Some old school RT thingies

[Suber]

I've recently painted a few totally unrelated minis. Well, not totally unrelated, I mean they are not part of any coherent project, just fancied painting them.The first one is this Champion of Khorne:



I tried to experiment and replace golden tones by yellows. The pic is awful, but as it now looks better than how it was previously painted, I'm satisfied for the moment.

I also painted this other guy, the classic Demon Hunter:



I have an issue with cameras, I simply can't take damn proper pics





I promise they are actually better than they appear here!

As I was using red and yellow, I rescued this toy of old, which appeared where I couldn't expect in some forgotten corner. As soon as I saw it again, I knew I had a perfect Ferrobeast for RT games (Go check the rulebook!):



So that's it for the moment, I'll be posting some other things I still have to paint or repaint (tons of pending work!).
They also can be seen here:

Looks good! I think the pictures look ok. The reds are a bit dull, but I also always have problems photographing reds 

I think the Khorne champion is a Fantasy miniature, but still looks great for Rogue Trader.

Ferro Beast is great! I plan to find one at some poit too.

A few guys more. One for all, all for one :









Don't really fancy the Emperor's Children colour scheme. I spotted that on the internet and copied it, but it doesn't look as cool as I desired
I would have like to get the four Jes Goodwin renegades, but well, this is what I got, not weeping at all over it .

I have some Slaaneshi patiently waiting for me and my brushes. Soon... Soon...

Looking good.

They may not me the original traitor marine sculpts but they are very nice all the same.

Lovely work there. I  :-*love that Plague Marine. And nice to have a buddy for the Khorne Champion in the first post. I love these old Chaos Marines but have none.  
Guess that's this years ebay project for me.  

[Achilles]

It's Blaster Master! I love that old Techno Blessing fig. He was from the ROC D1000 mutation table!

Lovely paints on all of them. The 'classic four' chaos Legionnaires turned out wonderfully and I've always had a soft spot for that old Inquisitor.

Lots of lovely old stuff

I painted three Reaper Bones "Oxidation Beasts" as Ferro Beasts last weekend, but yours has that Gygax seal of approval

That old Nurgle Renegade is a great model too.  The Goodwin Plague Marine is a classic, but that old pointing guy is a favourite of mine too.  My version of that guy squelched out of many a Rhino hatch back in the old days.

Didnt GW release the four of those classic Chaos Marines as a set about a year or so ago?  EDIT: Yes they did.  "Traitors of Chaos (LINK)", still available.  All four for €29, which is cheap as GW goes these days.  Finecast too, obviously.

Thank you all! I have a soft spot for these RT-ish minis, it is almost the only 40K stuff driving my attention; I'll try to keep on going!

Wooow! That toy you found, knew ive seen it somewhere before ... I had one just like it as a kid, got it from a pack of "prehistoric animals" or something along those lines awesome find, nostalgia gold!

[Suber]

Yeah, that's right! It came with a lot of dinosaurs! Oh, wow, it's funny to share this kind of memories...

[blackstone]

That plastic toy was the inspiration for the d&d rust monster!!! Good find 

[Doomsdave]

I have that old Rust Monster toy and the other plastic "dinosaurs" that inspired some of the original monster manual entries.  Great repaint on yours. 

[Elbows]

The old Chaos fellas are simply lovely.  Great paintwork. 

[Suber]

More Chaos! More RT love! Well, the first mini is not strictly RT, but I'll ask for your indulgence.

I have quite a bunch of Emperor's Children Renegades of old. It was time to reorganize them and make them playable, not just random minis. So the first thing to do was expand the army (yes, always expand! ). I have not been able to paint this noise marine in the psychodelic 80's colours. I've tried everything and I just can't. So I've painted him in he same colours than the other minis I have. Ladies and Gentlemen... Roy & the Daemonettes!



Oh, the guy is in need of someone for the chorus, right?



While I paint the rest and make up the squads, I'll leave you with the man not ashamed to ride a blue mount:

You can bet, a Slaaneshi warband is on the go...
