Inquistion - Karamazov - All Inquisiton Released up to 5/23/2023

This post is the culmination of a three and a half year project- to paint every 28mm Inquisitor Games Workshop has produced to date. Since starting the project in January 2020, I tried to paint one Inquisitor per month, switching back and forth from the earliest release to the most recent.

Today, I finished Inquisitor Karamazov!

 

I ran into a few pitfalls along the way. Games Workshop released two Inquisitors (Draxus and Cartavolnus) while I was on the project. More problematic, I discovered I had forgotten about the Black Library limited edition Eisenhorn- it took a full year to track down a set and came down to “I know a guy who knows a guy”.

 

 

Lastly, I thought I had purchased Karamazov and had him stored, but it seems I was wrong about that, so I had to track down his metal version too. 

In the meantime, I nabbed loose Eisenhorn and Silas Hand minis from eBay, so I have a single of them along with them placed in their dioramas.

The real kicker is I can only say I have painted all the GW 28mm Inquisition for about three days, since they are officially releasing more in the new Kill Team box this Saturday... needless to say I am chagrined!!!

 

    

 

 

 

 

 

 

Inquisition Acolytes - Metal Daemonhunter and Witchhunter Ranges 2003 - Navigators

I finally manged to paint the metal Inquisition gun servitors. This completes the last of the metal acolytes from the early-to-mid 2000s Daemonhunters and Witch Hunters ranges. This is one of my all time favorite GW lines, certainly my favorite range from the 'Middlehammer' era.

 

 

 

I also recently painted a miniature designed by Heresy Labs. It is a 3d print that I picked up on eBay or Etsy, probably before I bought my resin printer. I painted him in the purples I use for Navigators. He's next to road shrine by Tesseract Tomb, which I printed on my Ender3. I added a few things to it- the statue bust on top was found on Scan the World and printed on my Mars2pro.

Lastly, a navigator from Kromlech that I think I forgot to post. 

Jokaero 40K Xenos Acolyte

I painted up a Jokaero for the 'Inq28th' in February. I was pretty thrilled when GW released this guy many years ago... little did we know he would herald a bunch of Rogue Trader era stuff coming back into modern 40k. Also, I was never willing to spend a bunch of money on the old version!

Almost done painting all of the metal 2000s Inquistion acolytes and followers now. Just a bunch of gun servitors and the metal Stormtroopers!

Inquistion and Servo-Skulls - Inq28th and ServoskullSaturdays

I've not been diligent at uploading to the blog this year, and taking a look through my entries revealed that I neglected to post a lot of entries.

Here's a collection of Inquisition and Servo-Skulls that I've completed in the last few months. I've been pretty much on track completing one servo-skull per month for #servoskullsaturday, and one Inquisitor a month for "Inq28th". I got off track in November-December due to time constraints and the fact that I didn't actually have one of the Inquisition I thought I had purchased, Karamazov on his Throne of Judgement.

 

Silas Hand,  from the Black Library Daemonifuge diorama. I'll probably add him to the base at some point.
