Title: Into the Void...
Post by: V on December 04, 2018, 02:02:46 PM
I've decided to do a Rogue Trader project (alongside my Oldhammer Fantasy one) but instead of using the old stuff I have... I figured I'd try and do it with the new plastics.

This will be a 'from scratch' project - figures, terrain, vehicles - the lot will need doing. The idea is to keep it in the theme of Rogue Trader as a mass skirmish with a dose of RPG about it.

Anyway... enough of the boring stuff and onto the models. The first batch of models Im working on are a group of Void Pirates. Part of this project will be a lot of conversions, and these fellows start that. Its also an interesting one for me, as I hate painting plastic figures, and this whole project will likely be plastic!

So the first three Void Pirates are ready...

... I have a few more waiting in the wings for this 'warband'...

Lovely! And since I've somehow managed to end up with too many Genestealer Cultists I'll definitely be following your progress closely for ideas to steal.

Two more Void Pirates finished last night... Most of the pirates are currently equipped for ship to ship 'boarding' actions with Vac-Suits and close quarters weapons.

May need to add a few with some longer range weapons for ground based actions...

Some great paint jobs over incredible modeling work there.  Well done.  Makes me want to go dabble in GW kits again, and not much does that these days.  :)

Throne Agent Tasker

(https://images.beastsofwar.com/2020/11/38069393-IMG_20201102_204437_241.jpg)

Quote
"Formerly Chastener Tasker, a member of the Adeptus Arbites based in Hive Tauros. A former shock trooper, he quickly rose through the ranks to command one of the precinct Snatch Squads before joining the ranks of the investigation and interrogation branch. It was while in this role that he assisted Inquisitor Solace during her work on Hive Tauros suppressing a Genestealer Cult know as the Devoted Throne. Due to his excellent service Tasker was offered a commission with Solace as first, a temporary Investigator and then later as one of her full time Inquisition Throne Agents. It is considered by many that Tasker will one day become an Acolyte for an Inquisitor but to Tasker himself that seems unlikely. He thrives in his current role and has no desire to leave the service of Inquistor Solace..."
