Blue Star renforcements.

Hello and Welcome back, 

Blue Star Corporation is a Dvarg mining corporation. They have just had some renforcements, because some of those rocks can get really aggressive. 

This lot are Space Dwarves by BMT3D which fit the oldhammer Squat athestic nicely. They are meral cast from 3D prints. Looking closely you can see the filiament lines on the casts. 

They all are from BMT3D apart from this guy, who is a classic 40K olhammer age Squat. The arms were missing and were replaced by Wargames Atlantic Einhenjar arms. 

Thanks for looking,

Take Care Out There.

Starport Scum #13

Hello and welcome back.

It's time for another installment of Star Port Scum. I can't believe we are up to the 13th episode. 

Dallas Shrimpton, the bounty hunter, comes from the frontier world of Wolfden. He hunts down people or GELFs for the right fee and really likes the "dead" part of 'Dead or Alive' bounty.

Fay Jaegir is an ex-military bounty hunter working wherever the contracts take her. Her military background has given her discipline and training, which helps her hunt down bounties.

Sly is a typical example of star port scum, born and raised in a space station, joined a lower decks gang and eventually skipped out as a stowaway. He now seeks employment as crew muscle. A little part of him fancies joining a pirate crew.

Sparkz is an augmented Cyborg. No one knows where he is from or how he became augmented. Like many 'borgs, once he had one augmentation, he needed more. Sparkz looks for work as a ship's technical officer; his augmentations give him an edge when dealing with technology and computers. 

Ted Cryptkey used to be a security crewman on an Outrim Confederacy warship. As one of the few to see the galaxy beyond the Outrim systems, he found himself (like other Spacers) treated with suspicion by those he left to defend. Cryptkey was unhappy stuck on the backward-looking planets, being treated with suspicion, and wanted to see more of the galaxy. He left on the first ship that visited (it was a bit of a wait) and now hangs around space ports looking to sign on to a crew. He doesn't care where he is going as long as it is beyond the Outrim systems.

All figures are metal, from the Pages range by BMT3D.

Thanks for looking, take care out there.

Mercenaries by BMT3D

Hello and Welcome back,

I am on a roll with keeping on top of the Blog posts and productivity. 

Mercenaries are a common sight across frontier space. They are hired usually as a short term solution to protect assets, VIPs or to perform certain tasks that their employers want to deny. Mercenaries have a reputation for ruthlessness and sometimes a lack of loyalty. 

On worlds like Maddans world, they are often hired to deal with bandits. Some colonies and corporations also employ them to do their dirty work such as taking control of other (usually independent) mining settlements. 

The Maddans Independent Mining Corporation is now wealthy enough from mining the Ultesium ore to be able to employ mercenaries to protect their mines from Corporate or foreign takeover. 

With the exception of the Mech, these figures are a limited run by BMT3D and are inspired by some of the art work in the orginal 40K RT art work. They have that old school vibe that I like.

Mercenaries don't just arrive as infantry. Some free lance mercenaries bring big heavy Mech suits, which disappear from their orignal detachment usually during an intense battle. Such as the "Ursa". This walking tank soaks up damage and sports four rapid fire heavy machine guns. The Ursa's arsenal is powerful enough to take on lightly armoured opponents, swarms, hordes of GELFs and fast moving targets such as jetbikes, speeders and aircraft. 

Ursa is a Bear mech from the Borderlands box set.

Starport Scum #10 Ladies Night

Hello and Welcome back,

Time for another installment of Starport Scum. I can't believe we have had 10 of these! In this episode, it's all about the ladies. Hence the tag line - Ladies Night. Cue music!

Finished dancing? If that's what it was? On with the show. 

Bounty Hunter's are a common sight around the frontier Spaceports, on the trail of fugitives or other targets. Bounty Hunters use code names rather than their real names to protect themselves from future repercussions. This figure is a limited run bounty hunter by BMT3D and is inspired by some of the art work in the orginal 40K RT art work. 

The Moggi Sisters are "splicers", using Human Gene Manipulation (HGM).They have some feline like features. They thought it would make them more attractive. Still the improved hearing and retractable claws prove useful in their role as bodyguards to wealthy Patrons touring Frontier Space. These figures are limited run figures by BMT3D.

Orbital Starports often see crew wandering about in space suits. Sometimes the crew or station personnel have to go out to effect repairs on their ships or station. Or occasionally as a punishment, sent to give the outside a fresh coat of paint. The figure is Alice the Astronaut by Bad Squiddo miniatures.

Thanks for reading and stay safe out there.
