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.

Full Thrust Convoy TQX-5551: Outbound for the Frontier at last

After a week of showcasing the ships in this convoy in smaller lots, we've finally got some big full-group shots.
 
 
Total of 30 ships plus a pair of small cutters which can be seen docked to two of the ships as well as being their own seperate models.

 
Fourteen civilian ships in a bunch of different styles, fourteen escort warships of varying sizes, a big UNSC science ship that kind of straddles the line between civilian and military, and a huge auxiliary warship built off a converted military fleet tender.
 
Most models are from Ground Zero Games' Full Thrust range, with a few Brigade Models and Silent Death minis mixed in.  Includes the following:
 
2 NAC Troutbridge frigates (GZG)
1 NAC Fort Carstairs auxiliary warship (converted GZG fleet tender)
2 New Israeli Tzayad destroyers (GZG)
2 ScanFed Hrafn frigates (GZG)
2 Free Cal-Tex Austin destroyers (GZG)
1 Japanese Soyokaze destroyer (GZG)
2 Japanese Ashigaru frigates (GZG)
1 Japanese Shoya sensor picket (GZG)
1 UNSC Mountain light cruiser (GZG)
2 UNSC Lake destroyer (GZG)
1 UNSC Deep Space Explorer (converted GZG Visionary explorer)
5 Tradewind and Tradewind 2 cargo ships (GZG, one of each variant)
1 Olympus passenger ship (GZG)
1 Kestrel free trader (GZG)
2 Luxury space yachts (GZG, one lightly converted)
1 Merino livestock transport (GZG)
1 Aquarius liquid transport (Brigade)
1 Solar Mariner far trader (Brigade)
1 Sentry guradship (Silent Death)
2 little cutters on separate flight bases (GZG 15mm Stargrunt figs)

Full Thrust New Anglian Coalition Gallery

Still more GZG miniatures as I continue to work through the Full Thrust fleets.  This time we're showcasing some of the Full Thrust NAC ships, both newer sculpts and a few of the older ones.  These were mostly painted back in 2013 and most but not all of the ships are here - no heavier capital ships, for example.  The unpainted new sculpt figs are available on the GZG web store here:
 
 



















 
A more recent commission job with a mix of both old and new sculpts.
