Title: Necromunda: House Cawdor
Post by: iago on 01 June 2008, 03:27:52 PM
This is my latest painting project. It's a gang called "House Cawdor (http://uk.games-workshop.com/storefront/store.uk?do=Individual&code=99110599001&orignav=300808)" from Games Workshop's Necromunda (http://www.specialist-games.com/necromunda/default.asp). I originally bought the figs over a couple years ago because I didn't have anything to paint and because they'd go nicely with my Redemptionists (http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=5339.0). Then I bought about 10000 figs for other games, and had more than enough. But, I got around to them!

I personally don't like painting the big groups. For this gang, I did a single fig, then I did six concurrently, then six more concurrently. I find that extremely tedious, and each miniature gets less attention than it deserves. But, on the plus side, it greatly accelerates the process.

If you want bigger pictures and more angles, take a look at the album (http://www.skullsecurity.org/ospap2/index.php?action=albums&album_id=666). But for now, here are individual front shots of the gang members:

I really like them.  :)

I dunno, maybe it's just the name "Cawdor", but with that lovely blue colourscheme, they look perfect as a Post Apocalyptic Scottish gang.

Nice job, boss.  :)

I'm not 100% certain, but I'm sure I saw them in amongst the Rangers fans who rioted in Manchester recently..  lol

They are very well done, though & I also like the colour scheme  8)

far too scruffy to be Gers supporters..... ;)
I love Necromunda! Youve just inspired me to get the gangs out of the closet and have a game or three at the weekend.
