Rogue Trader Space Marines - two new additions to the Tactical Squad

  So I've added a pair of classic Rogue Trader marines to my planned five man tactical squad. Accompanying the sergeant is one of my favourites of the RT space marine range, Brother Slater (with scanner) and Brother Quiff.

 Slater, another Mark Copplestone model is an all round belter. The helmet has a really nice shape to it. Quiff, sculpted by Aly Morrison, has a face only his mother could love, which has also doubled up as both the faces of Inquisitor Augustus and the Traitor General from the Rogue Trooper range.

 Brother Quiff, like his sergeant, is sporting a hairstyle befitting the time period in which he was sculpted. 

 Next up with be the final pair to complete the squad, including a heavy bolter marine before tackling the main man, the inquisitor in terminator  armour.

  1. I think I said it about the Sarge, the colour pattern is really appealing. You are doing quite a fantastic job :)

    1. Glad you liked the next two Suber! Grey was always going to feature in this colour scheme. Just needed to see what worked best around it.

  3. I never clocked that that was Traitor General's head! Good spot.

    That high-contrast combo toned back with the flat neutral greys is a cracking scheme. Loving watching this project grow.
