Reckon you made the right call on avoiding 'clown' colours - they'd just look derpy like that. Like this, they're bloody terrifying.

Working on some civilians, found some figures in a box that will work just fine.

They are from Scribor. Not amazing sculpts from a technical point of view (was a partial fingerprint hard-cast on one model), but on the other hand they were really well cast so clean-up was comparable with most other models anyway. Really characterful dudes and fun to have just 'cause.
I imagine them being some menial ecclesiarchy members have done something stupid and as penance being sent down to a settlement to ensure the followings of the Church are obeyed.
Something like that. They probably think they are really important, and everyone else just finds them annoying.

Yeah cool, I've only got one scibor model so far which i was pretty happy with. will look into when next inspired to order!
Made some more civilians from headless/armless bodies I had i a bitz box.
I like the guy in the middle, I think he is trying to sell a whole big box of death-sticks!
Now I got 12 civilians and a big robot, so I guess it's time for some new scenarios!

Awesome. I just ordered some civvies, keen on that scenario in GW3. I like the colours, superficially bright, but then up close they look gritty and suit the grimdark
Thanks! Yeah the bright colours are on purpose, my Delaque on the first page have much darker and more natural tones, which look cool but I noticed that it sometimes makes them a bit hard to see on the board!
Having up to 12 extra civilians that might run about semi-randomly made me want to paint them so they stand out on the board.
There will be enough stuff to think about without accidentally forgetting you had a civvie right next to your dudes, and then getting shot by said civvie because you didn't see the model.

I love those new civilians @totgeboren - can you give a breakdown of parts? About the only thing I recognise is the old Cadian loader
@jonbo
In the first pic with 5 models, model #1,2 and 4 are from Pig Iron Productions, the Kolony Milita HQ pack with I bought when it was released, since it was the only way to get the gasmask officer heads at the time. When I got them, I had no plan on using those models, nor did I have any use for the nifty robot.
Model #3 is of course a old Cadian loader, which my older brother planned on redoing into a lascannon loader, but the model ended up headless in a bitz box, and has been there from 2ed to now!
Model #5 is a old Bretonnian Archer I think, perhaps? He has a bag though... He was also lacking a head and his right arm. I'm unsure where his right arm is currently from, I think it might be for a IG vehicle crewman or something like that.
All models have heads from Puppetswars.
In the second pic with 13 models, the yellow Servitors/Robots are either from that Kolony Milita HQ pack, or converted Warmachine models, though the larger robot at the back is actually a super-old GW model, but one arm should go on a different Robot body, and the back gun is missing.

Very cool stuff man dem clowns ugh. Also I really like your interpretation of the yellow king from the cuthlulu mythos fantastic! And cultist Chan....man...and I agree there needs to be more civillians to cause utter havoc all you're missing is a lady or mutant with very questionable morals and a dude in a purple suit. Keep on trucking man
I like your civilians a lot. Got to get me some as well. Looking forward seeing more from your work!
Ordered some cheap aquarium gravel filters from China, painted 8 pieces and cut up 4 to make anchor points and railings. They can be attached to make longer or shorter bridges, or even L-shaped bridges with three anchor points or whatever.
The railings are plasticard pieces attached to filter sides that have the correct connectors, so I can move them around as I please. I also reduces storage space.

Folks in my local group have been stocking up on those aquarium filters too. I bet some business analyst in Suzhou is seeing some really weird sales forecasts for fish habitats.
