Nobody Expects the Finished Inquisition!

 I can finally call these guys done. They fought me every inch of the way, and it shows, but I am happy with some of them, at least. 


Enlightened and Interrogator

The Interrogator is holding a copy of the most recent Kill Team rules. 


Tome Skull and Autosavant 

These are my favorite guys. The Tome Skull text is hand-painted. I painted a bit of subtle OSL for the candle light on the Autosavant. They were fun to paint. 

Servitors 

Plasma and Heavy Bolter shown here. I also have a Melta barrel. The weapons are magnetized and hot-swappable.

Death World Veteran and Penal Legionnaire

The DWV is painted after Sargeant Stone, from the old 54mm Inquisitor game. The penile Penal Legionnaire looked a bit Hive-Worldy, so I did him up like that. 

Pistoleer and Questkeeper

The Pistoleer is the coolest dude. 

Hexorcist and Mystic

I got a set with the Ashes of Faith boxed set, but added another since most of the bodies can be used for two different characters. I did end up with a spare Autosavant and Tome-Skull, but I'm sure I'll find a use for extra robots down the road.

Close Quarters: Taking Your Kill Team Into the Dark

This was a nice big project, but I got to burn through a ton of B movies while painting. I'm glad to have both open and closed boards for my new favorite skirmish game!

Infinity Haqqislam: The Daylami


N2/3 Daylami

I've been working my way through a new Infinity army, the Hassassin Bahram. These are a subfaction of Haqqislam consisting largely though not solely of specialists of various sorts. 



Current Daylami


Daylami, pictured here, are experts at being cheap, disposable and dangerous. Their role is to hide and present something dangerous, then pop put and fire an antitank missile at an approaching baddie.

Voidscarred Corsairs are my third Kill Team

I should not have bought a new Kill Team with five unpainted ones in the queue, but I couldn't resist. These Voidscarred are a call back to the OG 40k, and every single one of them is a great sculpt. 


Starstorm Duelist 

Kurnathi

Felarch

Soul Weaver 

Kurnite Hunter

Shade Runner

Blaster Gunner

Shredder Gunner

Way Seeker 

Fate Dealer


I really leaned into these guys. It was fun, but I dunno if I will keep up this level of intensity. There's a joy and a freedom to sketching!

An Obsolete Terrain Board.

 I was halfway done before I found out that this terrain wasn't suitable for Kill Team 2021. Argh! Those doors took so long! 


Ah well. At least now I have some sci-fi doors. 



Edit: here are some better pics of the individual pieces:

My Three-Body Problem

My three-body problem is: 


Is this one building? 


Or is it three? 




This great kit was a recent gift. I think it'll make I nice strongpoint, or a table quarter's worth of urban sprawl. I'm even tempted to paint up my MDF stuff now!

And now the Navy Breachers

 The dam has burst and I am eager to paint up these cool little team projects. 


Breach


and Clear

I painted them up in the same uniform colors as the Voidsmen in my Rogue Trader retinue (previous), as I imagine they are from the same ship, valiantly blocking the Gellerpox Infected from the shuttle so the retinue can escape. 

I had my first game with them this week - the game is fairly complex, but starts in media res so there is action from the jump. It's got legs for sure! 


Warcrow - the Adventure Begins Again

So it's time for my annual foray into Warcrow Adventures, Corvus Belli's tabletop Dungeon Crawler. This time though I plan on trying...
