I quickly painted these old Megaminis robots while going through a minimalist “dipping” phase in my toy soldier painting a few years ago. I painted them primarily for use in Robo Rally games. With my current interests leaning more towards non-com/civilian miniatures and particularly robots, I decided to rebase these models, add a layer of highlighting to most of them and add a tweak here and there and re-varnish.
The sculpting is a little crude and they wont win prizes for painting, but the figures are undeniably charming. The colours also have a nice Futurama/Mega City One/Raygun Gothic feel. I can see these units getting a lot of use in Judge Dredd games both as non-coms and also potentially as part of a Renegade Robot gang. It was surprisingly satisfying to go back to these fun little models and to bring them up a decent standard for gaming with.
The temptation to field a self aware vacuum cleaner as a Don-bot in the robot mob has lots of appeal. I particularly like the goofy French Maid-bot that presumably calls him “Sugah” while massaging his… dust bag? Nozzle? Power cord? No matter what I say it sounds smutty.

Two variations of the same named character from the Sedition Wars game, painted fairly quickly in order to fit in with the rest of my sci-fi Construction Crew. Continue reading

I took WIP photos while painting one of the second batch of Sci-Fi Construction Crew models last week. I did that in order to illustrate how I went about the process in a subsequent blog post, this post in fact.

This evenings presentation is a handful of robots – seventy-five percent of which are pop-culture types – to add to my recent sci-fi civilian Construction Crew. It is more of Demolition Crew at this point. Continue reading

Who builds all of those miniature future utopian/dystopian/pre-apocalyptic buildings? These rapidly painted guys, that’s who. Continue reading

Renton here is a DreadBall coach. The figure may be a Kickstarter exclusive, but I am not sure. Its a modified version of the Corporation Major-General model released last year, with weapons removed and a few things altered/added (a mobile device, a pointing hand and a new head). Continue reading
