Galaxy Defenders - Agent G-Droid - Complete

After another unplanned hiatus, I finally managed to finish some more minis.

This is Robocop Agent G-Droid from Galaxy Defenders.

I used the same technique I previously used in painting the Nexus.  However, I ended up slopping on the blue wash a bit too thickly which resulted in it pooling in certain areas.  oops.

Still, the key thing is that I have now finished painting all of my Galaxy Defenders minis!  Woot!

Galaxy Defenders - Xeno-Hunter - Complete

This is the Predator Xeno-Hunter from Galaxy Defenders.

I actually managed to finish this mini last week but never got around to taking the picture.  I really enjoyed painting this mini which was part of the reason that Agent Iron was sitting around with an unfinished base for so long.  In particular, I enjoyed painting the skin and think I did a good job with it.

As I had two of the mini's, I painted one of them with blue highlights and the other with red highlights.

Naturally, I had to take a picture of the Predator Xeno-Hunter together with Dutch Agent Iron.

Galaxy Defenders - Agent Iron - Complete

This is Dutch Agent Iron from Galaxy Defenders.

I've actually had him finished for a while but hadn't completed the base.  I finally finished the base so here is the completed Agent Iron.  Overall, I'm fairly happy with the paint job but have to admit that I really need more practice painting black armour. :)

Galaxy Defenders - Agent Silver - Complete

This is Ripley Agent Silver from Galaxy Defenders.

Still trying to find the right balance between quality and speed.  In some regards, I'm quite happy with how this mini came out.  I am trying to do less work on highlighting and relying on a wash for shading.  The result still looks decent from a tabletop perspective but I am keen to try speeding up some more.

I did try a little experiment by adding a little bit of blue to the shading.  The hope was to make the model complementary with the Xeno-Morph model (for obvious reasons!).  However, I'm not very happy with the result.  In particular, the shirt doesn't look very good with blue in the shade areas as it looks a little odd.  I managed to hide it partially in the photo but the actual mini itself looks a little odd.

For comparison, here is Agent Silver next to the Xeno-Morph.

Galaxy Defenders - Xeno-Morph - Complete

I'm finally painting again!

Just doing some rough tabletop quality painting as I now have a mountain of minis to get through.  I figure at this point that it's more important to get through them before I start trying new techniques etc.

Below is the alien Xeno-Morph from Galaxy Defenders.  This was one of the KS sculpts and is inspired by the classic Alien from the movies.  The mini itself is done with just drybrushing and a little bit of edge highlighting at the tail.

As you can see from the photo, it's been sitting around on my table for a while - such that it's covered with random hair and dust.  :(

Galaxy Defenders - Agent Chromium - Complete

Agent Chromium - which completes all the agents from the GD base set.  I still have some of the KS exclusives to go through but this does feel like a real milestone!

In particular, I'm really happy with how the face came out.  To start with, it's a great sculpt but I think I managed to imbue it with a level of intensity that I didn't get in some of my other minis.

Galaxy Defenders - Agent Thorium - Complete

Another completed GD hero mini!  Yay!

Below is Agent Thorium who has a completely different colour scheme to the other hero minis. I'm not actually sure why that is the case but even the official art has Thorium with a completely different scheme. I also tried to find some thin clear plastic so that I could add a "virtual screen" to his hand (the official art has him pressing some buttons on "something"). Unfortunately, I couldn't find anything and didn't want to spend money on it. Will try to keep an eye out in future.
