I'm trying to concentrate on, if not one thing at a time, then less things at a time. I'm really glad to have these underhive characters painted- they're fantastically overdetailed sculpts and were not amenable to batch painting. I did use a few Speedpaints and worked on getting them finished rather than perfect. I'm trying for a somewhat limited, earthy palette.

| Underhive Hangers-on |
Rogue doc and servo skull
The classic plague mask with a bunch of scalpel fingers, poking implements, and doctor's bag. He's got a handy medi-skull as well.
 |
| The doctor will see you now. |
Ammo jack
She's wielding a power hammer in one (augmetic) hand and a cigar in the other. Her backpack is festooned with grenades, magazines, ammo, and a boltgun.
 |
| Perfect for home defence. |
Slopper
This cook carries a brazier and has roast mutant rat and a tentacle on his advertising pole. He's got a cleaver, knife sharpener, and pepper pot on his belt as well as an oven mitt. The ladle is lashed to a crowbar.

| "More?!" |
Dome Runner
I think this pose and vaguely rodent-like mask is as close as we'll ever get to the Ratskins coming back. The dome runner is an underhive guide, and I liked the idea of him having a blueprint spread out.

| "I know a shortcut..." |
Hive Watcher
This is a great figure, more machine than man. I gave him very grey, sallow skin.
