So, Necromunda's back?...Time to dust off the Scavvies!
« on: 27 October 2017, 10:39:31 AM »
I've been trying to paint up my scavvy gang for some time now, but I get easily distracted (plus I've moved house twice), but with the Necromunda hype I thought it was time to crack on with some more. I've got a snazzy new light box, but still trying to figure it all out (sorry about the too dark/light images on some of them). So here they are so for, only about 30 more to do!  :'(





















I'm a slow painter, so fingers crossed I'll get another done soon.

Looking good (& I can empathise with being a slow painter); are they all original Scavvy GW sculpts?

Yep, It's a mix of Confrontation, Rogue Trader (haven't painted those up yet), Necromunda and Underhive era minis, plus an unreleased scavvy I was lucky enough to get hold of years back

Fine painting on your figures.
A lot of old figures still match up well with newer stuff.

Awesome! Great work on all those. I love the muted colours.
Scavvies were my first Necromunda gang, so I love looking at this.

Fantastic! I'm loving the mix of the Confrontation Marauder and Citadel sculpts with the later Necromunda and Specialist Games ones. They look great together.

More to come I hope!

They look great, in an awful sort of way.  I truly hope they fix up the rules to make these guys work in Newcromunda - the originals were very, very broken under the Outlanders rules as written.

Thanks folks

I just hope the new rules are better than the Underhive ones *shudders*. They're fun minis to dig out after such a long time and redo.I think the Outlander scavvies were maybe even my first minis.
