World Eater Traitor Marines! Bloodletter Page 3
« on: February 15, 2013, 12:19:10 PM »
Since my friend Torben has just released his generic sci-fi rulesystem called Fireteam Andromeda, I decided to paint up some Imperial Troopers to go with the setting.

I had these old Bob Naismith Marines lying around and I thought they would be perfect for the job. But as I was painting the first one I soon realised that they were World Eater Marines in their Pre-Heresy colour scheme.

So came to be my first traitor Marines (Which still will go well as Imperial Troopers for Fireteam Andromeda too).







The Fireteam Andromeda rules are made for 15mm gaming, but I have been told there is rules for 28mm too, so hopefully my Imperial World Eater Troopers will see some action still.

If you want to know more about Fireteam Andromeda you should check out the Terminus Nebulah blog, which also includes lot of old-school goodness.

On a side note, I have also started my own blog of old schoolness, it is called Deathworld Adventures. I will not be posting anything on the blog which I won't be posting here on LAF, so the blog is more just a place where I collect the things I do and so will be an offer to people who would like to see through my projects.

They are glorious! You've really outdone yourself this time around Jonas! Wonderful!

We really, really, really need to get that game arranged so we can post about it on our blogs! ;)

Thanks, but I haven't really done anything beyond what I usually do, so I think it is just the wonderful sculpts helping me on the way!

 :D

And yes, we need to game soon. Maybe we can find a day in next week?

Nice work. They look great. I also love the retro spiky plants in the background.

The sickle in the fruitful field;
The sword he sung a song of death,
But could not make the sickle yield."
