In between painting all those beards this week I’ve also been chipping away at the second half of the Skitarii Vanguard squad. Now they too are finished and ready to march across the red sands of Mars.
This half of the squad also contains the Vanguard Alpha who leads them into battle.
With these five done the whole squad is now complete, giving me a second unit of troops for the army.
This just leaves me with the Onager Dunecrawler to paint to complete my self-imposed challenge of painting the entire Start Collecting box in a month. It’s about half done at the moment so I’m going to be concentrating on it over the weekend.

Excellent, classic looking Skitarii! Can’t go wrong with Martian red.

Thank you! Sometimes you just can’t beat the classics! 🙂

You are on quite a role right now. There is either bugger all on the TV, your other half is away, or you’re holed up in another hotel! Either way we are the beneficiaries. Nice figure and I love the group shot. 🙂

Cheers! Your powers of deduction are spot on again, it’s actually a combination of all three – I’ve been on the road a fair bit lately and SWIPOTOIIGAS (She Who I Probably Ought To Obey If I’ve Got Any Sense) is visiting her brother. Plenty of time for painting then!

Once again, these are brilliant! 🙂 I just like the overall look of them, well, OK, and the very nice paint job!
November 26th, 2021 at 8:41 pm
Thank you! They really work nicely as a group don’t they? 🙂

Excellent again mate – lovely to see great miniatures done so well 😁👍
November 26th, 2021 at 8:42 pm
Cheers very much dude! 😀

I really like how they are coming along. They do Mars proud.
Cheers,
Pete.

Thank you! You’ll have to get yours off the sprue soon, the Omnissiah’s legions always need more recruits. 🙂

These are excellent, looking forward to the group shot when you complete your self imposed deadline!
November 27th, 2021 at 11:08 pm
Thank you! I’m really looking forward to that final group shot myself. Even better than that though we’re only a month away from the end-of-year army shot, that’s going to be a good feeling because I reckon I’ve really made progress with this collection at last. 🙂

They must have given you a Thanksgiving Break because that’s the only way I can explain all of the painting you’ve been doing! From Ogres to Ad Mech, you’re painting some of my favorite Warhammer subjects. The squad looks fantastic and I look forward to the Dunecrawler. That will be a nice change of pace for you!

Holidays?! What are those? Sometimes I’m not sure my boss has ever heard of them…
Glad you’ve been enjoying these recent pieces, the Dunecrawler is finished now, definitely a challenge but I’m pleased with the results. As for Ogres I’ve just put the finishing touches on another one so expect to see him tomorrow. 🙂

Your boss might be a Chaos god then, mate! Probably Slaanesh or possibly someone the Dark Eldar worship 😀
It sounds like you’ve tee’d up some good updates for me this week. I appreciate it and look forward to seeing both things you’ve been working on!

Lovely work – I do love a nice set of Red Admech annd these guys are certainly very nice – but looking at the recent post titles – should this be Part 4?
November 27th, 2021 at 10:50 pm
Oops! You are spot on, clearly I can’t count (it’s an Ad Mech problem – we don’t believe in numbers other than 1 and 0). Fixed it, cheers for letting me know. 🙂

They look great. Love the slight Roman/Cylon theme to the models as well.

Thanks! I really like that aesthetic about these models myself. 🙂
