That's a great cohesive force. I love the lighting, gives it a nice alien feel.

Painted "grunt"drones (specialists, actually). These guys would deploy as a fire support group for a group of more "standard" infantry. Attachments:

Painted commander, alone. I wanted it to work as a jetbike commander, sort of unit, to go with the grav specialist drones and the grav APC - fast, fast, fast. Attachments:

Just wanted to add one last shot for size reference, and to show something other than the models to show that they're real. The reference model is a Rebel Mini's Earth Force Marine. From their own point of view, this battle group is part of a larger experimental attack force. The QTech (closest likely human language equivalent) are keeping their cards close to their chest as they probe frontier human forces for information. Essentially, they are doing the alien warfare version of poking an insect's nest to see what will come out, and then testing their hardware against whatever does. My major influences for these kitbashes, particularly for the grav drone carrier, are Yokoyama Kow, Kobayashi Makoto, and Masamune Shiro. The drone carrier (also functions as the commander model's ride… so probably an assault transport for the transport capacity) is largely from Gundam parts with some wire and epoxy putty. The gruntz are almost entirely kitbashed from " Granny West" bitz (various factions), and the commander i" s Heartbreaker, " WarZone" and Cell, " Ronin War plastic parts kitted around with epoxy putty and wire. Late, at this point, but I tried. Attachments:
