Skags

Hello and Welcome back, 

Those of you familiar with the Borderlands Computer Game will have come across the Skags that are native to the world of Pandora. 

For those of you not familiar with the Flora and Forna of Pandora, the Skag is canine like alien creature with a three way hinged jaw. They are pack Hunters and are able to eat anything, vomiting up the things they can't digest. Skags are a constant threat to anyone wandering around Pandora on foot. 

These figures come from the Borderlands tabletop/ board game. They painted up really quickly using speed paints. It took The basing took longer than it did to paint them.

I am going to be using these Skags as a threat to the miners of Maddans world. They fit into the world's theme nicely.

Thanks for looking 

Take care out there.

Psychos!

Hello and Welcome Back!

Get ready for some crazy screaming, its psycho time! 

"Kill! Kill! KILL!! Ha HAA HAAA!!"

Here we have some psycho bandits the next episode of my 5 Parsecs campaign. Anyone familiar with the Borderlands Computer games, will know all about the Psychos.

 

"No One Kills my buddy but me!!"

 

The Psychos. These loons form the rank and file of the various Psycho Bandit gangs. 

"I wonder if I plant you into the ground, if you'll grow taller!"

 

The Psycho Badass. A huge brute who acts as the leader for psycho warbands.

 

"BOOM TIME!!"

 

A suicide psycho. These guys rush up holding a primed grenade blowing themselves up with it.

Captain Loops and the crew of the Problem Child are in for a surprise in their next mission. There are plenty more where these figures came from and offers me some scope for conversions. The figures are from the Borderlands boardgame which has quite a lot of figures and offers a good bang for your buck if you can find one a set cheaply.  I found mine on Amazon, I think the seller got bored of it laying on the shelf. The movie flopping probably didn’t help. The figures scale up okay with 28mm heroic or 32mm. 

Although I am using these figures for my Wild Galaxy games, they will be useful as Post Apocalyptic raiders. 

Thanks for looking and stay safe out there.
