I’ve managed to accumulate quite a few character miniatures for Star Trek in the last year, and still have a few left to paint. In my quest to find a good way to transport them to and from games, I settled on cases designed for Essential Oils. Initially I was using some smaller cases, but …
A series of photos of the painting I did on the Modiphius Star Trek Adventures Next Generation Bridge Crew and the Star Trek Next Generation Away Team miniature sets, with a few other minis in the background of some shots.
I picked these miniatures up a couple years ago from Hasselfree Miniatures while looking for Battlestar Galactica characters.
