15mm Sci Fi - Alternative Armies Cyborg Enslavers

 Cyborgs are a staple of science fiction.  Sadly, my collection lacked some of these basic arch-types for awhile.  Well, no longer.  

Today I finally got around to painting a small sample pack of Cyborg Enslavers I purchased from Alternative Armies some time ago.  The details are adequate and the five poses are suitable enough for various skirmish games without being too repetitive (although I would like to see this range expanded).  

Alternative Armies Cyborg Enslavers

"We are the Borg. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile." 


The paint scheme was very simple:
  • Vallejo Mecha Black Primer
  • Vallejo Real Metal Steel
  • Vallejo Chrome for bits and pieces.
  • Washed Black.
  • Reaper Tanned Flesh & Tanned Flesh Highlight
  • Vallejo German Camo Black Brown and White for the eyes
  • Various Reds, Blues and Greens for accents.


Lately I have been focusing on eyes.  They turned out surprising well and were rather simple to do.  

Just don't breath while doing them.




I will be adding another 50 or so guys to this small group in the near future for various games like Alien Squad Leader, Five Parsecs and Clash on the Fringe.

    1. Thanks! They painted up better than I thought they would actually. The Vallejo Real Metal paint line is superb. The paint is super smooth and airbrushes like a dream.

      They will serve as my Converted in Clash on the Fringe and Five Parsecs.
