Inq15 and a return to 15mm!

With all my ongoing and planned projects and attempts to stay focused and not start any more (Gangs  of Rome, Dark Age) a random Charity shop find has kickstarted me into another one, and back into 15mm figures.
The find was a Matchbox Compact pop-up Playset, the Auto Centre and after handing over the princely sum of £1.50 my mind had already started out planning its conversion into a travel Necromunda


The box cover is a card insert so once it is resprayed I am planning on adding some more appropriate Grim dark artwork


No assembly required


My find was missing several of the small scatter terrain pieces and the ramps between each level but these are easily replaced and can add some ladders as well.


plan to remove the foam car wash pieces and replace it with another panel 



Bg enough for 15mm (Ion Age retained Knight shown for scale ) and even more so if i get hold of another one!

With a set of small panels, barricades and some random scatter terrain which should be able to fit in the box as well when closed, it will convert into quite a versatile gaming board

My initial gang choice was for Redemptionists and to use the Cultists from Alternative Armies HOF ( hordes of the Future) range but as i have looked into the project I am leaning more to Inq28 and the figures being a Missionary group

With my first order arriving very soon after it was placed (!) i have started work on the basing the figures on pennies and using the same hive base style as i used on my Confrontation gang. Several of the figures have also be converted, which is certainly a slightly different challenge than modifying figures in 28mm! one advantage is still being able to draw from the Bits box (mainly leftovers from an Empire Flagellants box)

For a test I have started with one of the troopers and also put together  a Servo Skull

The only change to the cultist was the addition of a purity seal.




Figures in comparison to a Confrontation Bratt ganger 

While I paint up the first batch of figures I will be working on the scatter terrain and then the main board as well as looking at the best rule set to use and modifying it for 15mm and the Inq28 narrative
