only going to make a 1k - 1500pts army got the rhinos in the works + a repressor for the inquisitor lord (arbite Senioris) + using crusaders but storm shields + mauls and inquistor (judge) amybe with servitors with ranges
I am just wondering if people have suggestison for models/miniatures/modelling ideas
(i am fine with taking some marine or guard like units indoctrinated like)
for the following
troops
Basic arbites/new ideas for giving the basic models shotguns.
maybe using some marine scouts but using arbites models Arbite
some sort of heavy support
( atm thinking of fiddlign with the heavies which come iwth the necomunda box but its still tricky) and using them as sisters of battle Retributor.
some sort of other heavey support vehicle maybe a guard or marine one?
fast attack
no ideas for this except maybe scout bikers
elites
so many good stuff for this
unit of arco-flaggelents using the Cyber mastiff models (anyoen got ideas cause you only get 1 with the necromunda tema and atm i am only going to get one more pack of these, so will only get 3)
Assasisns of veriosu descriptions
vindicare i want a swat or similar type sniper maybe somthign like this?
i am definetly getting this one for either Calidus or Eversor
HQ
need ideas for henchmen, also for Arbites priests, althogh this might jus tend up being done using a judge model and putting a sash round him and painting it red with purity seals on it (its wha they are describe as wearing in the shira calpurnia novels)
also thinking of making a chastiser as CHirugen + throwing some other arbites in as acolytes depending on points
anyway what do people think of my ideas and any ideas for colour scheme?
will post pics of work/time allowing etc....
thanks Roadkill

The Imperium of Man is able to traverse the Warp with difficulty when their Emperor concentrates from his golden life support machine and lights the way. Unfortunately, because the Emperor has the attention span of the average 5-year-old Pokemon fanboy, this means that many an unfortunate Imperial ship has had the WTF WHERE'D THE LIGHTS GO experience, which in the Warp is invariably fatal. |

The best Arbites I found (and which I will get around to one of these days) is the Void plastic Junkers.
Scotia Grendel carries them now:

http://www.scotiagrendel.com/void_accs.html
They have shotguns, carapace armor and riot shields and are multipose figures with even more options than most GW kits.
My plan was - Arbs with shot guns=ISTs. Arbs with riot shields and bolters=sisters.

I've got a small Witchhunter Arbites force in my Inquisition collection.
I used SM scouts with shotguns, with headswaps (cadian vox helmets). Of course, I used the old metal ones, so it's a tad easier with th plastics. I have one full 10 man squad of them.
My 3 crusaders who accompany the Inquisitor (Puritan witch hunter with plasma pistol) are three CC scouts, with a maul and the other arm carrying a full shield. Also Cadian helmets.
Repressors were just built up from Rhino hulls (very minor plasticard skills needed) - I made up templates for mine.
But if I ever find those plastic Void 2.0 junkers again (they're in a box, somewhere in the house), they'll get roped in as well.

I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.
That is not dead which can eternal lie ...

It's an infinity model. I'm not sure what faction.
I do like the infinity stuff, though. Some very nice sculpts that would fit in with many near future/cyberpunk type games as well.

Here's some (really bad) pictures of the void plastics. I have about 30 waiting for me to get around to them.

I'd avoid that Inifinity mini. They're nice, but all are 30-32mm

What lines are those 2 minis from?
BTW, great idea... as far as henchmen go you may want to look at WYRD miniatures... Some very disturbing stuff in there.
