Rogue Trader Collection – VII
So again, not too much done this week. But I did manage to strip some of the RTB01’s using a fantastic product called Paint Blitzer.
The models still need a little work with a soft brush and a cloth to get them back to their original state, but that won’t take long.
I also had a delivery of small bricks and set to work constructing Marneus’ wall as seen in the image below.
However, my father who was a builder by trade and taught Bricklaying at Northampton College would be ashamed of my work…..
Still, I think with some green stuff this will soon tidy up.

Rogue Trader Collection – V
Following on from last week’s post, I’ve not been able to get too much done painting wise. However a couple of pieces have arrived to enable me to do a quick dry fit mock up.
As you can see I’ve had a bear rug delivered from a seller on Etsy (apologies I can’t recall the seller). And I’ve had a name plaque delivered from Versatile Terrain.
I’m more than happy with the name plaque which will get painted up and placed on the side of the plinth once that arrives from Green Stuff World. The bear however….. I’m not as keen on. It feels a little too large for the scene. Especially if I’m going to try and include a wall in the background. Also the print quality isn’t great.
I’m tempted at this stage to remove the rug from the equation.
While I’m here I wanted to give a massive shout out to fellow club member Steve Milford who sold me some metal rogue trader models you see below. But who also threw in some of the lovely plastic original space marines from the RTB1 set. Very generous!
So what to do with these? The marines will be stripped and then painted up as Crimson Fists (may need to source a couple of arms and a boltgun). The terminator I’m going to to try and track down what set it belongs to before committing it to a paint scheme, however it may also end up as a Crimson Fist.
The Squat will get painted up and placed on a 25mm scenic base of some sort to wait for the rest of his brothers from that set who’ll then also be displayed on a plinth at some point.
I’m hoping that I’ll have the Imperial Commander sorted by next week (as long as the remaining parts arrive) at which point I can start thinking about which of the models to do next (yeah, it’ll be the land speeder).

Rogue Trader Collection IV
This is just a quick update to show the progress on Calgar.
So Calgar is done, I don’t think there’s anything left on him for me to do. Though I’m sure an eagle eyed reader or even myself will spot something further down the line…..
His marine Guard is nearly finished, he just needs his backpack sorting and some freehand symbols on his pauldron.
The armour stand is also nearly finished. I just need to do some final highlights on the gold. The bolter stand is also nearing completion with the wood completed. I need to highlight the bolter and do some of the metal work.
The base is also completed. I’m just waiting on the miniature fur rug to be delivered and the bricks to replicate the background wall. Once that’s in place I can start glueing the piece together and work on the flag stands against the wall.
The whole thing will then be mounted on a plinth like the one below which will have a metal plate stating the name of the model, it’s code and the year it was produced.
Then I’ll be finished (I think) and work can commence on the Imperial Army Land Speeder.
Let me know what you think, anything you think I can do to improve the model?
