Ral Partha Legacy.1 Armoured Stone Trolls

 As long as I have been collecting miniatures and wargaming there has been Ral Partha.

I can still remember my first trips to the Hobby store when I was in my early teens and been overwhelmed by the ranges of figures arrayed on the shelves to pick from and being given some fantasy figures from an Uncle who had kept them from his Dungeons and Dragons days.

Last year Ral Partha Legacy was founded by Iron Winds to enable a focus on some of the classic Ral Partha range including Chaos Wars

As part of that an invitation went out for gamers to paint up some of the range that would be used for promotional use and I was amongst those accepted. A fantastic opportunity to work with some fantastic sculpts as well as showcase some of my painting. 

The first of the figures I have painted for them are Armoured Stone Trolls. Highly detailed sculpts in high quality metal, they have a huge amount of detail and convey a real sense of weight and menace to them, the sword bearers also have scaled which I always love to see.

I have painted the set in quite subdued and realistic colours as I wanted to let the detail be the focus.

Next on the table is some Artillery!

Inq15 - Administratum 2

Work on my Inq15 has continued with a lot of work on the scatter terrain which i will post up next.
i have been able to paint up some more of the Administratum war band and the first of an inquisitors war band in the shape of an Imperial Assassin!

As with the first figures, these have been based on pennies with bits and sand added to hide the bases and act as terrain floor

The cultist with shoulder mounted speakers ( the Propagandatron) i have added more directed speakers with wire and Green Stuff

The bell has been added from the GW Flagellants box

The chain gunner has beeb given a backpack and had the ammo chain extended into it.

All of the figures have also had Purity Seals added, theses have been made from Tomato puree tubes foil

The Adminstratum delegation so far

All of these are part of the Alternative Armies Hordes of the Future range

The first of the Inquistorial war band, a Callidus Assassin with transonic sword and Flachette blaster

The figure was original a dark Elf from the Real Partha  Demonworld range. The figure had two swords and i replaced one with a flintlock pistol (Wargames Foundry French Revolutionary mob weapons) and added lock of hair using twisted wire
