Inquisitorial Stormtroopers

As well as my other Daemonhunters Inquisitorial Stormtroopers which are based on the Cadian Kasrkin I have also decided to add a unit based on the Tallarn or I may just use them as inducted Imperial Guard.

The first stage was to base them, and like many Citadel Miniatures the Slottabase™ tabs are way too thin for the Slottabase™ slots. So a large amount of Green Stuff was required to ensure that gaps were not only filled, but also to stop the troopers leaning over.

You can see how they will look by checking out the workbench feature on the Tallarn blister.

Inquisitorial Stormtrooper Repressor basecoat

I have added more of the Repressor basecoat.

I used the Citadel Foundation Paint, Tausept Ochre.

At this point the Dozer Blade is not attached and will be glued on once the model has been painted fully.

Inquisitorial Stormtroopers

With my Inquisitorial Stormtroopers I was giving them a desert feel I knew I was going to use sand, but also wanted some rocks as well, so I used some slate from the Warhammer 40K Urban Basing Kit. Having added the rocks I then using PVA (white glue) flocked the based with some Games Workshop sand. I do like the sand which has some small larger pieces of gravel, which adds a lot of nice texture. Once dry I then painted the bases Bestial Brown and drybrushed them with Bleached Bone.

Inquisitorial Stormtroopers – Tallarn

As well as my other Daemonhunters Inquisitorial Stormtroopers which are based on the Cadian Kasrkin I have also decided to add a unit based on the Tallarn or I may just use them as inducted Imperial Guard.

Having given the models a white undercoat, I then gave the models a basecoat of Desert Yellow. This was followed by a wash consisting of Chestnut Ink, Scorched Brown paint (which helps remove the gloss of the ink) and some water to thin the wash down. The models were then drybrushed with a lighter brown to extenuate the detail. The headscarves were picked out with Bleached Bone and highlighted with white paint.

Painting the bases of the Stormtroopers

With my Inquisitorial Stormtroopers I was giving them a desert feel I knew I was going to use sand, but also wanted some rocks as well, so I used some slate from the Warhammer 40K Urban Basing Kit. Having added the rocks I then using PVA (white glue) flocked the based with some Games Workshop sand. I do like the sand which has some small larger pieces of gravel, which adds a lot of nice texture.

Once dry I then painted the bases Bestial Brown.

I did water down the paint so it would flow into the sand and the gaps under the rocks.

Starting the Inquisitorial Stormtrooper Repressor basecoat

Having finished building my Inquisitorial Stormtrooper Repressor and added lots of symbology I gave the model a black undercoat.

The next stage was to start the basecoat. I used the Citadel Foundation Paint, Tausept Ochre.

At this point the Dozer Blade is not attached and will be glued on once the model has been painted fully.
