Post War Bolt Action Miniatures

As mentioned last year, I bought a Bolt Action US Army sprue at Warfare last year.

The sprue contained parts for five infantry but no weapons. To build a fire team of US supplied troops, I used the weapons sprue from a Wargames Factory (now available as part of the Warlord Games Project Z range) Male survivors set.

Some modification to the right hands (to grip the pistol grip of the M16) and the left hand (to grip the fore grip) was required.

The uniform is Citadel Death World Forest.
Webbing and pouches are Citadel Karak Stone.
Helmets are Vallejo US Olive Drab.
Boots and water bottles are Vallejo Leather Brown.
Furniture on the gun is Vallejo Black Grey.
Pistol holster is Citadel Mournfang brown.

Once base painted, they were dry brushed with Citadel Terminatus Stone.
Citadel Athonian Camoshade was used over the green parts and the helmet.
Citadel Agrax Earthshade was applied to the webbing, pouches, holster, boots and water bottle.

The hands and faces were base painted with Vallejo Panzer Aces flesh base. Heavy shading used Citadel Mournfang Brown with a final shade using Citadel Reikland Flesh Shade.

Oops, seems to have picked up some grass.

Fire team in action.

Now I just need the new Rubicon M4A3E8 kit to provide them with some support.

Of course some opposition is also required.

Electro-Flagellant

The Imperial Church is not a forgiving and fluffy religious establishment, there are all manner of punishments available to them to deal with those that cross them.

Such as conversion to living weapons, such as the ElectroFlagellant.

Weapons, controls and injection devices are grafted to the "subject".

Adeptus Mechanicus

This figure had the arm from an Ork character grafted on.

Imperial Guard, on a massive scale (54mm)

They also manufactured two base Imperial Guard figures.

They also manufactured some additional arms and heads so you could vary the pose.

I Am Kroot!

Back in the mists of Time, Games Workshop released a skirmish game using 54mm (10mm to the foot, 1/32-35) scale figures.

They released an odd range of figures including a 54mm scale Kroot, with strange mask, gun and glove.

I bought one of the boxed figures (supplied as assembled) and a later one that had all the options such as rifle and normal (for Kroot) head.

One day I might find and assemble the other one.

Malifaux Guild Riflemen

Three Guild Riflemen. They are not attached to their bases as I am going to undercoat them  before fixing them to the base (so they can have undercoat applied to the inside of the long coats).

 The Guild Sergeant had a number of problems with the fit of the coat. It required filling with Milliput.

Malifaux Resurrectionist Punk Zombies

The punk zombies from Malifaux are quite delicate figures. One of them has a particularly complicated construction of the head. To make it easier, I assembled the head while one piece (the face and neck) was still attached to the sprue.

Here are the three punk zombies

They are going to be difficult to store wth those delicate weapons.
