It appears I joined here about 7 years ago but never posted until this week!
I think, it was due to nerves.
I am really quite thin skinned and some of the rumours about here had me worried about negative comments on my stuff.
I have issues which can get me down at times too, but looking around I see lots of familiar faces so I have figured you lot can't be that bad.
Right then..
I am very much into 6mm stuff.
Bit niche within the hobby but hey..
I am also into sci-fi, also a bit niche.
I am also furthermore into 6mm sci-fi skirmish.
I reckon that is as niche as you can get...?
So my stuff will not be to everyone's (anyones?) taste.
It is however my goal/aim/mission to show people that 6mm models can have detail, can look good painted and is a viable;e 'scale' for skirmish games.
I could rabbit on even more but have decided to post some random pictures of my 6mm sci-fi skirmish, all based for my FREE sci-fi skirmish rules; KR 16 to try and tempt you into 6mm sci-fi skirmish.
THE REGIONAL DEFENCE FORCE
Alpha Squad
Bravo Squad
Charlie Squad
Delta Squad
MS1 Pathmaster
RDF Base
JUNKER DRILLING STATION
Scratch Built Objective
ANVIL GATE
JUNKER INSURGENT TRUCKS
Here are all 4, some shiny and done proper and some not so shiny and done the Junker way.
I have managed to make myself a little scenery piece.
It uses metal models, resin models and printed models.
It is Steve Chang's broadcasting studio for his independent TV channel; KR TV.
The tower is from Brigade Models and is printed in WSF.
WSF is for most things appallingly bad due to its very rough finish, however for things like corroded masts, it looks just right.
It is easy to get a pitted rusted look.
(The ladder is an accessory from a train model, N gauge I think)
Steve's skimmer is from C in C.
I have painted it up using a different style to how I normally do.
I have gone for exaggerated almost comic book style highlighting.
I do like the look but am not sure it fits with my overall style.
The skimmer is the Skywalker model made by MCP (Mazda Consumer Products.)
We can see that Steve has left it on as it is still hovering.
The actual building is my small Junker Dwelling.
Ideal as a simple structure for out in the badlands away from prying eyes.
Stand by for more...

Updated the KR TV station:
Restoring a Bullfrog amphibious 4x4 back to its civilian state.
The Junker Insurgents use the Bullfrog pick up and convert it using their techie know-how into military vehicles:
However the master model was designed as the civilian version first, as such it is dead easy to convert it back to its civilian state.
First get the 2 parts, chop off the support jack.
Then file off the greebles.
This takes about 60 seconds or so.
Then stick it in place and prime, you are good to go!
This will be one of many I shall be converting.
Having now unconverted the truck back to its original state, it is time to convert it again!
I have decided to make the Roller, the vehicle one of the characters from my KR 16 background rides around in.
I added plenty of stowage, a spare wheel on the back.
A rambar on the front, those Razorhounds are tough critters, and of course a Dakka Dakka on the roof.
It is dirty, battered and bruised, but then when you live in the Badlands outside the Liao River Valley, what would you expect..
Doc, the man that drives the above pick-up.
That will do for now I reckon...
