Citadel Runequest Broo/Beastman Regiment Complete!
As planned, along with the chaos warrior regiment, the 20 man broo/beastman regiment has also reached completion.
This rear rank is made up of some particularly unsightly oddities. Firstly we have what I think is the best model from Trish Carden's beastmen, the Bird Woman. Wonderfully grotesque and bloated, she cuts a menacing figure in the ranks. Second from left is from the Runequest broo blister pack range; a classic example of varying statures in these models.
The middle miniature is Two Heads, another classic Trish Carden model and a grotesquely bizarre addition to the regiment. The last pair are from the 1983 Vile Broo boxed set; two recent and unexpected acquisitions. Both came with separate heads and weapons. Heads were supplied randomly.
I've been wanting a finished beastman regiment for more years than I can care to remember now. The plan is to have another regiment for the army in time. I have most of the miniatures to build it but there are two or three I'm still searching for, including something extremely rare. Meanwhile, next up will be something on the large side for the army which hopefully will be finished over the weekend.

Ah! Beautiful oldschool stuff!
ReplyDeleteGreat painting!
Thanks MichaĆ! Glad you like them!
DeleteThat is just gorgeous. Proper mis-shapen old school mutant beastmen, twisted into all manner of odd shapes and sizes.
ReplyDeleteSo much more chaotic than steroid enhanced body builder beastmen.
10 out of 10.
Thanks Mike. Yes, give me this look over identically ripped beastmen any day. Sadly they went down the same route as chaos warriors in the diversity stakes.
DeleteThis unit is absolutely glorious. It's tricky to get grey skinned beastmen to 'pop', but you've certainly managed it. Inspirational stuff.
ReplyDeleteThanks very much! Yes, you're right. This was why I took so long to take this project on because I just couldn't decide on a skintone. Its mainly made up of Ironrach Skin but it's the diluted layers of Carroburg Crimson that really bring them to life.
DeleteThank you for the recipe. Much appreciated.
DeleteNo worries. I add a bit of black in with the basecoat and then shade with diluted Agrax.
