Space Station Zero: Mission Zero

 I'm finally ready to kick off my first Space Station Zero campaign! Space Station Zero is a solo/co-op dungeon crawler rules set by indi games studio Snarling Badger Studios. 

Here are my intrepid adventurers, the crew of the Exploration Pinnace Fitzcorraldo: 

From left to right: Captain Dirk Zoroaster, Science Officer Babs Mendeb, Pilot Ace Venturi, Chief Engineer Earl MacRae, The Doctor, and Security specialists Abel and Seamen.

All these dudes are from the Elucidian Starstrider Kill Team, except for the Captain, who is an Imperial Navy Breacher, and the Engineer, who is from a 40k command personalities pack. 

The team will be exploring a giant ancient alien space station. I happen to have space station/space ship terrain, so I'm starting with that: 

I've been told though that this set is not well-suited for this game, so we'll see. I may revert to more generic sci-fi scatter in future games. 

Warcrow - the Adventure Begins Again

So it's time for my annual foray into Warcrow Adventures, Corvus Belli's tabletop Dungeon Crawler. This time though I plan on trying the skirmish game as well, so I am doubly motivated to get some paint on some dudes! 

I started by zhuzzing up the characters I painted last year for my first delve. They are cast in boardgame plastic, so the details are softer than usual, which does my casual style no favors. But I tried to compensate with some bold highlight strokes, while maintaining as much rich saturation as I could manage. The result, in my biased opinion, is "not bad"... 

A Dozen More Blood Angels

Another squad of Death Guard, some golden Terminators, a Justiciar and a Space Marine Lieutenant. 

 

The Last of the Blood Angels - for now

Here is the final tranche of this year's Blood Angels commission. What a ride! 

Same format, new device - Experimental Moon Knight

(I haven't been posting as much because the extra step of transferring photos to my desktop is aggravating, and formatting has been weird on my handheld. Let's see if this post works!)

Here's  my Moon Knight from Marvel Crisis Protocol. I experimented with extreme lighting effects, and am a bit underwhelmed by the result. Still, it's good practice for next time. 

Even more Blood Angels!

A Blood Angels Sanguinary Priest, a couple of Assassins, some Vanguards and a Scout Squad. 

Might this be the last of them? We shall see!

Marvel Crisis Protocol: A Spider-Foes Commission

Here's the first half of a Marvel's Spider Foes commission I've been working on. It's been a great opportunity to put paint on some minis I don't have in my collection yet!
