I am thinking of painting some more miniatures similar to this one and make a band of adventurers for my skirmishes. Do you know of any modern sculpted miniatures with Old School flavour that can be used for Laserburn or RT games?

San Holo, space smuggler
In a Laserburn / Rogue Trader nostalgic mood I grabbed this miniature I had around from long ago and painted it. I like how it turned out, and I must say it looks better in the flesh than in these crappy pictures.

Looks good, sir! I too have been shopping for rag tag adventurers for some Rogue Trader/ Inquisitor use. Reaper Chronoscope and Heresy Miniatures had some fun figures - plenty of smuggler/ ship crew types at Heresy.
ReplyDeleteThank you Ragsta. I know Reaper and Heresy but I have to check them again.
DeleteGreat job!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jay, and Merry Christmas!
DeleteIf you can find some the old Cobalt 1 range has some good Laserburn style figures.
ReplyDeleteMaybe is what I could be looking for. The problem is where to find some of them.
DeleteBlackhat Miniatures have the Cobalt-1 range http://www.blackhat.co.uk/product-category/28mm-miniatures/ but the humans are large 28mm
DeleteThank you David, I like large miniatures so no problem
DeleteMoonraker Miniatures have re-released this older style figure line. They are possibly closer to 28mm than 25mm but worth a look. http://moonrakerminiatures.com/index.html
ReplyDeleteI prefer 28 to 25mm. As I see, Moonraker has the same as Forlorn Hope or EM4. I already have most of those old Copplestone's miniatures. Actually, the next one to get painted is one of them.
DeleteCheers,
Nice work - he looks good. Black Hat Miniatures sells Cobalt 1 stuff.
ReplyDeleteYes! I've already found it out last night with Google, but I cannot see pics of the miniatures in their shop. I cannot understand how is possible to sell stuff without pictures...
DeleteIf you click on the grey boxes the pictures load up, although some of the packs don't have any photos. The mercenaries would be very good as imperial troopers or black guard. The heavy armour spacesuits figures would also make excellent Laserburn power armoured troops. Check out the merchants, rebels and characters too.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to more retro painting soon.
Cheers
Jim
Oh I didn't know that! Thank you, I'll check it out.
DeleteCheers,
Well done! I quite like Alternative Armies' Ion Age range at: http://theionage.com/
ReplyDeleteThanks my friend. Yes, Altenative is another good option I hadn't thought of.
DeleteNice. In a similar bout of nostalgia I recently picked up some Wargames Foundry sci fi ganger types. Worth a look for some fun themed crews...
ReplyDeleteYes, its Street Violence range is really nice, especially its chicks.
ReplyDeleteCheers
