Fan Service

Posted on 17/12/2014 by sho3box

Mosha, Smash, Basha and Ziggy explore D minor while waiting for Steev Tylork and the sound engineer to get back from rehab.

Yesterday Asslessman over on Leadplague posted up an image of a Rogue Trader themed civilian model that he has been working on. Its a fun conversion of an old Citadel fantasy drunk model with the addition of a Walkman and some 80s rocker stylings.

Of particular interest to me is that the retro futuristic rocker turns out to be the sectors number one fan of the galaxies least punctual glam/death/prog/speed metal band, Mushrööm Klöwd.

Posted on 10/12/2014 by sho3box

The Foaks get militant.

The follow up to the Lost in Translation game that I documented a little while ago, this installment features swarms of motile plant monsters, irradiated reptile-bugs and knee-high mechadendrite whipping cyborg monstrosities all competing for spaceshipwreck salvage.

GINGER: Cyber-Gyrinx

Posted on 06/12/2014 by sho3box

I like cats, I like robots and I like miniatures, ergo I present G.I.N.G.E.R (General Intelligent Nullification and Galactic Exploration Replicant)

GINGER is my entry into the “Future Wars Painting Club” on LAF. The model is a “Robo-Cat” from Crossover Miniatures. Its quite a titchy little thing.

Posted on 27/11/2014 by sho3box

I had a lot of fun with the Governor General of Sector Six Blog Crossover project earlier this year, so when an opportunity to engage in a slightly different sort of cross-blog project with Tales From the Maelstrom came up, I took it. Continue reading →

Pulp Alley/Antares weekend.

Posted on 17/11/2014 by sho3box

Its a Space Santa off!

I spent last weekend playing toy soldiers with Just John. The games ended up having a somewhat festive (a science fantasy, post-apocalyptic, 2000AD, WWI, mash-up sort of festive) theme. Some photos of the two Pulp Alley and single Beyond the Gates of Antares games that we played follow. Continue reading →

Posted on 11/11/2014 by sho3box

I know that November 11th is a bit on the early side for this, but regardless, its more or less time for a peculiar piece of Citadel history, a Space Santa from 1985. Continue reading →
