A great addition to the range, I love the kung fu poses! I'll need to watch Falling Skies soon, I think...

Unarmed Xar
I've been rather busy painting figures for Cthulhu Wars recently but I made time to paint the latest Xar from Ground Zero Games.

Cthulhu Wars
When I started this blog, I intended it to include a certain amount of Lovecraft inspired miniature painting. That's partly the reason for the name of the blog.
That hasn't exactly happened. Well, not yet.
I am, however, about to start work on my friend's Cthulhu Wars game but because I want to keep this blog for 15mm figures as much as possible, I have decided to blog my progress with the game on my other, non-sci fi blog, Ralph's Little World.
If you're interested you can follow the progress over the next few months here:

Captain Bytt and Crew
Captain Bytt and his crew are from Critical Mass Games in their mercenary range.
[Edit: I have since learned their names. They are (L-R) Mr Knocks, Captain Bytt, Nyoda, B-BE and Mr Slaps]
The detail is exquisite and looks very much like it was sculpted by the enigmatic PF, whose work I try to pick up when I spot it.
This pack is clearly a civilian/technician team, but the accompanying pack "Captain Bytt's hired guns" will give them a bit of firepower when I get round to painting then.

Armies Army Pegasus VTOL
The V212 Pegasus VTOL.
I've had a pair of these for about a year now and I have finally finished one of them!
An absolutely glorious sculpt by Steve Tyler of Coolhand Customs, it comes in resin and metal with a choice of landing gear up or down. The tilt rotors are seperate so they can be glued in any orientation and the weapon load out includes two gatling cannons and two rocket launchers.
I knew straight away I wanted to have flames on one, and that was the first thing to get painted.
I see this as a mercenary vehicle. I'll be painting the other in a more military style.

Scratch built shanties
Following on from my previous post, I was asked to take some photos of my shanties, which reminded me that I had been asked a while ago to write an article about how I made them.
I think the time has come for me to make some more, so I will describe the process in that article and just leave some photos here for now.
Suffice to say that the main components are; corrugated plastic sheet, balsa, matchsticks, small stones and kitchen roll.
