Citadel Runequest Broo Regiment - second row finished

 So I've managed to get another row of five Runequest Broo wrapped up, featuring more of my personal favourites from the range.

Two of these favourites are One Leg and Tentacles. Both took a while to track down. They're both perfect as stand out individuals in the regiment.

 Unicorn is also a perfect example of the diversity this fantastic range offers. The small baboon-like creature just oozes that sinister weirdness. Exactly the sort of feel I'm after for this regiment. 

 I've mixed up the new with the first phase lot and the plan is to get another five done soon. I'm going to take a break from them for a short while to work on what will be the supreme commander of my chaos army.

 

Citadel Runequest Broo and Beastmen Update

 

 So I've been continuing with the Runequest broo but I've also included a rather rare treat into the mix: a Citadel pre slotta two-headed centaur beastman. 

 As far as I know, he wasn't part of the Citadel C38 pre slotta beastmen range, nor the C34 beastmen raiders. There's very little info out there on him from what I can see and I've certainly never seen any other painted examples of him either. I don't think I've even seen him listed on ebay since I bought this one and that must have been around 2017. 

 He's definitely quite a bizarre looking sculpt but he more than fits the broo aesthetic and just about squeezes onto a 25mm square base so ranks up nicely in the regiment. Also, he's armed with some rather contrasting weaponry; an oriental katana and a primitive, brutish club. Weird! Any more info on this fellow would be appreciated so please feel free to comment.

The ever-growing front rank of Broo 

 His comrade in arms is a classic Runequest Broo; one of the more extreme looking ones and definitely one of my favourites. I've currently got more on the go as well, plus another chaos personality, which should be wrapped up this weekend.

 

Citadel Runequest Broo

 

 So, after finishing the diorama, I took a good week or so to decide what's next. I've plenty of ideas lined up but ultimately, decided on some classic Runequest Broo miniatures. 

 I've been collecting Broo for a number of years now but have never felt it's the right time to actually crack on with them. Originally released back in 1983 (I think!), a lot of these guys featured prominently in Bryan Ansell's legendary chaos army. There are plenty of bizarre looking variants in the range and the two headed guy above is my favourite so I had to paint him first.

 The main thing that I had to think about was what skin colour I was going to opt for. I won't be painting all of them in the same skin tone but I decided on a greenish grey for the first few. 

 Some time back, I painted a classic Asgard Half Troll which will be represented as a beastlord and regiment commander. The plan is to paint a few of the broo and see how I go. Ideally, I'd like to get two or three ranks painted and now I've found a skin recipe, I feel this is pretty doable. I'm already working on more, so expect to see another broo post in a week or so.
