Well, I can follow that up with a nice little update.
I’ve always liked preachers and missionaries for the Imperial Guard, since my first White Dwarf featured the Sisters of Battle 2nd edition Codex and all the Ecclesiarchy models that came with them.
These two preachers have been in and out of my storage cases lots of times over the years - one is a classic Inquisitorial retinue zealot, while the other is a kitbash from the Empire wizards box.
Today, they just happened to be on my desk so with a bit of time after wrapping up work today, I knocked them out using mainly Contrast paints. I figure they can go into my Heresy Militia, or they can accompany my Imperial Guard in 40K if they ever get good rules.
While the wash was drying on them, I also pulled out a pair of plasma wielding Grenadiers that will bring my third squad up to ten models! They were great fun to paint, really fast and simple and reminded me to get back to work on that force - which I will be, since I’ve joined a Horus Heresy slow grow league!
I played my first game of the league last night, and got absolutely demolished. It was fun! No pictures though, my opponent’s army wasn’t fully assembled so I kept the camera packed away.
Four off the pile.
