Wow. 20 years. Nice to see peoples stuff. Particularly like that Delaque gang Voivod. I've got a scavvy gang currently in progress. Here's what I have painted so far (although not all Necromunda miniatures).

Got three more miniatures about 50-75% done too.

I've also got this Necromunda Chaos Cult Demagogue sat undercoated on my desk so I might try and get some paint on him for this thread.

I painted up an Orlock gang for Adepticon 2014, it's been a fun time playing with them but I've only got in 20ish games so far. I always liked the models (I have nearly everything from the 90s) but never played up until last year. Here's some shots of where I left mine last year. I still need to go back and finish up another leader, last heavy, and my Juves. I'm also not a fan of the bases, and will likely redo those.

Also, here's some shots from the last two years of Adepticon.

@ Evil Dave: lovely gang! Orlocks were my first gang, and yours look really good.

@ Diakon: good choice of models there - although I think the chap at the back in the helmet looks a little soft, the shotgun wielder at the front is a good fit.

That is a gorgeous Orlock gang there, sir!

Oddly enough I only got into necromunda a few years ago.
Got a sweet deal from another forum.
Have some converted delaques. But only five of the entire gang painted.

I also have a converted, fully magnetised goliath gang, which still needs sculpted hair (models made of GW marauders/catachans) and bits for a spyrer gang.
so much ideas, so little time.

I prefer the look of those,to the idea of them being like something from the matrix.

Hmmm... I have at least the plastics and some metal Goliaths hiding somewhere...

Them Orlocks look fantastic
The trousers actually look like denim

I sold off all my Necromunda a couple of years ago but I'm pretty sure I've got a Karloth Valois somewhere, I'll see if I can find him and maybe get a coat of paint on.
Cheers

Lovely stuff that everyone has posted!

Scary to think that if Necromunda is 20, that means I have been somehow involved in the hobby (on and off.....) for almost 20 years....

Necromunda came out in what I consider the golden age of GW. Tremendous miniature releases with fantastic boxed games (something I think they really should have kept up - way easier to sell a $60 box to a mom and dad for their kid...than launch them into a $1,000 hobby.).

Necromunda, Warhammer Quest, Mordheim, Space Hulk, etc. They had a hugely strong boxed set lineup which really added a ton of character to normal GW games (lots o' bits for modelling).

We played the crap out of some Necromunda and Mordheim continued on strong much later. I never cared for Scavvies or Spyrers, etc. I felt Necromunda started running away from its core (as many games of this type too) and became too crazy and confusing. Way too much power creep with power gangs etc. Great game though as it was.

Whoops, seem to have gotten a bit of dust in my eyes there...

Lovely games, good times. Back when I was young(er), foolish and my time and money didn't evaporate with quite the speed they do these days...

The only Necromunda gang I have painted is my converted plastic Orlocks, but they were painted during Necromunda's original print run and before I knew how to properly hold a brush, I daren't show them here...

I do have my =I=Munda/Inq28 stuff, which is for me a sort of spiritual successor to Necromunda's semi-narrative small-gang skirmishes. I believe I have a few blisters of Pit Slaves (originally bought during a GW sale, do you remember those?) I intended to use as servitors/indentured workers for an Adeptus Mechanicus work crew. Seeing this is the double decade, I might give them some love to celebrate the anniversary.
Might even try to get some of the old gang together for a campaing day/weekend, I hope they're up for it.

Mordheim, Blood Bowl and Necromunda are some of my fav games from GW.
I have A single Necro fig painted though. :-( I Mean he is a Redemptionist so that is worth like 10 Orlocks. LOL
If a Necro Painting Club was formed it could actually drag me back to painting.
Love the game. Had a many fun time playing.
Great for conversions and craziness.

This thread is for all intents and purposes a necromunda painting club so don't keep yourself back.

I do have a couple of my old Munda models around somewhere.
I shall post them up later.
The paint jobs are twenty years old too....you have been warned!

Found 'em!

My old Pit Slaves....

....complete with twenty year old paint jobs!
These are all that I have left, apart from a Cawdor Juve that has hidden itself away somewhere.
I only kept these as they were my first ever conversions.
Glad that I did now.

Ah, Necromunda! For the fun of celebrating twenty years of it (although I didn´t play it for ten years now), here are my gangs - Eschers (of course!) and Redemtionists:

Each of them is safely stored in an appropriately painted wooden box:
