As I'm painting and modelling my gang at the moment, I thought I'd be really original and start a mini-diary for the warriors of the 'Velvet Glove'....
I'll post a few photos of what I've finished so far, and as I work on the rest, I'll stick them up too... :)

Here are the first five completed members- 4 experienced gangers and my veteran heavy....

Jarth, my Heavy.
He has been with the gang almost since it's founding, boasts an impressive experience total of 337, and has a set of skills and stats to match....
After being partially deafened in a battle against the Van Saars of 'Marcus's Lot', as well as falling about 15ft, he gained a bitter hatred for them, but got his own back by gunning down an unwary bounty hunter in their employ, and taking him captive. This resulted in a nice new mesh armour vest, along with lots of other goodies for the gang.... :D

His autocannon is a new toy, to replace his old heavy stubber.. and adds even more menace to the 'Glove... as it should at 300creds...  :;):

Looks great! :)
I was never a big Necromunda fan but I guess it is never too late to pick up the hobby... :;):

Cheers!

Torvus is one of my combat specialists..

-Also a bit of a veteran, he has several combat skills and a reasonable stat line- he lost an eye to a lasbolt, and his left arm was injured in a melee, but is still a force to be reckoned with.... :;):

'Mad Eyes' is one of the more average gangers of the 'Glove- he usually manages to pin someone down with his trusty lasgun however, and has a few useful skills, so is definatly worth keeping around...

'Fast' Jon has worked his way up from a puny juve, and is now a crack shot with his trusty bolter (with a BS of 6 he doesn't miss much!), especially with it's red-dot laser sight to add that extra accuracy....

He got the nickname 'fast' while still a juve, when he managed to survive a combat (and take out his opponent with knife and autopistol) against a tooled-up close combat monster from a rival gang, all down to his 'step aside' skill (4+ dodge save against CC hits..)..  :D

Kurt, another CC specialist...

Kurt also started off as a Juve, and soon developed characteristics that merited a chainsword and bolt pistol when he graduated to ganger status...
He has a selection of CC skills to back up his weapons, and boasts horrible scars which cause fear, which is always useful...  :cool:

Well, thats the lot so far, hope you like the pics & little biogs... there are 5 more members of the gang sitting on my desk for me to paint, along with a Ratskin who sometimes tags along...

Next up to do will be my leader.. I'll post an unpainted shot of him tommorow... :)

Again, enjoy the photos; hope it inspires some people to give Necromunda a go- it is great fun, so don't miss out if you can get some friends together for a game... (its also cheaper than 40k, Epic etc... ?:laugh: ).
?   PS, Thanks Warmaster!

...better stop posting now before I get told off... ?:;):

Barek is the second leader of the gang, drafted in to replace the first who died after only a few games...

He has pretty average gear, but tons of handy skills, including 'medic' (reroll injury results) with which he managed to save himself after a particually nasty encounter, and 'inventor'.
..note his 'impressive scars'..  :;):

...Well that took me a little longer than I'd hoped (like a month more :blush: ) ..hope you like him anyway..  :D

How exactly did you do the skin on your gang leader? It looks really cool. -Sort of like a blood splattered or something... Can't remember which movie it reminds me of...

Great work! :)

Cheers!

Ah excellent.. good to see other people can pick up on the skin- (its supposed to look scarred)- heres the process:

Basecoat Bronzed Flesh,
Ink w/ Flesh Wash,
Highlight Elf Flesh,
Ink again,
-thats the basics, then to make him look really scarred in some areas I stippled on some Dwarf Flesh, inked with Red Ink, and finally dusted on a little Bronzed Flesh to subdue it a bit...

The skin texture of the new Goliaths is quite bumpy, and ink settles in the dents nicely, which was good for the effect I was trying to achieve- it is time consuming, but worth it imo.. ?:D
...and L4- yep, they are a little 'over-inflated'...  :;):

Not bad, not bad at all. Looks like a great start to a great looking gang.
