Hi!
A day later than promised but here's my completed salvage crew for Star Mogul!
 |
| Farpoint Salvage |
The infantry are made from Sculpey and a bit of EVA foam and mounted on 12mm buttons so are pretty tiny but have enough individual character to be identifiable for skirmish gaming.
 |
| The Truck |
The truck has a sculpey cab, EVA foam and cardboard body and details, while the wheels are wooden beads. I must admit that I had rather a lot of fun making this tiny truck and weathering the daylights out of it. While in real life the big bubble tires would probably be a bit useless they looked cool!
 |
| Infantry |
I've made ten tiny troopers for my starting salvage team but re-reading the Star Mogul rules, I suspect that I'll be adding another 4-5 to their numbers after my first game or two. I like how their little baseball caps turned out and was surprised by just how much character I managed to get with just a bit of paint.

| The Crew in Action |
My next task will be to build a rival salvage company and try out the game and possibly play a mini campaign out! I'll post my progress up here as always and if folks are interested, I can put together a tutorial for how to make the tiny guys as it's very easy and rather fun!

In the meantime, All the best!
Love these (particularly the truck!), and yes a "how to" would be much appreciated.
ReplyDeleteHi!
DeleteI'll see about putting together a how to on making the little guys and the vehicles for my next force!
Absolutely fantastic!
ReplyDeleteMany thanks!
DeleteOh, come on, these are so enjoyable!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you like them!
DeleteMaking your own miniatures is fun. I did some robots/droids for Space Station Zero that came out okay. They were used in the game and looked decent in the pictures, so I'm happy.
ReplyDeleteThere's a real sense of achievement when you play a game using figures you've made and painted yourself!
