Some old school RT thingies

[Constable Bertrand]

 

Spechmarines aren't my thing. But those beakies and v1 termie are hot!!

Cheers
Matt.

Stunning stuff!
That squad is excellent, but the Termie is the nuts.
 

So many good RT threads at the moment makes me want to play too.
 

[Suber]

Thank you all!
I wasn't really sure that the termie was going to work; let's face it, the mini is... well... should say distinctive . I might endure my search of a Mk.II, finish the squad and see if they all work together.

I really like the terminator 

I really, really, really, really, really, like the terminator.

[Steve63]

I'm lovin' it!!!

[warburton]

Excellent work!

[steders]

Fantastic stuff!

[Suber]

Thank you all! I find the RT stuff quite rewarding to paint. I scarcely play the game anymore, but whenever I do I still enjoy the whole concept of it

Bringing the thread back to life. I had these guys lost in a box for ages. Time to do some justice to them! Quite a speedpaint, didn't want to spent that much time (you'll see in a few days, these are not the only minis I've been painting!):













This last one was a little dull, no Crozius Arcanum whatsoever, so I added a banner.

This is how the badass guys in the Chapter look like when they go out for beers:

Some more stuff incoming soon!

Old School Space Marines always bring a smile to my face. I never played Rogue Trader, but I do love the look of those older GW sculpts.

[Suber]

Thank you!
The thing is that, when I opened the box in which I knew I had the Chaplains (and some Apothecaries and Techmarines which I haven't painted yet) I found more minis I didn't remember I had! I found a stash of Orks and Beakies (hooray!). So a sudden idea came to mind. What if my Chaplains had full squads of Field Police under their command? . I frenzied over the beakies and this is what I got:







I bought them long time ago here at LAF and (shame on me) I had relegated them to a box. They have interesting conversions on a few bolters to make them look like flamers. I painted the tanks in green to suggest they actually are web guns (which may make sense if the Field Police Squad is trying to capture fugitives alive).
An example of a Squad:



The Field Police was never developed beyond the illustration in the RT book, as far as I know. In my mind it makes sense them being the law enforcers within the Chapter, the most gifted eventually becoming Chaplains themselves.

You can find them on the blog:

You will see them in action quite soon!

Love your Chaplains, but those Field Police are something else! I can just imagine those naughty Marines kicking back in a local bar after a hard day on the battlefield, insulting the locals and getting into a rather nasty brawl. The barman runs into the street, yelling for help. A look of relief comes over him as a squad of Field Police come jogging round the corner...

[Modhail]

Only to see the bar get levelled in the struggle by the Field Police to arrest the boozed up superhumans... (Really, those rank and file brothers! Get a few beers in them and they think they're super-superhuman....)

I love your retro-paintjobs, brilliant stuff! The Field police are an especially nice touch. And the Humpty-dumptynator is great! Don't know why, but I just love that design.

I've got a few squads of RT marines in a stash somewhere, but I'm afraid to start on them, mostly because I can't decide what chapter to do them...  (I want to do them in a nice and retro chapter, but not Crimson Fists, although, I would like to do the Rynn's world campaign, so then they... and the circle goes round and round. I do have Marneus-on-the-loo, so I might as well go Ultras?)

Brilliant!
Gorgeous retro eye candy.
Love it!

Nice! Always liked the field police.
