Outpost Crew
The captain (What do you call the person in charge of an outpost?) is an older gentleman with a datapad and a charge pistol. I don't often use bright colors on weapons, but this one has a nice industrial look that distinguishes it from normal guns.
The security chief is a tough-looking lady with a beret and a carbine. She's the toughest remaining member of the crew, and it's her job to keep the others safe.
The technician with the cybernetic arm has a stubby SMG in one hand and a remote controller in the other. He's wearing a sweet ushanka.
Finally, another technician. She's frightened, unarmed, and in an awkward position, as she was hiding behind a stack of crates. Not a usual look for figures I paint up, but it follows the narrative.
Three of these (captain and both technicians) are using Wargames Atlantic Cannon Fodder bodies, which make for good jumpsuits. The security chief's body and all of the arms are from Stargrave sets. The scared technician and security chief have Stargrave heads, while the captain is from a renaissance set, and the ushanka head is from a Russian WWII set.
The jumpsuit is painted a base of Vallejo Extra Opaque Heavy Charcoal
(72.155). The gray portions are Vallejo Basalt Grey (70.869), and there
is some lighter gray on the zipper and other highlights with Ceramcoat
Rain Grey (02543).
