Scibor Sci-Fi Servants - Part 2




I've painted up my scibor sci-fi servants, I haven't got that much to add to the last post, only that I found even more defects whilst painting them, it's such a shame.  Maybe it is part of the nature of the material, but I'm fast going off resin!

As I said I was going to I mounted them on standard 40K bases not the nice scenic ones they came with.  Painted up the one holding the book has turned out to be my favorite.

Scibor Sci-Fi Servants

My first ever miniatures from scibor arrived today, a pack of 4 servants in a gothic sci-fi style very similar to what I'm used to with 40K.  The plan is to use them as a display retinue for my chapter master (who admittedly doesn't yet exist).  I like the styling here, although I do feel that the models are a tad short.  Another big plus is the fantastic scenic bases that come with them, so good I don't think I'm going to waste them on these figures!


The figures are made out of resin, which I don't seem to be having much luck with, like my finecast experiences 3 out of the 4 figures I recieved have serious bubble defects, as shown below.  The guy missing the side of his hood is particulary annoying.  I could return them, but frankly I can't be bothered.  Like finecast it leaves a nasty taste in the mouth after the purchase, and it's even more frustrating as the bits without bubbles are well cast and have superb detail.
