Well, here are some more:

Awesome army, I love the old school IG.

wow it is looking sharp can't wait for more

I'll get an updated group photo of this army taken in the next few days.

odinsgrandson did an amazing job on these models, especially the Vendetta.

I've been doing separate threads for some of the Praetorians lately, but here are a few that didn't show up in any of those:

What on EARTH is happening with that guy in the white robes eyes? they are either MISSING? or they've re-incarnated john lennon in the year 40,000!

Very nice work by the way! definatly love the idea!

Astropaths typically go blind once they develop their powers and Mr. White Robes is no different.

That's pretty grimdark right there

I nearly have enough for a 1k praetorian infantry army. Will get round to painting the blighters some day. nice paint jobs.

To speed things up, you should go watch Zulu!

I always feel like playing Praetorians right after watching that film. Just think of the Zulu horde as feral orks.

I can't help but like that sort of thing, though. I'm a sucker for the over the top expressive faces.

as we get older, that sort of crap happens...dammit.

I love that Sentinel, the pose looks great, really weighty (which I find tricky with the way those legs are setup).

I hadn't thought of that, but I mostly assembled the sentinels with "is this a cool pose?" thoughts in mind.

I guess I did something right.

Alright, I have a couple more photos for you lot:

The guy with the bandaged head is Marlow Fresleven, a "Counts As" for Guardsman Marbo in my Praetorian force.

odinsgrandson did a really nice conversion of a regular Praetorian trooper into Marlow. Do you have any rear shots of the miniature, odinsgrandson? The ork skull and backpack deserve to be shown off.

Drat- you're right. I know I don't have any back shots of him edited, so I can't just post one right now. I'll sift through my photos and see if I have one of his back I can size down.

they look really sweet !

Love them, really cool

Thank you.

Always nice to see Praetorians. Nice Painting.
One such army had Sentinels with a Union Jack painted to the front. Looked really characterful. Maybe an idea to consider for future Praetorian vehicle paint jobs.

These guys already have their emblems (rather than the union 'jack it is a lion based loosely on the English lion emblem).

These are fantastic, just wish i could get hold of some praetorians myself would love to have a crack at painting them i do envy you that respect

Fantastic work,I have wanted to collect Praetorians for many years ,but never have.
Extreamly nice work here ,I'm just a bit envious.

Here's something nice. My client got a hold of a classic female commissar mini (she was a limited edition at a games day event).

Anyway, here she is:

Wow I really like the combination of clean/dirty you have. The uniforms all look crisp but not exactly factory-fresh.

And not normally a fan of orgryns but yours are spot on.

Every time I read about someone's Praetorian army I can't help but think of the Gladiator scene when Russle Crowe screams "PRAETORIAN" then throws a sword into his chest!

Ok, it is pretty reasonable to think of that scene- if only because Russel Crow screams out the title.

And thanks.

Here is something that really needed to get posted up. I did these a while ago, I just haven't gotten around to posting them yet.

They are objective markers, made from the Praetorian Casualty minis that were only available in the original (limited edition) Praetorian regiment box set.

Here is a group of Kroot that were added to the force. You can't really see them from this angle, but each one has a metal color on with a few lights on it. the idea is that the Praetorian leading them can detonate their explosive collars if they get out of line.





and here's the counts as shaper with the all important button.

Good paint job dude.I like the shaper and the carapace veterans.
