Robots!

Had a little painting session yesterday and managed to finish these 5 old Laserburn robots. Really simple colour scheme made up of vallejo elfic flesh, gory red and black. Used a little bit of steel grey on the small bots laser and arm to finish them off.




The two humaniod types were converted a while back. One given a tube for a right arm the other a bit of scrap lead for a rough blade. The there prongs on the left arm were made by snapping the existing lower arm off and gluing it back on the other way around. Some other bits of scrap metal were added to this arm to make the join stronger.

The little robots turned out pretty nice.  I avoided trying to pick out the little circles around the mid-section painting this area a flat colour which looks ok. I've started painting my floating bots in the same colour scheme so could be the start of a little robot force.

  1. Nice color scheme for both sets of Bots. Plus the conversion work shows a personal touch. The machines are very nicely done.

  2. Beautiful painting! I don't think the photos on the 15mm.co.uk website always do the laserburn minis justice... These robots look like really nice sculpts, but the site photos had led me to believe otherwise.
