Space Truckers

 Last year I started working on some figures to play Stargrave with.  I managed to play one game before things started getting all lock-downy again.  With extra time at home I got interested in running a (then) new RPG called Those Dark Places which a rules-light industrial sci-fi game and thought these figures would be perfect, so I kept working on them.  After spending months slowly picking away at these figures the company that produced them are now releasing a game called Violent Dark that these will be folded into.

Okay.  So a lot of vague 'maybe this, maybe that' allusions to what I might want to use these figures for but why should you care about a theoretically random collection of figures?  Well.....

The crew of the Nostromo



Dallas and Kane



Brett and Parker



Ash and Lambert



Ripley and Jonesy



(I finally have a space cat in my collection!)

I would say if you're a fan of sci-fi horror (or just sci-fi....or just horror) you should definitely check out Black Site Studios collections.  They are very much a 21st century miniatures company as you have the option to either buy physical models from them, or STL files for those of you with 3D printers.

There is definitely a lot more Black Site Studios figures in my near future.  Keep watching this space, where incidentally; no one can hear you scream.
