Doctor Who. The Movellans 1

 


The Last couple of Doctor Who paint jobs were inspired by my current viewing, this one was more an inspired cleanup. While sorting through my desk I came across a very old Citadel pink (still good after all these years!) which reminded me of some Movellans I had picked up for a future force. The Pink would be perfect for their laser guns and painting them would make a sweet break between the sober green of my UNIT forces which have finally made their way back to the table!



Featured in the Destiny of the Daleks and several Big Finish productions they were introduced as a major android opponent to the Daleks but despite that, they have not been used again as a major foe, mainly due to their Disco appearance I fear!

A set of these has also been released by Warlord Games but mine are the Black Tree designs versions.




I think this one will be a slow burn project and I will add a couple of figures to my next couple of Black Tree orders and then add their ship as a terrain piece.
The Movellan ship is designed to drill into the earth as it lands as a defensive tactic, and also reduces the prop budget for the show. This should make for an easier build, jus one one level with the top tent like structure.
