Hi all,
I have a quick question regarding this miniature. I been searching the wide web for some back ground info on this specific model.
I'm trying to decide what to paint him and I'd really like to do the original colour scheme.
I've come across some photos already but can't find much else.




Primed and ready for paint






Thanks

It is the WD listing when the model was released, back in September 87 (so it says).
Poke around for that WD 93, and see if there are pics.

Is this the same model (top right):

It is now Brother Sheer

I will.
Is that white paint scheme a chapter colour or a medic?

Thanks

There's nothing I can see in the Lexicanum:

This was all before chapters really existed at all.

Some of those names are very interesting. Brother Angst made me chuckle though.

Fair enough, this is all way before my time.
I'm actually creating an army based on these old rogue trader marines. I think I'll just paint him in one of the first chapters that were released.
