15mm Pan-Galactic Troopers

Just a quick project for this week...Khurusan's 15mm Pan-Galactic Troopers. Kind of remind me of the Outsider troops from X-Com: The Bureau. Enjoy!

Khurasan Vespulid

Here's a small project I completed over the weekend between shifts; Khurasan Miniature's 15mm Vespulid. The drones stand about 20mm tall, while the warriors are around 25-28mm tall - so they tower over the average 15mm human figure. The most time-consuming part of the project was mounting the "flying" drones on paper clip stands. I had to re-drill the mounting holes in each thorax because they were filled with flash. Other than that, they painted up quickly.

Quar Mercenaries: WIP "Henwen" Assault Gun

After cleaning out the last of my 15mm WW2 stuff, I came across an old Axis and Allies Italian M13/40 that was lacking a turret. Being suitably odd-looking, I pressed it into service with my Quar Mercs.

Using odd PSC parts I had left over, I added the StuG Gbarrel housing , StuH42 heavy barrel, some stowage, Panther side skirts, and a Panther hatch. I made the casemate top and twin-MG turret from plasticard and the muffler from the 1/76 Airfix Male tank.

Quar Mercenaries: WIP "Afanc" Superheavy Assault Gun

To start off my Quar Mercenary force for 15mm Sci-Fi gaming, I thought I'd share pics of the massive Super-heavy Assault Gun I converted from a 1/76 Airfix WW1 British "Male" tank. The kit itself was cheap ($10 shipped) and is actually pretty well scaled to 15mm (the 2 upper hatches and the rear hatch are both stock). 

For my Quar, I wanted a low-tech durable look, without being too primitive so I removed the sponson guns and rear carriage wheels, reconfigured the entire glacis plate to be sloped at a lower angle (as well as adding he massive 220mm gun barrel made from a flight stand and plasticard), added two mufflers from plasticard, a turbine exhaust fan and smoke launchers from the PSC Panther G kit, and a communcations array from plasticard and guitar string.

I added one of the based Quar infantry for scale. The Quar are pretty short next to a 15mm human but the "Afanc" is still pretty intimidating at over an inch tall and 4 inches long. Next up are two FOW TOG tanks I plan to convert to "Twrch Trwyth" Heavy IFVs. Enjoy!
