Title: My Necromunda painting poll -Stealer cult wins
Post by: beefcake on 04 May 2015, 03:37:02 AM
Being 20 Years of Necromunda I thought I'd get my old minis out and paint some. Unfortunately I have such a selection that I can't really decide.
Help is needed!
Here are the pics of my different gangs that need painting (any minis shown painted will be stripped as they won't be my PJ)
Not all are actually Necromunda but most fit the theme.
Here are the pictures of the different gangs. Take a look before you vote please :)
2 Votes each, runs for 5 days.

Thanks for the votes so far, pretty one sided at the moment. Keep em coming. :)

Well that was a hard vote, too many tasty options. Now go lock yourself up in your painting room and don't leave till you have painted them all.  ;D

It gets too daunting and then I don't paint anything so I thought this would give me some accountability.  lol
My painting room is open plan so too difficult to lock myself away. ;)

Those genestealers need painting, the poor little mites. Just look at their little faces.

I voted genestealer cult - as they models are fabulous, and Ratskins as the idea of two very different groups with very opposing ideals, not related to various houses, clashing, appeals to me  :)

:) Thanks. This is only a small part of my hybrids (about a fifth or so not including plastic genestealers) So I'm just trying to start off small with them, if they are the winners that is.

Go Scavvies!  Scum of the underhive!

Pretty much anything other than Cawdor, as that is what is on my painting table currently  lol

 lol
I like the cawdor gangers. Never did to begin with but they grew on me once I purchased some. I quite like the old scavvies most but the new ones are good how they look like gangers from other members that were mutated and then moved further down the hive seeking out other mutants.
I should have a 3d printer arriving some time soon so (if it works properly) I'm planning on making up a couple of chainsaw arms and sculpting a Bull Gorg mini. One of my favourite pieces of Necromunda Fluff.

I voted for Orlocks, mostly because they looked the easiest to finish off. Not sure how much work you plan on doing, but even an advanced paint scheme could be done starting with these guys as they are right now.

I voted Pit Slaves and Spyrers, just because I see those the least. I nearly voted Cawdor though (similar reasons), so that would be my third vote.  :D

I do love all the original ten gangs though, and I also really liked the Nomads and Enforcers too. So, should you feel the muse to paint a random gang because you feel like it, that's good too!  lol

'Stealer brood all the way. I'm still trying to get enough models together for a full gang myself, so seeing a full gang painted up might be just the right motivation... ;)

Looks pretty conclusive what the end result is going to be. I might get out and do some priming when I get home. :D

Genestealer cult it is then! Glad to have the motivation to start these guys. :)
Thanks for the votes and helping an indecisive painter.

You are welcome.  Genesteaer cult was my favorite army, and the main reason I rage quit 40k in 3rd edition...

:) Yep, I loved the 2nd ed Tyranid rulebook that had full offical rules for genestealer cults. After getting rid of the majority of my GW rulebooks and army lists I kept that one and I think the undead one as well before they split it into 2 army books  >:(

I assembled the gang today. I changed a couple of minis from the ones pictured. I popped a familiar in there as well. So no brood brothers at this stage. I guess I'll work on them later. They could recruited from any gang TBH. The gang doesn't really fit the fluff entirely as the less human looking hybrids, patriarch and purestrains shouldn't show up until they are ready to overthrow the planet... then again maybe that's what's happening?
