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!

Sync on the Warpath!

Over the weekend it was brought to my attention that HobbyHub, a local Mantic distributor, was holding a sale on some of the Warpath items.
I immediately logged onto their website to see what was on sale, and bought up a bunch of Warpath items I'd been looking for an excuse to buy.


I hadn't mentioned this in an earlier post because it seemed to good to be true and I almost expected to receive an email saying that they were out of stock and I'd missed out on a great deal.
But I was ecstatic and relieved to receive a package yesterday morning which contained my order:

  • 2x Fate of the Forgestar (Warpath Starter Box)
  • 1x Forge Father Huscarl

I plan on making a small Forge Father Army, and at the sale prices, the Orx Marauders were just a fantastic bonus.
I'm going to finish off my Veer-myn for Project Pandora, but as soon as that's done I'm going start work on my Forge Fathers!

More Project Pandora, followed by Warpath, to come!

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 Complete


I actually finished these guys of a few days ago, but haven't had the chance to snap a photo! Batch painting the rest of the squad went faster than expected, and I think they turned out pretty good! I'm looking forward to many action-packed adventures in the Grim Cargo with them. 
I think the models themselves are great - certainly good value as part of the boxset. There is enough variety in the pieces to give each model an individual enough look, while still maintaining good squad consistency.

I have put some thought into it, but I can't seem to come up with any good fluff for my Corporation... I'll make sure to update the blog if I do though :)

Alright, now onto the Veer-myn!

Corporation Sergeant


After finishing off five of the regular Corporation Marines, I thought I'd reward myself and paint up the Sergeant. His pose definitely makes him stand out from the other marines, and his pistol and power fist are pretty cool too. I decided to stay consistent with the rest of 'hot' colour scheme and opt for a 'heated glow' on his power fist.

Alright, more Corporation troopers to paint! Stay tuned!
