Abdul Goldberg

Every Rogue Trader collection needs an Abdul Goldberg...


For some reason, this model has always been that smarmy character to me - the bare chest, furry pimp vest, and gold chains. I painted this model last year, but he never made it to the blog...

Eldar Lightning Squad

The finished squad...



I'm on a bit of a ramble. Rather than continuing on the Eldar I've been distracted by an Imperial Guard unit and they will be up over the next few weeks. I'll return the Eldar soon...

Eldar Lightning Squad

Eldar Pirate with Shuriken Catapult!


I decided to add a blue helmet because I really liked the look of that scheme from the Rogue Trader book as well. He doesn't stand out too badly when viewed beside the models with no helmet and I'll probably have at least one more like this when I get around to painting my third Eldar squad.

Finished squad up tomorrow...

Eldar Lightning Squad

Eldar Pirate conversion with Flamer!


Strangely in the old catalog this model is listed as having a flamer, but the model obviously had a Shuriken Catapult. I scavenged flamer bits from a modern plastic model to convert the weapon.

Eldar Thunder Squad

Done and Dusted!


Really pleased with the uniform look of the unit even with the multi-colored armour. A Lightning Squad is up next week...

Eldar Thunder Squad

Eldar Pirate with a Missile Launcher!


I should mention rather than paint every model in the same color scheme, I am going to vary the armour color and use all of the schemes from the Rogue Trader book. The fluff states Eldar Pirates don't wear uniforms and many of the photos have mixed schemes. The yellow helmets will tie the models together...


I have enough old school lead to make two Lightning Sqauds, one Thunder Squad, a Harlequin Troupe (from White Dwarf, not the old Pirate list), and a handful of characters. I also have an old War Walker around here somewhere.

Salus Oll

Salus Oll is the leader of my pirate band...


He is armed with a chainsword and a bionic arm fitted with a missile launcher and auto-gun.

Here he is with some of his crew...

Pirates!

This whole week will feature hired guns for the Jokaero force. Pirates fit perfectly into my narrative (not long now until it's revealed in full) so I chose most of the models from that range, though they will work equally well in the future as mercenaries, irregular army, local enforcers, etc.



The guy at the top is supposed to be armed with a Plasma Gun...
