New Troops & Heroes Rendered For Fallen Frontiers
June 19, 2015 by brennon
The folks behind Fallen Frontiers have put together another big set of renders showing off some of the heroes and troopers of their Sci-Fi game. As well as the sword wielding Bianca Carlsson there are the Ares Hyperion Armour and Hank "Operator 323" leading them into battle...
Bianca Carlsson
First up we have the deadly blademaster known as Bianca Carlsson who you can see below with her katana like swords held out offering you to come and have a go if you think you're hard enough...
As you can see she is looking rather sleek and lithe in her armour and even able to sport those chunky shoulder pads making sure that it's in keeping with that heroic Sci-Fi feel. A pretty awesome model although it would also be fun to see her in a more action packed pose, maybe swinging those swords around.
Ares Hyperion Armour
Talking of big heroic-style Sci-Fi armour see what you think of the Hyperion Armour below which is very front heavy it seems. I guess their remit is to keep pushing forwards and so they need all that really heavy armour on their front. That's emphasised even more with Hank and his hammer.
Overall I think that things are coming together very nicely for Fallen Frontiers and their Beta Rules are just around the corner too. If you keep an eye on their website then you might have a chance to get stuck in and see how it all plays soon.
Which models are your favourites from Fallen Frontiers?

Looks cool. Kinda wish they didn’t go with the crotch tabards though. Kills the scifi vibe for me and nearly impossible to remove.
Agreed. Also not thrilled with the pair of soup cans the female trooper has… and don’t get me started on sci-fi melee weapons.
Those look really promising.
Why does armour on a female character always equate to “titanium bikini”? It annoys me as I know it can be a huge turn off for women who are looking at the hobby as well as making us all look like dorky men who’re involved in the hobby. 🙁
I would highly recommend you check out the Dice Bag Lady and her range of believable female miniatures. I have the same frustrations as you regarding the way a lot of companies choose to model their female characters. But Annie’s range is fantastic and not a titanium bikini in sight 🙂
