It doesn't take much sometimes to derail what is otherwise a quick win.
I'm once again struck how wonderful these old models are. I know the new ones are all cool and shiny but these have so much character.
They definitely suit the Genestealer Cult aesthetic much more.
My 'crop-top' scouts remind me of the Forgeworld Elysian Drop Sentinels.
As such a small amount of kitbashed roll-cage would have dipped into that theme, but cutting the lot off is much easier! 😎
There is a subtle difference in my newer Sentinels compared to the older ones.
The yellow is richer, the weathering has more contrast and the numbers/letters are slightly different.
But it's not that obvious and I think they make a great quartet.
I've still quite a few GSC things to do. Some Neophytes and Acolytes but that's so far down my list of things it's not even funny.
I do have a Chimera to paint up as well, which is more likely to get done than 20 or so highly detailed infantry. But when I do the Chimera it'll be so much fun to have alongside these fellas in rusted yellow.
And another Great Big Wooden Stamp of Approval.
Here are the pics on a white background. Not much else to say, just enjoy the hobby.
