Bloody hell, Rosie!

"The Radical Roses are known for their great convinction, bringing swift ends to the enemies of the Imperium. Lead fiercely into battle by Sister Superior Rosaene, they're living up their names, because whatever the cost, they will bring down their enemies..."

The Radical Roses, Sisters of Battle Kill Team.

Got to say, I'm impressed! Rosie is the first of our group to finish painting her Kill Team and they look great! Rosie has chosen to paint them up as Sisters of the Order of the Bloody Rose, since she really liked the red and black colour scheme. The name of that order seemed appropriate aswell, haha!

Sisters Superior Rosaene, Leader of the Radical Roses.

Sister Superior Rosaene, Back.

Sister Superior Rosaene was quite a conversion, using one of the "Geminae Superia" from the Celestine, the living saint kit as a base for this model. We loved the dashing pose, which really showed the character of the Radical Roses! Going fiercely into battle and jumping straight to the enemies! We also used the head of Neave Blacktalon of the Warhammer Age of Sigmar line to customise this model some more and to finish it we added a classic Sisters of Battle backpack.

Sister Sariah, Sister Katheline and Sister Eleanor.

Sister Annilia, Sister Cathena and Sister Maisente.

The other Sisters of Battle are just the regular oldschool models, which we got in a pretty good deal! Rosie really wanted to go for the Sisters of Battle and since we still have to wait for the plastic Sisters of Battle to arrive, this seemed the best way to go for now. I actually like the look of the metal miniatures, since they bring such an awesome nostalgic feeling with them. They  bring me back to my childhood, haha! I think Rosie did a really awesome job at painting them and made some nice progress along the way. One of the things she learned is how lenses are meant to be paint for example and they are coming along nicely.

Since there are no rules yet for using Sisters of Battle in Kill Team, we decided to use them as count as Tactical Space Marines. The storm bolter on Sister Cathena is actually used as a heavy bolter for now because it's quite easy to distinguish from the other weapons that are being used.

Well that's it for now, some nice progress was made this week! I'm currently working on restoring the terrain that was damaged when Jet decided it was a good idea to jump on a board full of terrain... You can actually see some of the terrain in the background of the pictures above. It's also really cold here right now so I can't prime any of my mini's... Lucky for me, I've have enough to do...Haha. When I'm finished with repairing the terrain, I will definitely post it!

Untill next time,

Undesirable No. 1.

Hey all! I just wanted to show these beautiful miniatures Roos painted a while ago!


Roos is a really big fan of the Harry Potter books and movies and really likes to be creative. So I told her about the Harry Potter range from Funko Pop and that people customize them by painting them for example. She really got excited of this idea, so we decided to order some of the Harry Potter Funko Pop keychains and started customizing!

So I removed the eyes and the noses of these figurines and sculpted some hair on Ron Weasley to make him stand out from Harry Potter. The Ron Weasley Figurine is actually the same as Harry Potter, only with it's glasses removed. We couldn't find a Ron Weasley in that scale, so we had to make one ourselves.

After that, Roos painted the figurines and I got to say I was really impressed by the results. I really love the way how Roos painted them up and I think they look awesome! :) They give me this feeling that they look like illustrations from a children's book, which I think is really cool! I hope you like them as well!

That's all for now, I hope to show some more miniatures and maybe even some terrain soon!

Untill next time,

Tom
