r/TraitorGuard

Wasn't my best painting but it'll have to do

This was a 2 week grind while working full time, now to do it again...

Title

Took some photos of about a third of my militia force for horus heresu

Some lads done just gotta base :)

Finally finished these after 20+ years break from Warhammer. I feel like I learned a lot since then and would like to repaint these one day. But until then I have too many projects planned.

I finished up the first 500 points of my The Damned based traitor guard. It’s been a really fun project, and now I’m musing on where to go with it next…

I should also name them. I have a vague story for them, an overworked Imperial munitorium planetary shipping depot who rebelled for better working conditions. The governor called up a regiment and sent them to crush the worker’s strike, only to find most of the constricted troops were sympathetic to the strike and switched sides, creating an armed rebellion that would go on to topple the government.

Of course, this is 40k, and as the Imperium dedicated more efforts to crush them, the enemies of the Imperium were quietly providing support, and offering spiritual relief to tired soldiers who were now watching their children come of age and join the struggle. In time, their deep hatred of their former Imperial masters made accepting the enemies of the Imperium very easy, and Chaos worship spread and corrupted their world and society.

Few would even now recognize the hate fueled, drug addled, ritually scarred trooper of today, to the noble laborers who fought for breaks and enough food to do their jobs

So, what should their home world be called?

Some screens with a cool traitorous charge a across no-man-land.

This is progress on a video game inspired by grimdark-sci-fi settings.

I am looking to make it a game were teams are composed by humans and bots. Around 15 humans and 115 bots per side, aiming to provide a "big scale" battle experience.

it would be a mix between battlefield (capture points that grant resources to use to spawn stronger units) and SW: Battlefront

I tried to be nice and grab my partner Ursula Creed for her growing Astra Militarum force, but turns out she had one in storage, so I managed to get her Traitor-ed up!

Head and club from the Palanite Justicars, shotgun from the GSC Atlantic Jackals, and the belt is from the Red Corsairs Reave Captain.

Got the scout sentinel done up, any thoughts are appreciated from you all.

please ignore the frog, he’s not letting go
