WIP: Khurasan 28mm 'Polecat'...

...yep - 28MM!  Scaled up directly from the very popular 15mm version the Polecat looks like a futuristic 'Hummer' and is designated for use as a command/utility vehicle.  Ideal vehicle for Heresy's new sci-fi troopers or Defiance Games Marines (and maybe their Germans when the're released) There is also an alternative turret which I forgot to photograph but will include in the next update.
A few pics of the top quality casting before applying a primer.







































WIP: Khurasan !5mm...

...Federation Medium Tank and Heavy APC. Tracked

lovely detail on excellent castings that require very minimal clean-up!



















Holidays over...

Khurasan MUULs

ok...where to start...Khurasan's new MUUL vehicles lovely little vehicles with many build options (detailed in a previous post) so here's some pics of the finished vehicles...
Grav (I made a base for this drive as I wanted to show it raised from the floor)



















































Who knew?

...I can actually paint 15mm miniatures reasonabley well!













I painted these to accompany Khurasan's MUULS for scale purposes (they're Khurasan Federal Troopers). Photos of all the variants to follow....but for now

Convoy...

...of Antenociti's 15mm NRF vehicles - the 'Zebu' and the 'Kabardin'.






and a couple of 15mm T-Pea 'Hunchbacks'








Lovely detail on all of these and top quality castings. WIP to follow...

WIP: Khurasan's 15mm 'Combat Drones'

...must be the smallest vehicles I've painted! I'm not sure how Jon intends to package them but they have one basic hull with four different drive systems - wheeled; tracked; legged and grav - and five payloads which fit on the rear  - three weapons stations (a plasma gun, a multiple missile launcher, and a rapid fire medium laser or MG); a cargo flatbed and a medical station (which I don't have as yet). Each of the drive systems have little locating lugs which fit into slots on the underside of the hull - very interchangeable and versatile!
Painting at the moment just consists of an airbrushed, basic camo finish (which at the moment is hiding a lot of nice detail not least of which is the droid eye built into its chassis rather like R2D2 poking out of the top of the X wing in the initial Star Wars series) that needs a little tidying-up before continuing. They have been painted in a modular fashion so I can  illustrate the available twenty (?) options nine of which are shown below. I'm painting my first ever 15mm figure this week so will use that to show scale on a later post.



























I also have some small, recon drones to paint which I'll show you on the next update...
