Hello chaps and chapesses.

I've been mucking about with these for a while - as in, before GW brought out their lovely new plastic cultists! Started off with converting various plastics with Victoria Miniature and Pig Iron heads.



Then I added some Mantic Plague figures.





Not happy with these -


I am happy with these -

Those genestealers are brilliant nice work

Very cool conversions, congrats !

Very nice conversions and scenery!

Those kick arse Sir. Very, very cool.

Awesome work!

Perfect for a co op Necromunda big bad.

Cool 'stealers mate !

How about some stout fellows to hunt them down?









Still need do do more of these. More troops to come, plus an Ordo Xenos warband . . . with assistants

Amazing, nothing else to say

Looks like I'm back online again. Huzzah!

My genstealer cultists are finally finished. Based, varnished, done. No more. Nothing left to do. Unless GW release something stunning soon, I can't see me doing any more . . . oh, hang on!





And Ive been having a bit of fun with my rats. Has anybody else tried these? Quite characterful and nice to paint. Think they'd make good opponents to the Adeptus Mechanicus. If only I had some . . .



Here's the Rat Mother -




Big fella with a drill -




Troops -




I'm about a third of the way through painting this lot. I got them from Mantic's Deadzone Kickstarter. I've got one of their drill transport on the way at some point. Wouldn't mind a few more troops though, I've rather enjoyed painting them, except for the part where my Humbrol gloss varnish turned them all white! Fortunately the Testors Dullcote cleared them up. Thank you Dullcote!

This lot hate having rats in their lovely machinery -



This chap turned white, like the rats, before Dullcote sorted him out.



This is a crappy Mantic Dreadball figure. I couldn't be bothered doing an entire team, buut I thought he might make a nice combat drone -



Troops -




Think they'll do as a warband.

Back to buiding my Imperial Welsh Guardsmen. Because of house moves and stuff, I don't think I'll be able to paint them for a good while. Bum.

Oh wow lots of cool stuff in here. Love those genestealer conversions.

"The scouts have come in from the hills sir...Genestealers. Thousands of 'em."

Great job!

Ooh, gribbly...

That's some inspiring work right there! Every army should have a battle camel.

I really like your Genestealer cult. The less uniform appearance makes the hybrids look more like their genes are being overwritten rather than fitting into neat generation categories. They look more like what GW have now called "aberrants".
