Title: Some Rogue Trader characters [Grendizer marines P. 4]
Post by: area23 on 21 February 2016, 03:00:13 PM: I've been painting a bit of Rogue Trader/sci fi stuff recently which I never showed here:

Post by: Constable Bertrand on 22 February 2016, 08:14:47 AM: Cool collection and nice arrangement of sci-fi terrain.

Is that a "space-Jag" loaded up with gear parked infront of the predator movie poster? Very cool 8) 8)

Post by: area23 on 13 March 2016, 02:08:59 PM: Here are the brood brothers of my genestealer cult. They're cobalt-1 miniatures. The colours are based on the spacesuits of the Nostromo crew from the Alien movie.

Post by: Vermis on 20 March 2016, 03:06:07 PM: Nice stuff. :) Love the ambulls. And I'm amazed how different the orks look when you paint 'em caucasian instead of green!

Nice size comparison of the Hispano-Suiza, too. Ta. :D
Title: Re: Some Rogue Trader characters
Post by: Daeothar on 21 March 2016, 09:52:03 AM: Great stuff!

I really love the RT Imperial Army heads on Space Marine bodies; that looks great! 8)

And in the group shot of the Cult (all the rage these days, obviously), I can see some old plastic Gretchin with Skaven heads. Wans't it you who posted those conversions here a couple of years ago? I was inspired enough by that to do a squad of them myself. They certainly look right at home amongst those vile cultists!

And Ambulls... :-*
Title: Re: Some Rogue Trader characters
Post by: area23 on 21 March 2016, 08:24:08 PM: Ha, it's seriously a coincedence that I finally painted the cult. Thanks to the LPL really. I had dismissed the rumours of a new version of genestealer cult as silly rumours.
They're indeed the same skaven I did with the LPL a couple of years ago. :)
Title: Re: Some Rogue Trader characters
Post by: area23 on 25 April 2016, 09:57:55 AM: Thanks to the Lead Painters' League I finally managed to paint and repaint all my originial human RT miniatures from 25 years or so ago.

Post by: area23 on 11 December 2016, 08:45:52 AM: I didn't update this thread for months while I've actually been quite productive.

Yesterday I finished this Tech-gang. They were sculpted for Confrontation at the time and they have this distinct early 90's cyberpunk look.

the gang will be joined by, among others, this defected marine scout.

An imperial agent with retinue. Possibly an inquisitor posing as a rogue trader. His team includes an assassin and a mentat...

...Perhaps an inquisitor investigating the movements of rebellious planetary governor Ruff.

In the meantime a genestealer cult of terrorist insurgents is trying to destabilize a hive city.

Post by: Belligerentparrot on 11 December 2016, 05:59:57 PM: Lovely stuff! I always like to see Confrontation gangers (my favourite minis of all time), and yours look amazing. :-*
I'm never entirely convinced when people substitute the original plastic arms - it is hard to make the minis look as good - but your painting skills and colour scheme choices are so good you've solved that problem. What a cracking gang!

That cultist/brood brother conversion is ace too.

I don't recognise the bearded chap in the red man-boobs armour. Where's he from?

Here are some more space monkeys I almost forgot,

I found the exact same shampoo-bottle on the beach and the same espresso canisters and then there was no way I couldn't copy the original. Mork made me do it.

Fixed it for you. If you edit your post(s), you'll see the BB code adds height and width values (width capped at 1000px), which you can change (proportionally).

Reaper Miniatures 'Gor-gor'. I immagine the axe constructed with an eldar bone weapon.
I never liked the 40K tyranid zoats very much with their bio-mech weapons. I prefer the WHFB concept of Zoats being wandering mystics possibly created by the Slann. As such this a warrior-psyker lending his services to others.

I never liked the 40K tyranid zoats very much with their bio-mech weapons. I prefer the WHFB concept of Zoats being wandering mystics possibly created by the Slann. As such this a warrior-psyker lending his services to others.

Understood, but I did like the masks to block controlling 'nid pheromones.

No bad thing though

Out of curiosity; where's the heavy weapon?

lol I was planning to give him a weapon hanging under his arm but I haven't found a suitable weapon yet. I could also turn him in a weapons platform operator. Not sure yet.
I think these paints are perfect for groups of monopose miniatures. I tried painting some several times in the past but I always abandoned them out of sheer boredom!
