Ok, here's a Gang I've been working on lately. I was pretty lucky to get my hands on the Scavvy king model so it would have been a crime not to paint it ASAP.





You can find many more pics of them and their general background in the associated post HERE.

Outstanding work! Love the way you haven't gone for the cartoon-y look so many folk seem to go for with scavvies (e.g. greenish skin). These guys look amazing, and bad-ass deadly too. One of the best paint-jobs on the scavvy king I've seen.

Are you planning on getting the other unreleased gang members? It's a dangerous move I tell you! The unreleased scavvies were what hooked me into collecting... I'll just get the 7, I said.... well over 100 unreleased minis later, I can't afford to buy a house  :D

Cheers, glad you like them, I 've only found 2 painted examples on the net and this one plus the one a mate painted earlier this week are the only others I know of, that's 4  in total.
It's a real pity they didn't release such jewels honestly. I had the chance to get this one as a gift otherwise I'd never have painted it.
I do plan on adding some mutants to the mix at some point but needed the core base done beforehand. I'm not a fan of greens on scavvies and on Nurgle models either so took the occasion to avoid it (apart from the swordman's dress).

I love the colour scheme.
Grungy but not just green and brown.

Thanks a lot to you all, I've had a wonderful time with those really. Precise and forgiving at once, Love them !

Now here's a special one for me, since it's the first sculpt from an esteemed friend of mine :



I'm really glad I was able to grab a copy and paint it. Feels like teamwork !
You can see a link to all the backstory behind this guy in the blogpost HERE.

Here's a stupid one I like a lot, little and oh so simple but he'll be a perfect photobomber in scenic shots I think :



You can find the rear shot (but who would want that) in the associated blogpost HERE.

Brilliant!
I love the concept behind these.
 8) 8)

Nice brushwork too, of course.
They blend in really well with the rest of the cult.

Just fantastic!  :-* Love the mix of tech and not-tech on the proud father, too.

I also love the weirdly "American Gothic" vibe of the two together.

Love these - nowhere near enough space civilians monks out there (says the man that didn't actually back the Colony 87 kickstarter). Love the mother'a smile - totally demented!

Wow that's some creepy shit right there. Lovely models though and as usual very nicely painted.

Cheers folks, I have to say they scratch an itch I've had for some time, being Genestealer related but non combatant at the same time.... ^^
