Blackstone Fortress: the rogue trader
The hero of the cover art, Janus Draik, has now been completed
I considered being experimental and painting him as per the box art, entirely in shades of blue. In the end, I decided only having one character like this would look odd. If I had a second box I might consider painting them to match Paul Dainton’s excellent art.
However I will not be buying a second box.
Janus painted up nicely, and I enjoyed working on his fancy sword.
He’s come up very, very nicely. How many more of the PCs are left? The Ratlings, at least.. I think we’ll need a group shot of them shortly!

Yes, I’m definitely planning for a group shot! I have the Ratlings, Kroot, and Priest still to go of the characters.

You’ve done well man. I still haven’t built or painted mine. I’m still undecided if I’ll cut him up to convert him or slot him into one of my many projects. He’s a great miniature

Thanks, yes after painting this one I wished he was available singly as it’s a model I think a lot of 40k fans and gamers would like.

Yiu can get him on eBay as a single. Pretty sure I saw one recently for about $18 (aud)
