Greetings!

Here's a pack of fierce "cyber ghouls", feeding their blades with flesh and blood, rushing with hunger for death in their cold empty eyes, murdering for the sins of their Mother.

And the story behind them is as follows... About a year ago PDH asked a bunch of guys around Europe if they would be interested in doing a sort of surprise collaboration for a game of Inquismunda they were about to play at Warhammer World. Well, we, the Spiky Rat Pack were also on the mailing list of PDH's and of course responded to his call.

We had couple of months time to do our secret porjects. Mikko, the other half of the Rat Pack, did a splendid Living Coffin Psycho-Gorilla thing that even Jes Goodwin has been wondering. I, in the other hand, decided to play with an idea of creating this macabre, blood thirsty, chainblade wielding ghoul who I called, for a lack of a better name, Stryderre.

Living Coffin and Stryderre made their journey to England and played their part in the grand game that was played on neil101's magnificent gaming board, Yggdrassillium.



Some time after the game I was commissioned to do more of the Stryderre-kind of thingies, and so I did... They became to be known as Arco Evisorators, created from the ancient templates by the Archao Archivist Biologiysts...





The original Arco Evisator, Stryderre, and the new pair made their appearance in a game of Confromunda at Warhammer World. The game was played between Spiky Rat Pack and seven other like-minded and talented hobbyists and professionals (PDH, neil101, JRN, Fulgrim, Jon, TamTam and John Blanche).

When we got back from England, I announced that I would be open for commissions. That announcement spawned yet another task to do more of the fierce Arco Evisorators, this time a pack of six...




So there you go! Hope you like them as much I liked doing them

EDIT:

Forgot to mention that the red bases were not made by me but John Blanche, so credits from them goes to him.

Great conversions, great paint job - thanks for sharing Kari.

Amazing job mate!!!

Those are amazing looking.

Cheers bubber, Devoted of Slaanesh, Barksdale, jah-joshua and disdamn!

5 shades of awesome!

Wow they're amazing. You managed to capture the expression on its face so well, that deserves praise.

Thanks rustproof and Sledgio!

Brilliant - concept, construction and paint are top-notch.

Cheers Scott!

very nice... scary even!

10/10 Amazing.

Thank you, easysauce and VeteranSgt.Ryokai!

Here's my latest finished miniature, a Slaaneshi Cultist.



The colour scheme for this merry little gang will be apple greens and patinated bronze, along with fiery orange and red as complementary colours. The base was pretty much inspired by the works of Migsula and JRN, maybe not that obviously but you can find the resemblances.

The group will be portrayed as agile and cunning, with the taste of gluttony and lust. My plans are to add couple more skinny-like members, a chubby with a heavy weapon (noize gun maybe?), a standard/icon bearer and a priest of sort. We'll see how that will turn out...

This stuff is amazing! I especially like the faces of the models, they're really expressive. Unusual choice of colours for the Slaaneshi cult, but it works.

Thanks Crimson!

Nice!! Glad you reposted new figures on this thread because I had missed the first set.

Really great! John Blanche style, my favorite!

Thanks Kelly502!

Love the models feel very Slaaneshi! Really love the CC guys, paintjob looks awsome.

Cheers elaps!

WOW! Very John Blanche. Amazing work!

Thanks westiebestie!

Can't praise enough these look sick! Great job!

Fantastic unit! I actually thought of the pitures of the board you mentioned from the WD article, without even knowing it had any connection to it.

Thank you, DarkHero and Bonde!

That is amazing, you've got some very nice nuances going on there and it creates a work of art!

Thanks Cave_Dweller!

Hi y'all!

A friend from the USA asked me if I was interested in creating an Inquisitor character for him based on an illustration decorating the Inquisitor game rulebook page 72.

I tried to copy the essence of the character from the illustration in to 3D as well as possible. I also made some alterntions to make him look more like my own version – or vision. This kept the task both interesting and more creative.

There were some specific request from the commissioner for the task. One of the things he really wanted to be given for the character was the skull-in-a-box, the same kind of thing that Preacher Josef is carrying with him.

But without any further words, here's the Inquisitor...
