ParticipantI like The Gup. And this hunk of junk is 100% held together with string and sellotape.

ParticipantThat’s an excellent ship, suitably grungy and worn.
The Gup seems like a fine name!

ParticipantThanks for the words. I look forward to actually getting them on the table soon. I am trying to work out some kind of regular game schedule to try and follow.

ParticipantIntroducing the gang. I only have one character back story ready, but am working on the others. Any ideas welcome. http://inexperiencedmodelmaker.blogspot.co.uk/2017/08/new-starport-scum-characters.html
Who produces/sells these figures now?
Thanks

ParticipantCacique Caribe, they are sold by CP Models now.
The others are here. I have bought the whole pack, and then a few extras. Originally I think they were special edition until the moulds wore out, but now that CP Models sell them, they might just keep them going.
I mean, you know you want to get into 6mm sci fi skirmishing.

They are still by far my favourite 6mm miniatures, so thank you for bringing them into the world.

How did you get scatter to pile up like that? Looks useful for 6mm haystacks.28/01/2021 at 14:28 #150212Thuseld
ParticipantI just stuck a blob of Greenstuff down, and then pressed “sprues” of 6mm infantry onto it randomly.

That is perfect. Wow, that one-of-each set looks very tempting!
Thanks so much.

A derrick is the low tower like structure which would hold the drilling equipment and allow additional lengths of pipe to be fitted for increasing well depth.

ParticipantMore Progress. Just clearing my backlog of unfinished things. A couple of generic APCs or command vehicles, or local militia/gang/law enforcement support.
Other things Sci Fi:
1. A selection of infantry stands that I bought over at Iliada Studios. Primed and need painting.
2. Three “command” or “leader” figures for use in Five Parsecs or other such games. Need to paint their gear, then wash, highlight, flock.
3. A bunker of some kind. It is very simple, but I just need to add foliage for camouflage.
4. A junk build space craft. I have two colours on it, I might just wash it and see what happens.

ParticipantHere is another long stalled project. I have not had a productive month, lots going on outside of the hobby. So actually, it has been a productive month. Here is my finally finished project, having not picked up a brush all month.

ParticipantMore buildings and terrain. A productive evening. Probably the last chance before Easter hits. I will be painting my lounge over Easter, so may not be as productive in hobby time as I would have hoped. These are just a few more things to bring life to my table.

ParticipantA Billion Suns meets clothes pegs. Anyone else on the FB group Super Cheap Wargaming? Lots of interesting inspiration there. Clothes pegs starships has been a bit of a craze, so I am jumping on board.

It’s a group I follow, because there are just so many good ideas, as well as being a fun and friendly group. I’ve not done clothes peg ships yet but that’s just because I don’t need ships yet 🙂
