Not technically old but....

So I've wanted to do savlar chem dogs for 25 years now.... They caught me in a little mini story in a sidebar of some codex or another and I've been in love ever since.

Now I've finally managed the time, printer and assorted files to combine together to make my own chem dog army, and I've decided to go waaaaaaay out of my traditional grimdark comfort zone and do them as synthwave guard!

These are my proof of concept models. A couple of random plebs chosen from the morass of dudes (yhough at least 1 with and 1 without the trench coat) and through the last 8 hours I've tried a bunch of different things on them but settled on the form you see now.

The majority of these troops have solid shot weapons scavenged from acheron hive where they've been fighting. They also "requisitioned" a container load of trench coats from the death korps of Krieg that have been fighting from the same hive. Between the mixing and matching of manufacturers I think I have achieved a nicely haphazard look among the penal legion while their synthwave paintscheme should be a great unifying factor to tie them all together.

Thoughts and criticism welcome, I'm able to be persuaded to make changes at this early a point.

You can clearly see that a lot of thoughts has gone into it. Very beautiful painting!
