Work is proceeding on various sci-fi greenskins at the moment. My current painting goal is to complete my Deadzone Marauder faction, but I have been using the opportunity to work on some of my other orkoids. I find that working on a variety of miniature styles while using the same palette helps to delay burnout.
I really like these plastic goblin miniatures. There are hobbyists out there that dont enjoy the oversized faces on Games Workshops orks and goblins, but I really enjoy painting them.

“Rainmaker” Class Ripper Suit
I have been painting greenskins over Xmas, with getting a force ready to play Deadzone being the main motivation. The first of these finished are these two heavily armoured “Ripper Suits” and two of the rank and file Commandos.

The O.C.P. Patriots (Irish DreadBall Champions) play defence versus the Zegema Beach Zephyrs (UK & Ireland Ultimate DreadBall Champions) at Thomond Park at some designated point in the future.
I am the current Irish DreadBall Champion. Mantic supplied me with this prize pitch as a rather nifty functional trophy.
The rigid one piece polycarbonate/aluminium laminate (at least, thats what I think its made out of) arrived yesterday along with a large box of miniatures as a prize for my UK & Ireland Ultimate DreadBall win a couple of weeks ago. I havent had a chance to play a game on the pitch yet but I hope to remedy that over the Xmas break.
Of minor note is the inclusion of “Thomond Park” on the pitch (top right in the ropey photo above). Thomond Park is a significant Irish rugby stadium that also hosts the Irish DreadBall Nationals, amusingly enough. To continue the entertainment value of winning a “sporting” event at Thomond, I asked Mantic to make sure that the stadiums name featured on the pitch. I havent the slightest interest in rugby, but many of my regular opponents do, so it adds another level of amusement to me being the champ of a “sport” crowned at Thomond 🙂

Epic / 6mm Blood Axe Stormboyz
“Raz” on the Lead Adventure Forum was working on some Epic Stormboyz, planning to add smoke plumes coming from the jump packs. I remembered that I had these guys packed away and decided to take a photo for reference. So I decided to put the photo up here. I think that they still look cool seventeen years later.
The photo is gigantic by the way, mostly because that way you can see the camo pattern that I painted on them back in 1997 🙂
