A tentative hop onto the 15mm Sci-fi grav-wagon
For the past 18 months or so I have been resisting the plunge into 15mm Sci-fi. Oh, but it has been hard! I love looking at all the new (and old) 15mm toys. And I drool. And dream. But I bushido-it knowing that the joys of new miniature binging and whim buying are a thing of the past (and perhaps hopefully a thing of the far-off future). However, this has its advantages. The biggest one being I'm forced to paint what I already own. So when I was painting up some of my Peter Pig Ak 47 helmeted infantry as 70's Soviet Motor Troops, I thought, wait a minute, these could also be Sci-fi Neo-Soviets! (I have a thing for all things Soviet.) What a revelation! Next I rummage through the garage and Huzzah!, I find my crazy Matchbox vehicles that I love but have always wondered what to do with them. Now I know! Phase One of 15mm Sci-Fi has begun! Stargrunt II here we go again!
