Spacelords

Several of you, dear readers, may be well aware of the (mostly) excellent line of miniatures that formed the Metal Magic Spacelords line. Some of them have been available, quietly, from em4 miniatures for quite a while. Indeed, it's where my brilliant Phagon beastmen came from not too many weeks back. Doug at em4 is a good chap to trade with, by the way, so give him all the custom you can... not least because he's gradually bringing back the rest of the line! Woo-hoo!

There's a pretty lively and enthusiastic thread running over on the LAF where Doug is taking votes on the next codes to reintroduce. Vote for your favourites to get them made again! I'm particularly hopeful that some of the S.E.C.S. troopers make it back into the lead as they may be just the ticket to solve my RT imperial guard conundrum...

I'll play you out with some of the fabulous pictures that Viruz from the Metal Magic Forum has kindly made available from the collection of images that he and others have painstakingly built up over the years. If you want higher resolution pictures, you'll just need to join that forum as well!








Enjoy!
Rab

    1. There's no such thing as too many projects, silly boy!

      Did I tell you I just bought a dozen or so 32mm ancient Greeks and skeletons for some "Jason and the Argonauts" skirmish gaming? And that's without the orc and goblin army that keeps showing up in dribs an drabs from the internet, and the 54mm gladiators I keep meaning to put together, and and and and ....... ;)

  2. Good to see you catching the Spacelords bug too, Rab. You might (or might not) be aware that I'm currently painting my way through a bit of my collection. Currently on the table is a handful of S.E.C.S dudes, out of which only one have been finished so far:

    Also some other various mixed Spacelords:

    1. I think it was Pil's Phagon beastmen that got me onto Spacelords in the first place, but it was Captain Morley that got me back on the hunt! Lovely brushwork :)

  3. Metal magic minis were great. It's a real shame that they weren't marketed well enough when they were first released, they may still be around otherwise.

    1. Agreed - I came to an appreciation about six months two late...
