Thanks blacksoilbill! There's plenty more to come  :D.

So with the new Van Saar gang hitting shelves this week and the inevitable fact that i'm buying them, I decided that i better churn out my Orlocks as there my favourite gang.

So may I present my Iron Reaper Orlock gang:







And a group shot:



They took forever to paint so I'm sick of looking at them right now... but I can't wait to give them a go in the Underhive soon.

Thanks for reading  :)

Fantastic work, as always! I think these guys would make a fantastic warband of Nomadic Raiders for Starfall as well! 😉

Fantastic and better looking if I may say than the GW paint job. These look less gooky and more gritty.

Thanks alot guys! It's been a while now so I'll just put up everything 40k related i've been doing.

First up is a WIP shot of my Necromunda Cawdor gang I've just started:



I wasn't too excited about the standard heads as they weren't sinister culty enough for what i wanted for this gang to be so I changed them out for the ever so versatile Frostgrave Cultists set. They're all just about big enough to look right.

Next up is the start of a Primaris Deathwatch Kill Team:



They're the easy build ones out of the started sets with the left hand shoulder pad cut off.

And last is my ever expanding Death Guard army:



















Thats all for now, next up will be some finished Cawdor, Deathwatch and maybe some more Reaper conversions since i just got a few more to "bless" with some bionics and other bitz.

Thanks for reading  :)

Thanks blacksoilbill!

So this project is slowly becoming less of a 40k project and more of a science fantasy galaxy inspired by 40k, a galaxy with less grimdark and abit more hope.

So I was wracking my brain over what to do next so I decided to make a space elf bard. With the elves ravaged by war over countless centuries their greatest champions have fought against the darkness time and time again so it is the bards that carry on their legacies.

I imagine after a busy day of fighting/ questing this elven bard is relaxing without armour and rocking out a tune for her comrades.






 
She's sitting on a log playing an electric lute for all to here, she's a reaper bard with scion tubing and IG cadian vox parts.

Cheers for reading have much more to come.

Cool collection, how sci-fi should be, dark hues, in my opinion.
