Blast From the Past

Hi!

Well I am busily working my way through stuff for an upcoming exhibition but have managed to get a tiny bit of hobby stuff done too in the form of completing some figures that I bought way back at the start of my 15mm adventure almost four years ago.

Laserburn Ert Infantry Squad

They have been languishing part painted for pretty much the entire time I was at university and I thought it was high time I finished them.

I do like the Ert infantryman with his goggles and interesting gear, its a bit of a shame that they only have a couple of sculpts and the leader and heavy weapon troops aren't nearly as nice. Still once they are painted they don't look too bad.

 Ert Combat Patrol

I also had a couple of plastic Mechwarrior battle armour models kicking around so have painted one of them up to act as a mobile heavy weapon droid to support the Ert troops.

 Ert Mech and Troopers

I tried a bit of a different look on the bases and am still not sure about the finish but it fits a bit better than the dry desert finish of the rest of my collection.

Next up theres a bad guy who has likewise been sat half done for many a moon. 

 Gatorgore Mercenary 

He is a pretty poor sculpt to be honest and required a fair amount of work to get the best out of. I have tried to go for a sort of Aligator skin patterning but he still looks a bit like a guy in a rubber suit. Still he will make a decent thug or villain for games.

Last up heres a couple of pics of my Ert troopers in action against a marauding Carnosaur pack!

Gatorgore Pack Master

I doubt I will be able to get much more done before heading off to Bristol in October but I shall see what I can do. I also have some possible employment coming up but we shall have to see what happens!

All the best!
