Necromunda Cawdor Gang, The Dust Brothers
Here is the second of my Necromunda gangs finished. The paint scheme was inspired by movies that make use of strong filters to create a cold, dark atmosphere, movies like Alien III, and Underworld. The gang was completed in two major waves. The first wave, circa 2003, was the box set and a few extras. The second wave (2007-2008) were extensive conversions to represent the hardened, well equipped fighters who emerged. The Cawdor range of models is notorious for being poorly equipped to make use of their close combat skills, so modeling an effective gang is a challenge. There are quite a few conversions here if you care to pick them out. One ganger had his lasgun replaced with a pistol and sword courtesy of some liberal dremeling. The champions have been converted from Bretonnian grail pilgrims and a Mordheim chaos magister. The pilgrims' masks are sculpted from greenstuff. The heavy stubber was converted and painted between the two waves. His entire right arm is greenstuff, and the autogun was added to the pack with gs straps. I'm especially pleased with the embossed Cawdor icons on the champs (crossed torches, hooded skull and noose). These were sculpted in greenstuff.
