The end is nigh

Some survivors of whatever happened to the world we once knew and two DIY terrain pieces that make the start of my future wasteland. The survivors are from the Scene and Rebel Minis. The terrain pieces use various bits from HO scale model railroad accessories.

15mm Imperial Guard Sentinel

Back from holidays, even had the time to paint a little bit, while I was abroad. But first I'd like to show some goodies I finished before leaving.
I made my choice for the 15mm Sentinels: I took the DIMOG walkers from Khurasan. Here's number one, the other is still waiting in the painting queue.

Somewhere in the warp...

...the painting queue is very long.

I had this Epic 40k Bloodthirster for over 20 years and never found the motivation to paint him up. After discovering the Nox miniatures from Alternative Armies / The Ion Age, I decided to start some khornate chaos renegades for my 40k in 15mm games. Just like the Greater Unclean Ones he's scaling quite well to the 15mm guys. Keep in mind that the Nox wear heavy Terminator-like armor. Next to lightly protected troops the Bloodthirster looks like a monster.

When there's no more room in hell...

...the dead shall walk the earth!
All 30 zombies I painted so far. I also purchased everything undead there is from Khurasan Miniatures as I want to double numbers at least while keeping every sculpt unique. All zombies from today's post are Rebel Minis or Assault Publishing. The buildings are Bachmann's Plasticville or Kibri HO scale kits.

Looks Guard enough to me

I always regarded Ground Zero Games' NSL line as good Imperial Guard proxies, looking a little bit like Mordian Iron soldiers. The only thing missing so far was proper character models and vehicles. So I ordered some Winter Command figures from Vanguard Miniatures' Novan Regulars and a few GZG head-swaps later I was ready to go. The Ogryns are "Space Ogres" from CP models by the way.

Being proxies they are not perfect, for sure. But they look "guard" enough to me and I can field Chimeras, Ogryns, Kasrkin, Guardsmen, Weapon teams and powerfist-wielding Sergeants and Commissars. Last additions will be Leman Russ and Sentinels.

Something wicked this way comes

These guys from the scene.uk are called Karlocks and can be used for lots of settings. Weird War II monstrosities, bio-mechanical sci-fi experiments, Strogg-like creatures or even cyberdemons from hell. I will definetly play them in Bolt Action games and sci fi dungeon crawls.

A.C.A.B.

I had planned to post a ATZ batrep, but real life (I hate it!) keeps me from playing a well scripted solo game and to make a decent AAR. Short time frames for painting are not much of a problem however, and so I managed to finish some cops, a police car and even their department building. I'm quite happy with the car and will try to use these donut-eaters in the forementioned batreps to come. I hope you enjoy the pics - and always remember:

All colours are beautiful.
