This is a pretty neat scheme that could be replicated nicely across your entire crew. Adding in that camouflage detail is certainly a trick that we're going to use on more of our miniatures!
How are you going to paint your Stargrave miniatures?

Nice models and the scheme especially the lenses look great
Second AND third…. (yes, I am that annoying today…)
Also, why isn’t the barrel drilled? *g*
’cause there’s no drill sergeant ?
ye took ma jaaab!
They are very nice models I just finished painting 5 of them as well. I did find them a little difficult to paint in all the gaps. I would suggest not gluing the arms in but just using blue tack so you can paint the body so the overlapping arms dont restrict access
Love the Camo pattern on the Fatigues
I’ve done five of these so far (they’ll dual-purpose for Stargrave and Five Parsecs) and will do five more as military. The remaining 10 I’ll do as cops/corporate security. I like the posing you’ve done (will steal).
A man after my own heart – Five Parsecs AND Stargrave. This is why I love mini agnostic games AND multi-part, mix-and-match plastic kits.
I stumbled across Five Parsecs while scouring YouTube for Stargrave content. The book arrived yesterday and looks sweet. The nice thing is the hobby effort overlaps perfectly.
Pink, we need more pink.
@johnlyons where did you get the paint pens? They look useful.
Sets I saw on amazon and ebay were bit too bright for miniature usage.
I get a very blakes 7/dalek trooper vibe from these
Nice scheme, a lot of greys but still visually interesting.
Need to try out those pens!
I wasn’t fond of the look of the troopers, to be honest. Now,you got me thinking…
Maybe I could do with a mini’or two…
Sometimes all it needs is to see someone else’s take on how to tackle a model. I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve initially looked at a mini and gone “meh”, only to have someone either tweak/kitbash it or just paint it up in an unusual way to make me do a “Woah!” double-take and punish my wallet some more.
What!!!! John!!! I haven’t seen him in ages. Great to see he’s back.
I always like his tutorials.
he does a tutorial every other week, you’ve just not been paying attention 😉
great paint job.
I find the camo technique very interesting.
I will definitely take a look at these pens and whether there is a difference in point thickness in our art shop.
?? ??
I actually am painting models for stargrave so I could defo use some of these tips. Cheers John
Love the colours, love the mini. The mini reminds me of Jin-Roh
Great painting tutorial
It looks like a couple of those paint pens may be a useful addition to add to my arsenal of hobby tools.
Nice finish for a seemingly plain model
That looks like one trooper you don’t want to come across. Nice dark paint scheme!
this tutorial has some great tips, just like the Greatest movie ever made, if you ever beat up on the street remember to find a homeless karate master to train you to beat up hobos and junkies.
Contrast over the visor looks way better than I anticipated
Enjoyed this and model looks really smart. Now do 9 more…
Nice look on optics
I love the camo! The red does make it pop
Nice look on the gun optics
