One of My Favorite Traitor Guard Units

This is one of my favorite units.  The bits go together so well.  The arms and legs are from Victoria Lamb and the torsos are, of course, FW.  They are not complex by the Vic bits look so good with the FW bits.  The arms and legs are from the Penal Legion squad so they have shackles around their hands and feet, chains dangling from them, some are missing their shoes, etc.  I'm not sure why I painted them completely different from every other unit.  I guess just to be different.

Lost and the Damned Mutants

I was scratching my head for a bit trying to figure out how to make some decent looking mutants for my Lost and the Damned list.  I searched for bits to buy but there really weren't a whole lot out there.  So I just took lots of stuff I already had and cobbled together some mutants.  I reasoned that they didn't need hands since they would surely die on the battle field.  So I took to chopping their hands off and replacing them with spikes, blades, clubs, flails, etc.  I used lots of bits from lots of companies and various kits to threw these guys together.  They don't all match but that's okay, you can't expect a bunch of mutant freaks to have time to co-ordinate their outfits.  These guys don't even have hands for crying out loud! :)

I made a few guys into chaos 'arco flagellents' in case I want to run a radical Inquisitor Lord.  I already have the model just not all of his posse after I liquidated some stuff.  Here they are though.

Here's the whole gang from the other figures I painted up for this merry band of degenerate freaks.  A few blokes were hiding out when I took the pic so its not quite the whole gang but pretty close.  If you look closely you will see a flamer or two.  Mutants can't get a flamer but I thought I may use these guys as conscripts or renegades as well so I might as well model and paint up a few flamers for them; just in case.

Renegade AA gun

This a kit from maxmini. I really like it. Its a bit cheaper than teh FW kit and looks just as good IMO. It was a breeze to assmble and fun to paint.

Traitor Guard

I used ungor/cadins in my Lost and the Damned army for the Traitor Guard. I used the beastmen to represent the mutants. I thought it was a nice look and fun army to use. But now they have had to change a bit since the LatD codex is out of date. Traitor Guard becaome Guardsmen and beastmen become Khorne Gors

Khorne Gors

In the Siege of Vraks book 2 there is an entry for Khorne Gors. Essentially they are IG with T4 and 2 ccw. Nothing special but I've always liked beastmen.
