More Vehicles¶

Having catched another flue/virus/whatever which showed itself on Saturday, I am on sick leave this week. Between sleeping all day, I managed to put in some painting time within the few moments I have a clear head in between.

The ConServ vehicles are done, the 3d printed tires glued on. And it took me only since January...

On to the next models :-)

Armed Civilians¶

The clothes on all the models are done. I tried to aim for a brownish cowboy look on some, while trying to get a real colourful look on others to have a nice non-uniform look to the bunch.

The armed civilians are done, ready painted and based. I quite like the mixed up look of the bunch:

Free Trader Crew¶

I continued work on the Free Trader Crew. First up is the Pilot, who also drives the mule to get cargo to and from the ship.

I wanted to paint the model on foot at the same time as the seated model. When I had both besides each other I noticed, that in my first attempt to give the seated drived the head of the Pilot, I grabbed one of the Security Specialist models... :-(

Out came the knife, off went the head and I instant moulded the correct head.

I then tried to sculpt the shirt of the original model on the seated driver.

Then came the painting. Orange suit and hawaian shirt.

After some colourful splotches, I tried to paint on some flower shapes in dark green - according to my wife I managed to archive the look of a childs painting attempts, but not a hawaian shirt look...

Here is the complete vehicle with driver seated and standing. The great panel on the front cries out for the Free Trader Crew logo - another decal I need to design and have custom printed.

The Captain is done. I gave him two different dresses instead of painting both models the same way.

And the Security Specialist is done also. Six indicidual models in a day, not bad. My painting hobby definitely needs more bank holidays...

Free Trader Crew¶

The rest of the crew (Engineer, Ambassador, Preacher, Doctor and Teenage Girl) is done. Only the bases on all of them are missing the finishing touches.
