Rogue Trader Crimson Fist Terminators

My life has literally been in Chaos lately.  We bought a house, which was a struggle the whole way, then moved this weekend and had to get my son and step-daughter into new schools, on top of the hectic whirlwind that is my usual daily life.  (If you'd like to hear most of the tragic details check out my writer's blog).  So while I'd like to paint my "Royal Flush" Imperial Fist honor guard champion, or finish the last two models of my crimson fist devastator squad, or even paint my greater daemon with concubine that I came up with, I ain't doing any of that.  My guys are all in boxes and my paints in a separate box.  But I do have these photos I took not too long ago of classic termies I bought and painted.  I have since purchased too many more terminator models that I figured on painting up as Death Wing vets, whenever that happens.  Meanwhile, I do like these models and how they turned out.



Notice the old-school librarian.  I believe these models date back to the first Space Hulk game era.  Bulky lead boys but still look cool.  I planned to put them on the updated bigger bases... someday.


Back in the day these are what passed for force weapons and psychic hoods.

Hopefully before too long I'll have my house set-up with a nice, well-lit place to paint.  Wish me luck.

  1. Congratulations on the new house! I'm in a similar boat myself; I'll soon be moving as well, so not much hobbying for me at the moment.

  2. Holy crap, I'm noticing the background of these... This was my apartment in Carlsbad, CA, which was like 2 or 3 houses back. Depressing...
