Well done, they could be the "expendable" part of some warlord's/pirate mixed race crew, with the scum of various races working under him.

@Grumpy Gnome I'd the same thinking, but with an head swap, adding helmeted heads they could pass for other foes, such as Espos(from B. Dailey's Han Solo Trilogy), the private and ruthless militia ...
It could well be the story of an Imperial Inquisitor with the best of intentions who figures out just how messed up the Imperium really is... and tries to do good despite the obstacles put in front...
@Mark Dewis German pistols were very popular btw allied troops, expecially the Mausers or the Luger artillery models, so it isn't illogical give one to allied characters. The hats on the contrary p...
They could take inspiration from Ciapas Cain's novels, were the protagonist isn't a saint, but neither a fascist bully, only an(improbable) hero, that try (successfully) to survive in an universe o...
@Graham Beattie Fine, but you'll need some saddles, WGA's horses don't have any, only a blanket. I think that some generic chinese rebels, either male and females could be made, either for Tai-Ping...
@Pierre Lerdou-Udoy Merry Christmas to you and your family, I agree with your comment completely and would have left them all together, but now they have this "English Print firm" going I thought, ...
@Grumpy Gnome The maxim, absolute power currupts, could not be more factual, in both the portrail of Star Wars and 40,000, but even star wars got some light and good viewing. Lets hope @Benja...
I look forward to seeing some photos of the security printed, in some of the renders the shoulders/arms look awkwardly placed and over wide.
While I like anti-heroes as a concept, certainly more than Mrs. GG does, I am a bit tired of edgy, cynical dystopias. Andor surprised me by convincing me to enjoy a show I thought I would dislike. ...
@Geoff Maybury yup, I tend to pick it up in WH Smiths (much as I hate the money-grabbing killer of independant magazines... another story entirely...) when I get to one, seems the only regular sour...
@Nanashi Anon That's got to be the Trolls - the only stuff currently on the way for Classic Fantasy are Halfling Cavalry, Trolls and Treemen, and of those three these bodies are clearly Troll-like,...
Nice work. I have too many of these buggers lying around. Anyone remember the metal Gorkamorka ones they're based off?
@Nanashi Anon @JTam Armour is very ahistorical. If they're undead Romans, I'd be disappointed. My guess is Trolls, which I seem to recall were on the production list somewhere. Bigger models, not...
@JTam There's a higher res picture available if you click on it: The list of releases did say WW1 nurses. My guess is they're multinational and have weapons options from French, German and Briti...
@Bill Thomas The three part Silver Bayonet campaign was good. I particularly enjoyed the Silver Bayonet cover art they had on the one issue.
@Geoff Maybury Awesome Brother! In the ARVN section the Ranger with the Tiger helmet is wearing some type of ERDL. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vietnamese_Rangers https://en.m.wiki...
@Nanashi Anon . The WGA Goblins are already pretty well armoured. Orcs? Roman Orcs ?!?
First five of ten space gobbos painted up for a Stargrave crew or to use as pirates. These modles have been trickier to paint than I had anticipated but I think they are turning out pretty well. I ...
@Alessio De Carolis indeed. If those are 25mm bases, my guess is these are not going to mix well with 28mm ranges, and are more likely to be 32 or 35mm figures. I'm having great trouble in finding...
If you need a sympatheic hero, 40K is big enough for that. It just won't be at the big end of town. It may be worth looking to Aliens; the enemy is feral and lethal, but the powers that be are corr...
I think a " humans are the goodest-good guys" approached could work if they made it clear it's a narrator bias thing, but Amazon projects are broken from basic casting so I'd have no confidence the...
@Grumpy Gnome You're not wrong, but it can totally work if done right. 40k, 2000ad...hell, a lot of British IPs feature anti-heroes that people love, and in a strange way, come to identify with.&n...
@JTam @Bill Thomas Brought it regulary for a few months from a "Sainsburys" store in Wolverhampton along with Table Top Gamming, the two mags for £4 -95. Was I pleased, then we moved back to ...
@Hudson Adams Could not resist those bots ordered some this morning just after adding, I would have had the pallet load as well but it`s comming out at 1/48th scale, and only one pallet. I`d like 1...
It looks like Cavill negotiated the rights with Vertigo to be executive producer with GW oversight.
@JTam The M38A1 was the last Willys I owned, the 1952 korean war jeep, still used by the Marines in 1965 when they went into "Nam". They like me, loved the 24 volt electrics, the dampered stearing,...
Wait, did GW change hands or did somebody buy film rights?
@Grumpy Gnome As an none GW person, I strangely would like to see a good Warhamer 40,000, so my heart says, all the best to them. (There`s always room for more Si/Fi, particulary if its reaso...
Those look amazing! Do they advance under a creeping barrage? 😉
How about some ACW Quantrils raiders to go with your horses?
Still waiting on Warlord answering my email about the wrong sprues, I'm probably going to have to phone them since they are apparently ignoring the email. My last order (bikers) is apparently on th...
I like Dux Britanniarium by Toofatlardies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VqFXI7XvVvA https://toofatlardies.co.uk/product-category/dux-britanniarum/
@JTam yup, I thoroughly enjoy the magazine as it's very well written generally and their production values are pretty darn high... I've really enjoyed their Silver Bayonet campaign, and the Wild We...
Keeping the helmet on was a key part of the success for me. And I think it helped prove a lead can still do brilliant job with their face obscured. I really do not understand why so many producers/...
If you have ever heard of Warhammer Armies Project I've been using my conquistadors for that. It's one of the largest fan recreations of warhammer fantasy and the army count has been essentially do...
What game systems do people like for this time period? I'm aware of SAGA and the age of invasions module for that game. There's also the more genericly broad historical systems like hail caesar. I ...
Well after the Chernobyl tier disasters that were Wheel of Time, and Rings of Power, I'm not exactly expecting anything beyond horrible.@Grumpy Gnome Funny you mention the second Judge Dredd...
A “there are no good guys as per official GW” Grimdark 40k Movie that brings the satirical “there is only war” British IP to mainstream international audiences…. What...
I'm sure you've all heard by now: the perpetually jilted and criminally mistreated Henry Cavill is working on a Warhammer 40k show to be aired on (but apparently and thankfully not produced by) Ama...
Ok thanks! I should have known! I don't have that one so maybe I should pick it up.
It's not so much that I think Vercingetorix's Gauls would look much different, just that they'd be an easy fit in the theme and Gauls as a whole are under represented in non-metal minis. Yes, plen...
@Allan Lougheed Really interesting stuff. Thank You. The above excerpts where from: A good read.
@Hudson Adams My ability to post seems to be back .... Thank You!
This was posted about DEC releases: So far the releases have far exceeded my expectations. Very excited to see what the WW2 (my main area of interest) release is.
@Steffen Seitter Very cool. Wouldn't know how even to begin on sculpting something like that.
@Bill Thomas I've not subscribed to the vault as of yet. The subscription IS expensive. Probably even more so Stateside than in the UK. I try and justify the subscription with: 1.&n...
@Hudson Adams This is great news! @Bill Thomas That's good to hear. Prices seem very reasonable too.
