I'm about two months behind on my 40K Adventurers project, but still chipping away. Up for perusal is the Squat Miner and Engineer from the Adventurers range, along with a couple mole mortars they use for surveying, a ratling security guard ('Shorty', from the Mercenaries range) and a Squat crewman.
I had a hard time coming up with a color scheme for them, which was why it took me so long to get around to committing. I ended up using an old Rogue Trader illustration, along with the box art from the 1970's TV show 'Electric Company'.
Really nice! I'm a big fan of the non-combat vibe going on in this scene - it really does look like a group of surveyors plotting the levels for a new road. The retro 1970s colour scheme works brilliantly too.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I built about 20 more squats, hope to make a nice little expeditionary group.
DeleteReally fun squats! But I think the real star of the show is the chipping effects on all of the yellow bits. Stunning!
ReplyDeleteThanks, chipping effects are fun to do, any excuse I can find for it :)
DeleteThese look lovely. I think the choice of colours is a total win, it adds 'that' touch. Really great.
ReplyDeleteThanks Suber- I spent weeks looking at these guys without inspiration then it suddenly clicked :)
DeleteThey look great! The wacky colors are perfect for Rogue Trader figures.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mouse :)
