Nekroplanet Reinforcements

Tomb raiders from far corners of the Void land on Nekroplanet Grob to pillage its treasures. But the treasures are guarded! Grobniks - an army of androids built by the ancient extinct civilisation that buried their dead on the inhospitable Nekroplanet, still watch the sepulchres of their former masters.

In December 2021 Mammoth Miniatures released my first Grobnik sculpt in resin: the Heavy Trooper. I've sculpted a few more of these Sci-Fi robo skeletons since, each with its own combat role and design. If you follow me on Instagram you've likely seen most of them, but I reckon they deserve their own blog post. 

Grobnik Trooper, a footsoldier robotic guardian of Nekroplanet's tombs. 

Grobnik Death Ray. A small but deadly flying machine whose design is reminiscent of the sun rays, Nekroplanet's native sky fauna.
 

Grobnik Dragoon. Nekroplanet's robotic fast cavalry.

Grobnik Bulwark. This heavily armoured unit's purpose is to act as an immovable object. The Bulwark's massive body and hands block the enemy's passage, while the small cannon mounted on top can serve a barrage of suppressive fire to keep tomb raiders away from their prize.

The Assassin.This Grobnik targets the intruder bands' most vital members and takes them out quickly and efficiently. Highly deadly, but fragile. 

The Trooper, Bulwark, Dath Ray, and Dragoon are already with Mammoth Miniatures for moulding and casting. They will soon be joining the Heavy Trooper in their online store! The Assassin is the first of the next batch, which I'm sculpting right now.

How do you feel about the new Grobniks? Let me know in the comments.
