Hey y'all.

I've been working on a Redemptionist Crusade Army List, and I've started knocking up a few test models. I'm gonna blogify it to try to motivate myself.

I decided to use chaos cultists as the basis for the army, though since I only have a few and it's going to be quite a horde I went for 3 per base. Hopefully the scenic basing makes up for this...

The basing is obviously themed on the hives of Necromunda...

Up first we have a few Brethren. These of course could neatly count as normal imperial guardsmen outside of the redemptionist list.



Chaos cultists obviously, though the head spikes have been extented to full redemptionist hoods.

Next up is a base of Zealots, made largely from Eldar guardians, with evicerators made from orc warboss weapons and greenstuffed robes.



One of the cool things about this style of basing is that when you put the bases together you can build mini necromunda diaramas:

Very cool.  I like the scenic basing.  A great idea.
I can't wait to see more.

Any idea about the pulpiteks and flakiteks?

The FW ork wagons look like they are extened rhinos so they might work.

That's all the painted stuff I have to date, but here's a selection of the WIPs:

Here's a base of bikers, easily counting as rough riders in a guard list. These are basically just ork bikes with the guns cut off and GS hoods. I like the ramshackle look for the reds.



Next up are a couple of WIP penitent engines (sentinels). These are made from the legs of old plastic sentinels, and various old ork weapons.




Here's a WIP Redemptionist Priest (commisar/commander), made from half an old eldar guardian and half a chaos cultist. Not entirely happy with him.

Lastly there's the WIP pulpitek (chimeras?). I still need to add the stained glass windows and a lot of detail before I cast it.



For those of you who aren't necro-heads, the Pulpitek is the Redeemer's personal transport.

Here's my 40k scale version...



I would post some pictures of the pulpitek in the original comic, but it's copyright.

I like the idea, but what I think is fantastic is the way the bases stack up - those mini necro dioramas are genius.

Can't wait to see what else you come up with!

Dude.  That is great.  The most out there and interesting ideas I have seen in a while.

As someone who has recently started playing necromunda again, I think the basing is just awesome.  Keep up the great job.
