Prodos Games

Prodos once mentioned that they belong to Ilian faction so I guess we'll see some rules for them when Ilian is released this summer.

If you want more background, have a look at the Mutant Chronicles RPG main rulebook, it has some basic information about cable marionettes.

Those I base painted with beastial brown first. Then highlights with hobgoblin orange. And another highlight on the very exposures with bleached bone. After this paint the miniature looks quite weird first. But after a wash with beastial brown,black and terracotta mix looks good :)

Those look really good! Did you mix the blue and brown together or just drybrush the colors at different times?

And I agree, his minis are a bit bright, but it made an impression to think about lighting in some way to make them pop a little more.

Mixed them. 10% beastial brown, 40% moody blue, and 50% Kommando Khaki. Then, für the 2nd, more brighter layer highligts, I added more Khaki again. Afterwards the wash is 90% black and 10% brown

Indeed. I accidentally black washed some of my infants a bit too much and they appear too dark black.
The minis in the video you posted look very good. Very clean paint job it seems. The blue sheme looks cool. But I think a bit too much and too bright. Matter of taste of course but these have a mit "comical look" like this.
And the actual movie aliens were never blue anyways. Just appeard shiny and blue becaise of the lights on the set. The real aliens were more black with a bit brown.
Thats why I tried some middle way with mine and a bit blue and a bit brown.
Here are a few pics from the old forum, in case you didn´t see them before

The gloss varnish is also a matter of taste. The aliens are not really always super slimy. The props also apper matte sometimes. So I also think the middle way is best. I gave mine a thin silk matte cover and only the drone heads glossy
After silk matte varnish:

I painted mine with Citadel paints. But other brands will have similar colors too. I base painted them black. Then mixed moody blue and Kommando khaki for highlighting/dry brushing. And mixed in a bit more Kommando khaki for another, more brighter, highlight on some more "exposed areas."
Afterwards I gave them a wash with quite thin black again. Pay attention to not make them too dark!

Testing

I was wondering if there is a full list of model points also for the boardgame? I mean if you use the Infants and Stalkers from the box and also the addon Alien Queen and the Warriors, but only have the normal Marines from the box, the game balance will be unfair of course. I can Imagine if you have the Queen and the powerloader it will kinda match. But the Weyland Commandos I don´t really fancy and hard to make a even match of models.
