And it makes a nice change from the usual sort of basing.

Nice to see those old rats. I actually painted one in greenish colors and used (and still use!) as a Squighound for my Runtherd. Classic models with a ton of character and your paintjob really brings out the details.

Next up is another Cawdor Gang Leader who could also double as a veteran Ganger.

Ooh Arbites! They were such cool minis back in the day, and still are now imho. Can’t wait to see what you do with them. I love the ripper jacks too, a shameless Alien ripoff from GW. They look great in the black and white, nice work

Thank you youwashock, gobert, Flapjack, Kid_Kyoto, Maharg, and Viterbi.

Finished the Arbites squad, to bring some Imperial law enforcement to the Underhive. Entered them in the "Boots on the Ground" themed Monthly Painting Challenge.








Most challenging part was doing the bases, as these were slotta base models with the tab between the feet to hold them in place. I did not want to cut those off and then pin the feet to the plastic base as these are fairly heavy models. So I built the plastic card around the slotta tabs.

Lovely work as ever CB. Bases came up really nicely and a clean paintjob on some lovely minis is always a sight to see. Keep it up and good luck in the competition!
