Great work on the matriarch, both sculpting and painting. Can't wait to see rest of her team :)

Thanks all!

That's a brilliant character and seamless conversion! The facial scarring is very nicely done. The add-ons look totally natural too.

What's the base figure for the conversion?

Cheers - It's the lady from this pack

though I didn't know that when I picked her up off eBay. I think it was your Genestealer cultist farmers (with the creepy baby) that set me off buying weird civilians. Such good minis.

@Earther, I'm not 100% sure but I think he did the Footsore interwar range?

Yes, he did the excellent inter-war civis.

But you're additions and painting really bring her to life as a character. Outstanding job sir! :D

That last one is also great, fantastic vision you've brought to reallity. She's a real character.
Nice paint too. very good choice of colours.

Great work Jagg,
Does feel good to change scales once in a while.
Hope to see more of your 15mm though...

Keep it up

Cheers - I actually wish I'd done the shawl in a different colour, I feel like she's all a bit 'brown', I like a bit of punchy colours on minis, which she's lacking.

Plenty more 15s ready for basing at the moment - a space shepherd, wandering space prospector, a few mercs and bounty hunters... there's always something ticking along! I'm enjoying 28s again at the moment though, it's nice painting one off characters so I can mix paints pretty freely and not worry about duplicating it onto another miniature.

I'm in another 28mm dabbling phase!

Whenever I start thinking about 28mm projects, I like to challenge myself to paint some, to remind me why I don't enjoy it that much (and to save me buying a load!). Hasn't worked this time, because this guy was really fun!

I ***love*** Bob Murch's pulp figures, but I'm probably not going to get round to any pulp project any time soon. But if what I take the spirit of Rogue Trader and apply it to the few Pulp figs I own? In other words, sci-fi them up!

Here's Coban Zolt, adventurer for hire. A bit of a rogue, he can be found around the spaceports of the Solumanian Reach, though he was last seen accompanying a visiting xeno-archeologist into the dusty ruins of Slovaan Prime.



Literally not converted this one (other than clipping and filing the bolt handle off the rifle), just sci-fi'd him up with the paint-job.

Nice brushwork, I can see the similarities with your 15mm style and I think it works well on 28s too.

Thanks both

That was intentional really -- for all my painting dabblings and experiments (see both scales of my old west minis for example) the one I can confidently return to consistently is this 'blacklining, triad + dot' method (fairly extreme triads with a wide use of the midtone, then a second highlight only applied with dots). It's the one style that I know I could not paint for a year and be able to jump straight back into. It's a little extreme and doesn't work brilliantly on some things (flowing robes or 'soft' shapes) but its good on these slightly cartoony pulp minis.

I really like it. The brushwork is great, he looks perfect for a RT setting, no need to convert anything, so good eye for the mini too! :)

Thanks mate - that was my thinking too, the old Rogue Trader minis were so puppy anyway.
