I’ve said it before – I really really like PF sculpts and I’m gradually collecting them up. There is of course a difference between ‘buying’ them and ‘painting’ them (that ‘lead pile thing’).
These guys – Captain Bytt’s Hired Guns – are from Critical Mass Games, fine purveyors of some of the best 15mm sci fi around. News on their homepage is promising to add more options to the small band of Astagar Fighters from previous posts. Cool.
This one’s for PF! The fine (quite literally) sculptor behind these guys and some of my other favourite 15mm miniatures. The first shot was of 3 testers I did before the hole gang but I didn’t get round to posting it before finishing the rest off. So they follow.
Available here from Rebel Minis.
I love the names some people come up with!
As you will see, these are imagined more from the print rendition of these characters rather than the 2014 movie. Highlander Studios (Rod) is great to deal with and there miniatures are full of character. Shame they are in the wrong country. You may have to email directly about these A-Holes and their Space Pals.
Varnish a bit shiny here. Will tone down when matt spray arrives!
Critical Mass Games Captain Bytt and Crew 15mm skirmish packThese fine chaps have been waiting for a paint job for a while now. Absolutely love the style, sculpts and detail on these. Again, some PF sculpts. Just wish there were more (gradually collecting all his 15mm work).
Minor conversions to the centre and centre-right fellows to make them more combat ready than originally intended (plus could do with some ‘Force’ types which I think they are prefect for).
Recently acquired an airbrush so may well go back and do their sabres more justice.
Great bunch of comments from the TMP forum, sadly split between 2 options – leave as they are, or go for the snake patterns.
By way of staging, here they are as a group with finished bits.
Here is the orange guy (tail fixed) pre-pattern.
Here is is with pattern in place. Thanks Kallman for the image reference – followed your colour recommendation.
I know what I think for the rest. Just wanted to share.
Wondering how my iPhone pics turn out?
A PF sculpt from Rebel Minis. Nice. If small.
