SHM Range and Litko

I am at the middle of my rebasing progress, and I want to share some results with you :) On the photo above you can see three SHM Range alien creatures: Thing from Abyss, Tentacled Brain Monster and Avarep Cobra. All figures are based on 1.5mm thick Clear Acrylic bases from Litko.

Here you can see Tentacled Brain Monster and Merc with assault rifle from Laserburn range painted in Australian cmouflage. I glued each tentacle to the base using blob of superglue. While glue was wet, I added small amount of sand around tentacles. Merc was based on 15mm wide base and creature on 30mm base.

The same Merc with Avarep Cobra. Looking like a furry Terran snake the Avarep is a dangerous foe indeed. Capable of near flight by coiled jumping, its beak is as hard as iron. Found on many worlds. There are hundreds of Avarep Cobra species, each have its own fur and skin colour.

Amazing BTR from Armies Army

Keith Armstrong have sended me .STL file of amazing near future BTR that going to be available from Armies Army. I imported STL into 3ds Max to help render some angled shots :) Cant wait for this beauty to be printed and sold. Armies Army sells great near future figures, and I am advising you to buy some :)



PS. Please note that I only rendered this vehicle and I am not its modeller :)

I want to share render of AT-ST I made. Please bear in mind that this is a STUDENT MODEL, so I simplified some elements because of lack of time.

Sharing photo of painted Thing from Abyss monster from SHM Range. One of my earliest 15mm sculptures :)

New SHM Range alien creatures from 15mm.co.uk

Four new alien creatures are available from 15mm.co.uk! They are part of famous SHM Range for aspiring sculptors who do not afraid to experiment. SHM Range its a place a where you can find very weird and unique miniatures. :)

Three of these little creatures are inhabitants of swamps or or prehistoric worlds and the fourth creature came from horror realm :)


SHM58 Mollusca – A small primitive creature with lots of skin folds. 10mm long.  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 a herbivore or eat small crabs and shells.  Or it attacks the legs of colonists!

SHM59 Swamper - This is creature is from a swamp planet. Its body has a length of 12mm. Swampers have very tasty meat and can be raised as livestock by farmers but they can escape and cause havoc.

SHM60 Armoured Swamper - This is a Swamper subspecies, covered in light scale armour. Body length 10mm. 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 it is under attack it can dig itself in mud leaving only armoured back above mud level. A Potential foe for colonists.


Here are two Swamper species side by side.

Typical Swamper farm look very close to these rice fields, but with fences, to prevent Swampers from escape.

SHM61 Collective Mind Monster - This is a creature of nightmares lurking in the shadows. Psychic powers and multiple minds sharing one over aweing brain. Controlling a host of drones or the result of radiation and gene wars a real horror! Approx 12mm wide without tentacles.
