twisted moon's 2026

[twisted moon]

a bit of a slow start to the year, but i have been working on some sci-fi gubbins.



another staircase from blotz, and ammunition / toolbox from the goliath truck i painted last year, and some more walkways made from coffee stirrers, card and car body mesh. it wasn't until i'd finished my last turn of the 5pfh campaign that i recalled i'd made a couple previously, but i managed to find them again, so i now have six of the longer, thinner ones.



the shorter wider ones are designed to allow me to connect the stairs to the roofs of some (most?) of my buildings.



i also stopped procrastinating and got this tower done.



the structure has been sitting painted for some time, while i tried to decide what to turn it into.



i'm not absolutely certain what that is.



perhaps a communcations tower of some (almost certainly illicit) sort.



expect to see it in future games of 5pfh.

^Useful stuff, all. Hard to argue with stairs and walkways, and a nice tank/silo/tower is rarely out of place.

 

[twisted moon]

thank you.
connie and blythe, the boyl 2019 exclusive miniature.



painted up to hopefully complement both my kaiser- and anschlusszwerge.



she'll join lastro lupinthrall as a baggage guard.

i've now painted the null steersman, boyl 2018 event miniature.



a name tag will follow at some point (as it will for connie & blythe).



my version has been cashiered from the imperial navy and is now working at spanglish town uplift port.

He fits in well with the Colony 87 minis and looks a useful addition to the team.

 

[twisted moon]

thank you. he's quite a bit bigger than the colony 87, but then so is hermesind.
another tin can silo to add to the sci-fi scenery.



the sign is corex board with a (cosmetic) coffee stirrer frame.



the tap is a plastic bendy straw attached with a lump of milliput, and with a random (non-wargaming) plastic wheel from my bits box.



it's hard to see, but there's a hatch on the roof to allow the silo to be filled ...



... with everyone's favourite sci-fi soft drink.

 

[symphonicpoet]

Colony '87 is a bit on the slighter side. Love the bendy straw and the valve wheel on that! That's a lot of Slurm. Nobody drinks Choak anymore? In honor of the most successful local soft drink and Colony '87 I might have to make up a sign for '87-Up. Nice work!

 

[twisted moon]

some additions for my punks.



near future mercenaries from checkpoint miniatures (picked up in their january sale) and olivia neutron-bomb.



olivia is, of course, the 2017 boyl event miniatures, although a (perhaps not identical) resin printed alternative can be obtained from 3d kingdoms 'from the pages' range.
she's a threefer, as she's a contribution to femuary, and i've also posted in the show us your boyl models thread.

John Pickford’s BOYL sculpt is bit better IMHO.

 

[Michael Stockin]

Just out of curiosity, do we have a photo of John Pickford, or know his age?
I went to school with someone by that name...

For some reason, he is one of these still sculpting guys which... there appears to be
