Hello,
I've gotten a few models out of the painting queue.
First are some old Imperial Guard models called Mordians. I've painted them an impractical red, because I painted a few others red some years back.
I've gathered up all my red 40K models, maybe they'll be a retinue for the two inquisitors. The Imperial Guard models could be their ships crew. I hate the idea of everything in the 40K universe being manned by cyborg zombie servitors. It's plainly a waste of good cyborg parts, when you have trillions of humans eating food, you should put them to work. Use the cyborg zombies for important work.
Here's a couple French sappers, a Warlord Games and a Genie of the Guard Sapper. The sapper is just a Victrix Imperial Guard body with a Perry cuirassier head.
I saw a picture on the internet of over a hundred space marine chapters and thought it might be fun to paint one of each. To start I painted two of the easiest chapters: Death Strike and Dark Hunters. Paint completely blue, add a couple details, wash, and done.
Lastly are some old Ral Partha or possibly RAFM Africans. I painted these up very fast without any sort of reference or idea of the correct colors, so please forgive me if they're all wrong.
Till next time, when I promise to have the previously promised French Dragoons pictured. I haven't attached their scabbards yet. I've also started some Perry Prussian Reservists and some French Chevaux-Legers Lanciers. The lancers will be the 5eme Regiment because I like the colors.

Lovely paintwork and selection of figures dude.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bob
DeleteGreat looking eclectic mix of figures; love that Sapper conversion! Looks like you'll be running out of red paint too!
ReplyDeleteThanks Dean, you're too kind. I thought it was an awful mix of mediocre paint jobs. I looked at the pics and noticed I forgot to part parts of the space marines. I have a giant bottle of red paint to destroy minis with.
DeleteWhat a great variety of figures coming off your workbench! I agree with Dean, that sapper is fantastic.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jonathan, I appreciate it.
DeleteExcellent work, I like the sapper and the African troops especially...
ReplyDeleteOh my, you're going to be painting a whole lot of Space Marines. I had no idea there were that many chapters. Good God, you'll be broke when you're done!
ReplyDeleteYou do such a nice job of going from genre to genre. Not many folks can do this.
Nice work. Like the sappers. 100+ Space Marines Chapters! So if you paint one of each won't you have a company of Space Marines?! Nice idea to paint one of each. The African troops look good to me! But I'm not expert either!!
ReplyDeleteAlways good to see RT minis :)
ReplyDeleteGood show old boy!
Not the imperial guardmen I was expecting, but I was still impressed especially with the reward of seing the Genie further down the page.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on doing a figure to represent each Chapter, I thought there were 1000 ?
Your Ansar fit the bill very nicely too.
Nice variety and great painting.
