WIP 15mm Speeder and Thunderhawk

Hi guys

I gave the speeders a couple of coats of PVA to try and smooth out the surface, despite the rough finish it is an improvement, and will at least seal the surface to help the paint/washes from being soaked up by the spongy plastic. Will start the painting tomorrow.
this next model was printed by the same company, it is based on a Thunderhawk, but his to small to be a 15mm Thunderhawk, and is more suited to 6mm, I have tried to bulk it out with card stock armour plates, and will use it as a small drop ship, carrying maybe 2 squads.

15mm Blood Angel land speeders ready for paint

Hi guys

These guys are ready for undercoating (can anyone think of any improvements before I do this?) the side crew are only blu taced on, I only gave the Space Marines beaky helmets, back packs and shoulder armour was not going to fit in the cockpit. The morning sun glare is hiding all the detail, I'll take more after the undercoat.

WIP 15mm Blood Angel land speeders

Hi guys

I bought these 3 D prints years ago, finally decided to do something with them, they are quite grainy, so I gave them a sanding down with some nail files, and I will give them a coat of varnish to smooth them out, the sculpts had 2 drivers in each, they are way to small, so have cut them out, and will replace with converted minis, (the minis in the pics are only placed for testing, I have cut them down since to get a good fit) the 2 without wings will be manned with scout, 2 in the front and 1 in each side door, the other 2 will have 2 normal marine space crew.









15mm Colonial marines reboot

Hi guys

After a 4-5 year break from 15mm sci fi, (doing other genres) I am back, I completed a colonial marine based army a few years ago, but ended up selling it, so building another, but more closely resembling the movie type, in looks anyways, will be using a more complicated vehicle camo then the plane green in the movie. Didn't really do much planning with this, just grabbed a heap of figures out of the stash and started building, the infantry are all from Khurasans federal defence force exterminators, navy seals, and post apoc power armour, the 4 larger power armour suits are Khurasan corsair suits, the 6 robots are from Rebel minis.
