The Aliens are here!

I finished painting my Aliens last night.

They are based on the Area 51 Aliens.



They have got a little run-about flying saucer:


Their current mission is to collect samples:


I have already got a human force to fight them (mainly armed with 1950s and 1960s equipment), but hope to put together a force of US Marines and M48 tanks - this is, afterall, what they always fight in the movies!

I agree. A couple of Patton tanks along with the Army Jeeps and a platoon of 50's era soldiers would set the stage for a classic battle scene.

The invasion force is looking good!

agg79 - Yes, mustn't forget the jeeps with .50 cal MGs!

Go Aliens Go!

Hope you can find a tripod walker for the aliens. That would be awesome!

A walker would be great - I am currently looking for something to make the Mother Ship out of - a saucepan lid or something...

"We are not alone." Um, well you certainly aren't. How cool are they? Trouble is, the drudge in me keeps whispering they must prove a bugger to dust.. (Sorry, I'll just fetch me duster and go, eh?)

Rock Chef said...

Shrinky - they tend to live in boxes, so don't gather much dust. But you are right, dusty figures are a bugger to clean...
