BTW, who needs a Heavy Plasma Gun in the Underhive?

It's just as the founding fathers intended...

But seriously great work

I need a Heavy Plasma Gun in the underhive! and not for the reasons Olthannon suggested… honest! It is rather ludicrous though, it must weigh more than he does

Thank you youwashock, Stevefamine, Olthannon, Don Qui Hotep, Guardling, and gobert.

Here is the gang so far:

That's not a man holding a gun, but the other way around Great plasma glow and the current gang looks great. Hope they make it in the underhive, it's not easy being green!

Thanks Viterbi,

Another five models painted up:

They look sharp! keep it up

The Juves are so great. Let's hope they live long enough to earn their beards.

Ah, the OG Van Saar - from the Age of Lurid Bodysuits

Nice work, Cap'n.

I love visiting this blog, so many great old models and memories. Van Saars look great in the classic bright green

They look great CB!

Dammit! Youwashock stole my beard comment! they all look resplendent in their green onesies anyway

That i a pretty well armed Gang. One could be tempted to state that it is a mini army

Nice job btw brown!

Thank you Stevefamine, youwashock, Dysartes, Maharg, Olthannon, gobert, and Not Online!!!

The finished Van Saar Gang...ready to take out any vault or building.

Very nice, always good to classic paint schemes pulled off well...

Thank you Guardling.

Next gang up for painting are the Redemptionists.


Now on of those models is a Cawdor, but there are very few Novice (Juve) figures in the range (or in the group I have acquired).

Superb work on the Van Saar gang, they look ready to rumble.

I'm really looking forward to your Redemptionists because they are my favourite of the range.

Great gang shot of the Van Saar and excited for those mild-mannered looking Redemptionists.

Thanks Olthannon, I will do my best.

Thanks Viterbi.

Here was some progress before the final update.

The van Saar look fantastic Captain! Really great paint job, a classic 90s white dwarf for sure.

I like how you’ve gone for brooding black instead of the classic red fire brands. Can’t wait to see them all painted up

Thanks gobert.

Finished the five Redemptionists.







One model is a converted Cawdor so I could have some Novices. Las Pistol has been replaced with an Auto Pistol.

Ah CB they are glorious. That's such a wonderful colour scheme. Love the flames on the robes. Great shading on the flesh of that muscle bound lad with the flamer!

Oh, so happy to recognize some names from Warseer, good job on those Captain!

Awesome stuff, Cap'n. The black robes give them a much more sinister appearance.

Interesting choice with the dark scheme, Captain - question about the fire trim, though. Shouldn't the brightest colours of the flames be on the inside/bottom of the fire, as that's where it burns hottest?

Sweet flames on those gangers! I see what dysartes is saying, but heretics probably burn in heretical ways!

I love these. From the models to the paint job, they are through and through awesome.

Been stalking this thread for a while now and thought I'd comment it. Love the nicely painted old metal miniatures and scratch built industrial terrain. You've obviously been browsing Iron hands.com almost as much as I have, Captain Brown

Thank you Olthannon and youwashock

Thanks Dysartes, done on purpose, as these are fanatics who do not study anything other than destroying those not accepted by the Imperial Cult...so getting the colors wrong on their robes is just par for the course. If you check out my Sisters of Battle painting log you will see flames the right way.

Thanks gobert, who really understands the mind of burning fanatics?
Thanks Not Online!!!, and Hotzenplotz.

I do like Iron hands.com for ideas.

Slow progress on the next six.

Quite possibly the most iconic figure in the range. The nutter with the flame-throwing chainsaw. Excellent.

Yep, you’ve gotta love a chain-flamer!
