Full Thrust Federal Stats Europa Gallery

Another GZG miniatures gallery today, this time showcasing some of the current Full Thrust FSE ships.  These were painted back in 2014 and most but not all of the ships are here - no carriers, for example.  The unpainted figs are available on the GZG web store here:

Gallery: Stargrunt 15mm New Anglian Coalition, Drones, and Grav-Sled Miniatures

Today's post is a gallery showcase of some of Ground Zero Games' NAC light infantry alongside their early grav-sled style vehicles.
 
 
These are all available on the GZG web store here:
 
 
and here:
 

 
The paint jobs and photography date back to 2012, but they should still show the quality of the sculpts adequately.

 
There are also a few drones in the mix, which can be bought here:
 

 
The grav-sleds are all supported on roofing nails, which have been embedded in masses of Magicsculpt putty, both on the base and within the vehicle hulls.

 
These are all-metal models so they call for a pretty sturdy flight post.

 
These days I'd probably use the Hawk/TTC flight widgets and flight posts, but they didn't exist back then.

 
As usual for GZG vehicles these come with multiple main weapon options. 

 
I've been slowly tapping the spare guns for conversions and kitbashes for years now.

 
Getting low at last, but still not quite out.

 
Still getting close to time for another big grav vehicle order, methinks.

 
Really like the casualty and medic figures in this range.

 
The NAC got a better selection of those than most, which may indicate they weren't the biggest sellers ever. 

 
Think I had to glue the turrets in place on these due to barrel weight, but I might be misremembering.

 
Seven or eight years is a long time even at my age. 

 
These sculpts still hold up well IMO, although I suspect they'll get a 3D-mastered revision at some point.

 
Some more drones and a team of Cyclops battle suits here.
 
 
These guys could be manned light mecha or wholly robotic.

 
At one point the spider drones were one of the best selling 15mm figs GZG made.

 
Might still be the case, they're certainly quite versatile.

 
The Cyclops walkers can also scale jump to 28mm power armor pretty easily.

 
They're mounted here on 1" washers IIRC.

 
They're three-piece models with separate arms.

Down Memory Lane: Four-Color Figures Superfigs Miniatures Gallery

Going way back to 2011-2012 today with a gallery post showing off some of Four-Color Figures' Superfigs range, available through Old Glory's webstore here:
 
 
Despite what it says on the store, these are large 28mm scale, not 25mm.

GUARD Power Armor
1.25" washer bases here, I believe.  These figs stand taller than the average human.



Assassin Acolytes Henchmen
The figs with archaic weapons are in pack 1, the silenced firearms are in pack 2.
Mounted on their integral bases here.
 










 
Alien Host Omega Shocktroops
Mounted on 40mm GW bases here.
 










 
Alien Host Alpha Shocktroops
Mounted on GW 40mm bases here.
 










 
Mecha-Samurai Henchmen
1.25" washer bases if I remember correctly.
 


 
 






 
The Ego-Bot
Again, on a GW 40mm base.





 
Battering Ram
VOR 50mm base - he's a big boy, easily as heavy as a Growler Bull.





 
Krong the Mighty
Again, a VOR 50mm base.
