15mm Sci-Fi Deep Space Exploration Team.

Some figures and bots from GZG and form the nucleus of an exploration team searching for worlds to pillage  explore for the giant corporations that now rule the stars.....vehicles and colonial marines to follow!

Went with a basic colour/palette as I don't like my sci-fi too loud!

  1. My General, you are of the purest motives! Your exploration team with serve you well. BTW: who or what is that big metal thing sneaking up on the team...friend or foe?!

  2. They look great. The grey and orange could be classic or modern sci-fi and the purple glow gives them a weirder alien vibe.

  3. I like it. Is this what your using the flags for? I'm stuck with the computer for the moment so I haven't been able to finish exploring the avant-garde version.

  8. Your explorers have a severe lack of weaponry, which will surely be their downfall. Well, they look good at least,

  22. They do look good withthe toned done pallet. I also noticed the lack of guns. Geeks I guess are best without them ;-)

    ReplyDelete

  27. oh, these are the coolest, Lurk!

  28. Terrific stuff, Fran. I always love the more realistic Sci-Fi, where the heroes wear helmets and masks, and everyone moves slowly in moon-boots! I love what you've done with the face masks. Brilliant and grittily realistic. Tremendous!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Very nice Fran. I really do like most of the GZG stuff that I have painted and all their stuff in spacesuits looks great. I'm sure your colonial marines will agree with the never give a geek a gun concept.

  30. Nice one mate. I like the colours. I would have gone brighter myself thinking back to the 60s and 70s when colour TV was in most peoples homes for the first time. The science fiction colours were bright in that era.... perhaps I am showing my age again. Long Lived indeed.... I'll get you for that Mr Lurker!

    Post script: For some reason your comment on my blog has reached my email inbox but not the blog. ??????
