In Space Hulk fluff, Brother Claudio doesn't belong to either of the main squads (Lorenzo or Gideon). Rather, he's on loan from another unit and just accompanies the Librarian around.

So, I decided that he didn't really need to match either my Lorenzo or Gideon color scheme. So, when I was considering a color scheme for him, I thought about how I've never seen him survive any mission. The guy has to have a death wish just bringing close combat weapons to a genestealer action. So, to represent his suicidal nature, I made him a member of the Death Company.

I've also posted him up on Coolmini for those of you who care to vote.

Always loved the "come at me, bro" pose. Fantastic job!

Well, you may throw your rock and hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white
What's down in the dark will be brought to the light.

It was a very limited run, you needed to reserve one from your FLGS in most cases, it's no longer available, well unless you ebay one...

I keep expecting the ebay prices to go through the roof, but they've kind of settled at around $150 for the box.

The original price was $100 for the set- and honestly, it was a good price for 13 terminators, 22 genestealer and a broodlord, much less the awesome board you get with it.

Yeah $150 for a kit that was only $100 at original sell date is not bad at all. Plus the kit is just pure amazing sculpt work. By the way I love how you painted the Termie. Will always love that pose.

Yeah. From Wyrd, I was looking at the prices for their LE stuff from last year's gencon. I think the latest Nightmare Lord Chompy Bits they did went from the $60 original price to around $300.

And $150 isn't actually a bad deal for that many minis anyway. I mean, the Terminators by themselves would be somewhere in the $130 range (2 squads for $50 each, plus two more terminators... one of which is a librarian).

Great work on the golds there. They really pop out from the black. Nice and rich.

Thanks. The composition is similar to what I'm doing with all of squad Lorenzo- the red is very dark (with very light highlights) and the details are done in rather light colors- which helps all of the details to really pop out.

And, man, there are a ton of details on these minis.

I'll have to do up some Chaos marines for Space Hulk too. We shall see if your loyalty is fickle indeed.
