Just a Few WIP pictures for my Yuzzem crew.

Spent the night lopping off arms and heads and repositioning them creating whole new looks, leaving me with 2 new groups.




. Set 2, Trooper with rifle, a Hero with a plasma fist/club, and a heavy weapons trooper with missile launcher.

. Set 3 a mechanic with a giant Wrench, a Salvager worker carrying a pipe, and one twisting to the side.

Later I need to do some gap filling, adding some hands and re sculpting new fur. onward and upward.

New Alien Ship's crew




The Start of a new alien ship’s crew.
I started with the Wiz Kid Star Wars figure of a Yuzzem, bear like race and a pretty cool figure as is.

This is the finished figure after a repaint.




I did the first one without any additions to see how it would paint up (being the plastic bendy stuff they make them out of). I had repainted one clix figure before(see my kid zombie hunters) and I like how it turned out so I thought I would try again. He turned out ok if I don’t say so myself so I bought some more to do a Crew (well I bought like 20 of them) and at less than a dollar a piece how can you go wrong.



Now for the crew I did not want all the same look so I reworked the first set of five, cutting off arms and repositioning them added new weapons, scars, closing the mouths, just to add some variations. The Clixy figures are pretty soft and cut easily so that was not a problem. I then filled in some gaps with putty, re-sculpted some fur and there you have it 5 different (well different enough) figures. On the next set I will try the reposition a few heads and leg, we will see how that turns out.





Most of the alien weapons were made from GW bits and other part from my bit box.

The next set will have an Engineer/medic/ maybe a very heavy weapons trooper/ one carrying something? Who knows? Any suggestion would be appreciated
Thanks and I hope you like them.

3rd spacecraft (Zoot the bounty hunter)

Real name: Zoot Species: Cazeranian Call sign: Mr. Gray
“I had Flown into Mudd Eisley today in search of my lousy, stinking, brother in law who ran off with my share of the take for the last job, and when I find him this plasma fist is going right up his…well you get the idea” “Trust no one they will only stab you in the back, especially family they will stab you in the front”
(originaly written for the Dropship Horizon name the alien contest)


The figure is from Critical Mass Games mercenaries set
The ship is made once again out of old part from my bit boxes. The cockpit is part of a Tie fighter from the Starwars clix toys, the main body is an old Brut cologne bottle with the engine made from a GW paint bottle cap(as you can see) other bits added from old model kits

2nd of 4 ships I am working on for my space colony. An older model alien fighter bought on the cheap repaired and converted into another small colony transport ship. Able to transport small cargo and a small number of passengers and still fight is way out of any trouble.
This ship started out as a toy Battle Star Galactica Cylon raider, I added a bottom level along with a transport pod out of plastic card. For fun I added the cockpit and interior.

Messenger of the 42 messenger corps along with his messenger’s buggy.

Messenger of the 42 messenger corps along with his messenger’s buggy.

The 42nd messenger corps are well known for their daring in getting messages through and fast mostly due the diligent training of the members and their well trained Pyk pyks. But along with Pyk Pyks, the messenger corp. is fond of the Chwyrlia Fen, one Quar buggy. The Fen as it is often called is made mostly of engine and holds 1 Quar relatively uncomfortably, however what it gives up in comfort it gains in speed and ruggedness.









I have been busy making a few space craft for my 15mm space colony and bounty hunters. The 1st of 4 so far is a small bounty hunter/cargo ship. It is made from a few bits and bobs from my bit box with that main body being made from a Star Wars toy droid. Pretty cool what can be made from what you have laying around. 15mm figure is from GZG.
