one!).




Secondly, one of the clones used for security task in the Astropolis Fleet, member of Hansa team. He is a figure from Haslefree Miniatures:




Then, another figure from Lead Adventure Miniatures´ Astropolis range: an Officer. Great model, very nice and really simple, but with a lot of character.




A Navigator from Colony 87 small range of Science Fiction miniatures. Really, really fine.




And finally, a second Crono-Gladiator from Games Workshop´s Necromunda range. I like a lot these old miniatures, they have lost nothing of their character.




And this is all. In this moment, I am painting Science Fiction models, and enjoying the task a lot, but I am looking at other periods too.

Cheers!!!

ByronM: Some very good painting here Juan, top notch!  I really like all of the highlights on all of these guys and especially like the skin tone on the first one. All of them are excellent, but the shading and subtly on the first in really good.  That is something I always struggle with as typically shading on skin is either to harsh (done to look good at a distance) or to soft (done to look good close up), yours is a perfect balance between the two (at least in my opinion!).  5 different characters and looks, for a well deserved 25 points.

  2. That navigator is ace: I love the contrast between the bright purple robe and the muted brown cape.

  10. The basing on all these is amazing, and that Astropolis guy has a definite old-skool Traveller vibe about him. Love the navigator as well!
