Venusians completed today, and just before any static grass was applied, I took a few photos. Just to see how they looked in their ‘ride’.
They came up ok in the end. Softer plastic miniatures like these, with less defined details, always feel to me more difficult to get that good finished look. I still think it’s my ‘I need lines to colour in up to’ level of painting skill.
In their unfinished Assault Barge. (Ignore the base in this one its all I had at hand.)
As I haven’t managed to match the infantry to the barge all that well. It does leave me thinking: What colour should the barge become so as to match the Infantry?
And lets not speak about how basing to match the table always looks like a fail on other surfaces…
When you don’t see those bases though… Not bad…
Ah, thats more like it…
Next time these hit the table it will be for a game of Rogue Stars.

Looking good I think! I think the barge is maybe going to look better lighter rather than darker, but you’ll know best! I still like the blend you’ve got between your craters and the ground mat! 🙂
