So these came out of a trip to the bitz box to do some quick modeling and kit bashing.

The Adeptus Arbites are sniper scout torsos, scout legs and shot guns and Wargames Factory gas mask heads.



The boss got an arbites riot shield and a converted Space Wolf power axe.



If I ever use them they can be Inquisition henchmen with storm bolters (to account for the superior executioner shotguns) and a crusader or the worst equipped scout squad in the history of the Imperium.

Also done is an Imperial scribe/adept/sage/official (or psyker if need be)




I was aiming for something out of Jes Goodwin's Gothic and the Eldrich.



I see him as some sort of Inspector General type fishing around Imperial offices to malifesance. The staff he carries is both a symbol of authority and a 40k keycard/flash drive that gives him access to Imperial facilities. No one is too happy to see him come, lucky he has a team of well armed arbites with him.

High Elf archer body, Brettonian archer head, plague monk scroll and impressive purity seal from the Ravenwing.

Finally we have the mighty Imperial Miner



In his heavy protective smock wearing a cyber rig for drilling.

He's mostly a Brettonian Men at arms with an old pit slave arm for the drill, SM backpack and pipes from the Pegasus Chemical Plant terrain set.

I'm looking forward to seeing the finished product

Any other good ideas for civilians? I should probably do some common laborers out of catachans.

The only things that I can think of off the top of my head are Necromunda gangs or Catachans. Depending on the climate, you could use Vostroyans.

Some laborers and a panhandling veteran, all pretty straightforward kitbashes.



Painted the arbites. Years ago Scotia Grendel made some great one-pose figures, Nazi helmets, gas masks, UZIs, carapace armor and long capes. I loved them. So here's the 2012 version.



I think the capes give them a nice Roman vibe to go with the whole high-tech oppressor look.



And here they are brutally putting down dissent.



I'll have to do protestors next, throwing rocks and waving pipes and signs.
