r/Inq28

Had an idea for one miniature and ended up building a squad. First few done. Another 3 to go. Then need to make an inquisitor.

The crowdfunding campaign for my INQ28 ruleset book started a couple days ago and we already reached the first stretch goal! Fingers crossed we can reach the next one :>

Check it out if you're into mixing TTRPGs with skirmish wargaming with a grimdark flair.

As soon as I saw the dark commune miniatures I had an idea. So far I’ve only managed one of the bashes out of the four planned, but here he is.

The creature was not bred, nor was it trained. Yet one hunter saw something familiar in its aggression. A useful creature need only learn who feeds it (and who hunts beside it).

Inqtober 2026, day 4: Sensei

Bearing the Mark of the Star Child, the man currently known as Warinus Jiraud has lived and died a dozen lives.  Sought heavily by the Inquisition, he fights a secret war against the horrors of the Immaterial- daemons that call him an Anathema, for his mysterious powers can bring them true death. He has accumulated a small band of loyal followers willing to follow his dangerous orders, companions whose lives he has touched in some way. But his enemies are many, and mighty.

Varin is a newer addition to the retinue I have been building. A navigator of great knowledge and a multitude of experience. His grim appearance unsettles most who encounter him; as it’s not known if his appearance is his real skull or a mask that is worn.

In the crowded plazas of the middle hive, music is one of the few luxuries available to everyone. The performer sits beneath flickering lumen strips, plucking an ancient lute while workers hurry past without looking.

Inqtober 2026, day 3: Beastfolk Servant

Labeled as Abhumans, Beastfolk are seen in more progressive areas of the Imperium of Man as servants, or put to use as cannon-fodder. Citizens consider brutish and stupid, and most people have little care for them. However, some make a point of how accepting they are- dressing them up, painting their horns and hooves, and (of course) equipping them with low-grade explosives, in case they become a danger or get ideas of ‘freedom’. These can be something of a showpiece, demonstrating what kind masters they are to such poor unfortunate sub-creatures.

Inqtober 2026, day 5: Street Performer

Verity Zhiyang has always had an aptitude for acrobatics, and failing out of the Administratum intake school due to some kind of attention disorder made performance a natural progression. Every day, she pulls in crowds willing to cough up at least a couple Throne Gelt, enough to keep her in synthprotein noodles and pay off the enforcers that shake her down. But the crowds are starting to feel like her performances are bland, pushing her to incorporate sharpened blades, flaming torches, and even one enthusiastic Sororita’s chainsword, in an effort to stay thrilling.

His masters tolerate his presence so long as the estate remains immaculate, for his kind is considered useful so long as it knows its station. Beyond the estate walls, millions in the hive toil in conditions scarcely better than his own. Yet here, beneath chandeliers and gilded aquilas, he is far more safe than on the streets.
