Assault landings....Royal Commonwealth Marines......indeedy

I've made a 1:100 scale sci-fi hovercraft!

From ArmiesArmy blog:
////////////////////////////////////////////
Every Marine needs a good Beach Landing Assault vehicle and here is mine. The light assault hovercraft will come in different varieties due to its modular nature, with both a fully enclosed cabin and a open crewed cabin. Further examples will carry heavier weapon loads, APC's , Power Armor Troops and specialized commando raiders .

Nick Kondratov has done a great job of taking my design and modelling it, all whilst starting his new degree (best of luck Nick:))

I have a bunch of releases to get out of the way over the next month and then Ill have bunch of new items off to printing and casting.

thanks

Bogatyr - heavy tank of Russian Empire

Just finished Bogatyr heavy tank for Armies Army. Bogatyr is an epic hero from Slavic legends, similar to knight-errant.

The Bogatyr is a heavy armored tank of Russian Empire. It has a crew of 3 and armed with heavy gun located in automated unmanned turret + 2 remote controlled machine guns (same type as on Kurganets-40 MGS). Engine is located at front, crew in middle section and auto-loader in rear section. Like modern Israeli Merkava tank, Bogatyr have armored door at rear part of the hull to load the ammunition. By removing some of the ammo it is possible for Bogatyr to carry up to 5 passengers. 

Made Kurganets-40 APC for Armies Army :)

Just made Kurganets-40 APC for Russian Empire faction of Armies Army :) This is 3D model suitable for printing and casting in resin and metal.

In the Future Russian Empire faction took Kurganets-25 vehicle and made heavy modification by adding new armor, weapons and systems. APC and MGS variants have fully automated turrets.

Kurganets-25 is a REAL WORLD ultra modern prototype vehicle that is currently in development by Russian Federation to replace BMP fleet somewhere in 2015-2016 . So the idea with Russian Empire design is not to base their vehicles on real world Soviet designs, but on prototype Russian designs. That way RUSK and Russian Empire vehicles will look Russian but different.

All 4 roofs variants are separate and removable.

APC variant

MGS Variant 

Ambulance/Cargo vehicle variant

Command variant

Fully automated APC Turret

Mobile Gun System

15mm T1 Cunningham ( available for sale from QRF )

Four variants of 15mm T1 Cunningham are available for sale from Quick Reaction Force store.

Here are 3D renders of all 4 variants. From above to bottom:

T1 (1926) Cunningham (sloped turret, short gun, early hull)

T1E1 (1927) Cunningham (sloped turret, short gun, late hull with catwalks)

T1E2 (1929) Cunningham (cylindrical turret, short gun, late hull with catwalks)

T1E3 (1930) Cunningham (cylindrical turret, long gun, late hull with catwalks) – up gunned T1E2 modification

Please note, that T1 from first picture is a hybrid with the early war hull but late turret with long gun

Swedish S-Tank (The Stridsvagn 103)

I am proud to show you 15mm Swedish S-Tank or The Stridsvagn 103, that I finished at the beginning of December, but because of Christmas and New Year I found time to post it only now :)  

There should be a cupola MG, but I haven't unified this element yet. There are be 15 parts (actually its 14 unique parts, because two headlights are identical, so there should be be 14 parts on mold and 15 parts in a pack (I need to unify Machine Gun))

Swampers, Molusca and Collective Mind are RELEASED!

Two Swamper species, Molusca and Collective mind have been releases by 15mm.co.uk!

Flesh monster

Human faced helminth!

What an abomination I just sculpted!

Armored swamper

This is a Swamper subspecies, but covered in light scale armor. For moving this creature uses its tentacles and muscles on its belly. This is slow creature who eats plants and some small shelled creatures. This creature lives in swamps, and uses its scales for protection from surface creatures. If its under attack it can dig itself in mud leaveing only armored back above mud level.

Collective Mind.

This creature have very powerfull mind and have good psyonic power. I havent decided will each head have individual mind and they share one brain, or this creature have only one mind.

My recent greens.

The Tool

I use this tool for sculpting :)

Swamper

I want to share photos of primitive alien creature I made while ago. I was not sure about it, so I delayed this post. This is creature is from a swamp planet. Its body have length of 12mm and base length is 18mm. Swampers have very tasty meat and can be raised as livestock by farmers. I used 15mm Irregular Miniatures farmer on 19mm washer for size comparison.

Typical Swamper farm should look close to these rice fields, but with fences.

Mollusca

Just finished small primitive creature with lots of skin folds. To highlight the folds I blackwashed it before making photo. This small beast can be used as mollusca, larvae or creature from aqua world or can even be a sand-fish.  It may inhabit seabed, sea shores or can live in caves. It may be herbivore or eat small crabs and shells. 

Uglies!

Head with tongue and metal clips near right eye. Thick blood vessels should connect its head to body. When I finish its body , blood vessels should be plugged in holes on the back of its head.

Head with deformed mouth and loth of warts. There metal clits at the right side of its mouth.

Furry snake and gopher

Furry snake from cold planet. Click on picture to enlarge.

Six legged gopher. Click on picture to enlarge.

Slug

Space slug. Can be used as trader, civilian, barkeeper or philosopher. He is kind and not aggressive and looks better in "flesh" than on photo.

Aquatic monster

Alien leader

Inspiration alien from movie Critters 2

Big critter in metal and pained!
