[Dreadball] Undercity Shadows

With the announcement of the Dreadball v2 Kickstarter launching at the end of this month, I thought it was finally time to get it together and paint the teams I received as part of the Dreadball v1 Kickstarter!

Over the past week I painted through the Veer-myn, and the Undercity Shadows are ready to take to the pitch!

Dreadball Veer-myn

And here's the last sample batch from my Dreadball Kickstarter Striker pledge - the Veer-myn. Yellow is SUCH a pain to paint, though now it should be clear what I was going for with my four Dreadball teams - a blue, red, green and yellow team.
I think the colour choices suit each of the teams pretty well, and I'll finish off the rest of the teams in March when Mantic get around to sending out the alternate model poses/variants promised as a Kickstarter stretch goal.

Veer-myn Complete

Really busy weekend -  I didn't even find the time to post this picture! Here are the Veer-myn in their menacing glory - ready to the take the Corporation with stealth and strength in numbers.

Great little set of troops, even better value for money - I <3 Mantic Games!

Veer-myn Master

And here are the close up shots of the Master! That's the Veer-myn for Project Pandora done, and ready to face off against the Corporation in the corridors of Grim Cargo!

I've also snapped a group shot of the Veer-myn together - stay tuned!

Veer-myn Exterminator

Finished this guy off last night, and managed to get a start on the Veer-myn Master too. This guy is a lot more imposing than the Night Crawlers - the body stands taller, and the chemical back-pack adds a bit more bulk as well.
A very cool addition to rest of the pack - now just the Master to go!

Veer-myn Night Crawler Variant 2

After batch painting the last lot of four Veer-myn, knocking out these guys didn't take too long. I prefer this variant to the first variant I tried painting, as I've found the other variant falls over too easily.

So I've got the Veer-myn grunts done, just the Exterminator and the Master to go!

Veer-myn Night Crawler Variant 1

So managed to paint up four of the Veer-myn Night Crawlers over the weekend. I think I mentioned this earlier, but in the set of 10 Veer-myn Nightcrawlers, you receive 8 Night-Crawlers (2 variants), an Exterminator and the Master - the four painted above are the first variant of Night-Crawler I tackled.

More nasty Veer-myn to come!

Veer-myn Test Scheme

Been a little busy, but I managed to get through a Test Scheme for my Veer-myn. I was aiming for a colour scheme that fit in with the theme of critters scurrying around dark, dingy corridors, and I think I've achieved that. I'll sleep on the colour scheme and see how I feel about in the morning.

The models themselves are great, lots of detail and an almost steampunk look about them. This particular Night-Crawler variant topples over quite easily, so I'll have to see what I can do about getting some bigger bases for these guys.

Corporation and Veer-myn Undercoated

It's been rainy in Sydney for the past couple of days (over a long weekend too - boo!), but I managed to sneak outside during a dry spell yesterday evening and get all my undercoating done!

Since I undercoated them grey, these WIP photos don't really look any different to the assembly shots... but I assure you they're primed and ready for the paintbrush!

Veer-myn Assembled

Looking at the bits above, the set contains 8 Veer-myn Night Crawlers (2 variants), 1 Veer-myn Exterminator (with Chem Thrower special weapon) and 1 Veer-myn Master (Master Reekish).

It's fairly straight forward assembling the set. There is a corresponding body, head, arms and tails for each of the two Night Crawler variants - if you put the wrong head onto the wrong body, then it just doesn't fit right (same with the arms and tails). The two special characters just use the leftover parts, and there's a choice about which head you give to the Master and Exterminator.

Pretty rainy this weekend, so I might have to wait another time before getting an undercoat on them!
