I got the Rogue Trader book back in 1987 and played it a bit until 2nd Edition came out. Unfortunately, I never played WFB until 4th edition came out. I do remember reading through White Dwarf as a kid and really wanting to get into it. I have played 4th/5th/6th/7th/8th, and even Age of Sigmar, but nothing captures my interest like WFB 3E.
That being the case, a couple of friends and I are starting to work on the older armies we have collected over the years, and hope to start playing soon. This is the first model I have painted for the army (or in an 'old-style' color scheme). I think I picked him us as an extra in an eBay auction - Not sure if he was originally a cavalry model, or not, but someone had cut the interior of his legs to fit a horse. His weapon was also broken off (and not present when I got him).
I decided to try and make him a standard bearer, so I drilled out the broken weapon, and used some brass rod and bits to make a standard. I did some green stuff work to repair the damaged legs. And after some painting, here is the result - warts, and all.
