Thanks very much! It’s been a great project to paint towards. The variety of models involved has kept it feeling always fresh.

With the addition of a thunder warrior, here’s an updates photo of the rogue trader crew!

^I love the genestealer cult, and the mix of classic and new metal in the red rogues is fantastic! Love it!

Thanks!

The fun thing about these rogues is I keep discovering models that I realize would fit in perfectly — like this thunder warrior.

Something with a sense of that high/low tech mashup.

Another finished unit of beastmen, using an eclectic selection of models - one from Mordheim, one from rogue trader, and three of the same WFB model. I’d like to figure out some other suitable beastmen to use, but in the absence of that, this unit is “done.”

Wow these are great. The guy on the right is from talisman timescape, who is the mini on the left?

Thanks very much! The model on the left is a 40k model from - I think - third edition. An inquisition/daemonhunters model if I am remembering right. A later period than I’m usually interested in, but such a good and unique model.

Great work I like your mix of periods in the minis but retaining a consistent look.

Much appreciated, the mixing of ranges here (40k, WFB, and some other manufacturers) has been one of my favorite parts of this project so I’m glad to see it “works.”

I am constantly learning about models I wasn’t familiar with that “fit” what I’m going for (for example, just saw the skaven warlord with jezzail, from third or fourth edition WFB that would fit in well enough with my beastmen on the thread a couple posts ago).

^Absolutely gorgeous! I I forget if you said elsewhere, but they look like part of a team. Will they indeed be joining forces?

Thank you and yes!

Anything on this thread, I have painted with a mind towards playing on the table together.

So this “space zealot” army I have played twice now - both games of second edition, once “as chaos cult” and once “as genestealer cult with chaos allies.”

I think the biggest compliment I can give you is I'm not a fan of sci-fi in general but always look forward to your updates and its all down to your painting skills, there's a grittiness to them that I really like.

That is high praise indeed! Thank you very much. I do like to embrace a grittier style and it really does seem to suit the models I’ve selected for this project, too!
