Stargrave: Dead or Alive – Under a Blood Red Sky

The science-fiction variant of Frostgrave was officially released yesterday, so I played a game.

Venators Laxx and M’Kavin. Mood: sky blue.

Kommandos #1

There is something about orks that makes them well suited to “pasted on” themes.

Give a space marine a sombrero and he will look like he has unresolved emotional issues… but give a space ork a sombrero on the other hand (or even better, on his head) and narrative starts to shoot out of him like fireworks.

And that’s my badly stretched simile driven lead-in to why late 20th century style S.A.S. orks in Martian camouflage that I wasn’t keen on in 1994 are what I like right now.

Legacy Warband Gretchin

I forgot to add this guy to the “miniatures painted in 2015 total” in my last post.  Its a gretchin space pirate that was included in the “Oldhammer Legacy Crew group project.  This guy, along with his twenty seven or so scurvy space dogs are en route to their new owner now.  Check out the link for more details on how the project worked.

The criteria for the model was that it had to be a “space pirate” and it had to have a “turquoise” spot colour.  The model had to be supplied with a plain black base, so that the person who ended up with the lot can base them in a matching fashion.

The model is a plastic GW gretchin with a Maxmini goblin pirate head.  I do like painting greenskins.

  • Do those three images make any sense to you?
  • Were you able to watch the movie Roadhouse in its entirety?
  • Does the idea of a boozed up fight between barbarian green aliens in an astro-bar being represented in miniature appeal to you?

If the answer to any of those questions is “Hell yeah!” then read on.  If not, then I really wouldnt bother going any further if I were you.

The clearing of half finished models from the painting desk before the close of 2014 continues.  Treading the line between Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and some mogwai fed after midnight are these Brainboyz, ready to lead ork armies into a more intellectual era. Continue reading
