A small vue of the Indian Rebels opposing British and Prussian forces in their race for unobtainium in the steaming hot Indian enviroment. Aided by terros older than Man itself these beings are neither truly human nor daemon.

Those fellows in robes are lovely figures very nicely painted. I also think they'd look great in white with saffron turbans if you plan to do more (or anybody else is).

The monsters are cool too; though they do look like they're sucking sherbet out of those tubes to me, which diminishes their menace somewhat.  :)

Nice work chap.  :-*
Love what you have done with the steam tank. Bravo!
If you don't succeed at first use a bigger hammer!

Blasted!
Curse ye to the nethermost regions of noneuclidean nebular space, Thorbjørn.

Nobody exposes the sikh empire without paying for it (I´ll take blood, please...).

And nobody introduces me to an excellent forum without screwing up my daily internet quota, and thus puts my already strained relationship at risk...
Arghh, if only I had a couple of more hours to spend each day o_o

Well, curses and whining aside: thanks for all the positive comments. I really appreciate it, so keep ´em coming  :D

I´m hoping to paint my maharaja/daemon sultan tomorrow. Pics will follow. Oh, and hopefully the glorious and dastardly fiendish steam elephant will arrive any day now  8)

Cheers!

Chairface/Cigarface - any relation?

I must say I'm quite liking this too (obviously having posted it and forced you in here).

Any great ideas for a scenario? 8)

Here is a small update on the ruler of the sikh empire: the daemonic sultan Malakh Singh.

His baba yaga style palanquin is almost done. Just needs a little more work on the metal. Malakh, however, is little more than primed on these pics.




And here with a special appearance of Sir Humphrey Gladstone to give a sense of scale:


EDIT: Oh, I almost forgot: once again, thank you for all the kind comments. Much appreciated  :)

Loving your work, :-*. It has given me some ideas for some Martian weapons and vehicles. How did you make the lightning effect for your gun?
