The Arbites sculpts still hold up today, and you have done a smashing job on them. Is there any secret to how you get such a matte look to them?

Totally agree. I wish someone would do a 3rd party version of them, keeping the uniform ranks on guard look

Thank you Arakasi, youwashock, Ezki, and Viterbi,

Due to shipping delays, my plans for a Delaques for a fifth original gang are on hold. So to meet the Unofficial Monthly Painting Competition, I will use the Pit Slaves and add three Spryers.

Primed.


These were eBay saves, so happy with how they look primed after all the washing in Simple Green and the scrubbing that followed.

Thank you Guardling and Olthannon,

So I have two Necromunda projects on the go. Finish painting the three remaining Spyrers and start another terrain piece (this time a 2 x 2 foot board).

WIP Spyrers.

Those spyrers are brilliant minis - and new to me! Excited to see where you take them.

Great skin tones on the pit slaves too.

Board will look great painted up - you are a master of rusted metals!

Keep it up, CB!

The Spyres are truly old school. I know you will do a great job on them. The pit slave with the large saw was one I really wanted to get. I was hoping to convert a Ard boy for my Orks with that one. The work you do brings alot of memories back. Thank you

Pointer, look up the user BigWaaagh and his for sale thread, he has a load of Pit Slave lots in their blister packs and I think each pack has three weapons for two models, so you just have him find one with the buzz saw. Then you will have two complete Pit Slaves and a buzz saw for your Ard boy.

The table is progressing:


The Spyrers are also getting some paint.
Spoiler:

But they are way behind my schedule and need to get finished this week.

Three more Spyrers. So if one of the group selects the Spyrers as their gang, they have options.

I hadn’t noticed the streaks on the squares when you last posted. They add a great bit of texture to the board. It’ll look great amongst your collection of terrain

Still looks fantastic, the variations with the amount of rust and slight color differences make that table look more realistic in my mind.

just put down some models and the old rulebook next to them and you complete the competition

I really should do the miniature book...but what you suggested would bring some chuckles.

Sheesh I dont check in and you have all this great stuff your working. I never played Necromunda but always like the idea of the Spyrers. Delaques really have that matrix look to them. Nice work as usual Cap!

Really impressive output here, Captain Brown. I didn’t realize you were going to paint every single Necromunda model from the original range! I am loving the classic color paint schemes. I hope you do a photo shoot of the entire collection when you finish. Maybe get some friends together for an epic old school campaign using these gangs.
