I already have three of these but you can never have enough snipers can you!
These three came in a blister pack for about tuppence halfpenny back in the day, and were great value in a 40k Catachan army!
“Catachan (pronounced Cat-a-CHAN) is the most infamous Imperial Death World in the galaxy. It is located in the Ultima Segmentum and is covered in dense jungle.
The planet’s entire ecosystem seems consciously hostile to all foreign life. Each and every element of the native flora and fauna of the planet represents a real danger to any Human.
Catachan’s only valuable resource is its people, who by virtue of being born on the harshest world in the Imperium are invariably tough and cunning. It is home to the renowned Catachan Jungle Fighters regiments of the Astra Militarum.” Warhammer 40k Fandom
Great to also have these finally completed.
Great work on these classics Dave, I had the same models, not that you’d be able to recognise them once I’d finished ! LOL
Great work, I still have about half a bo of the plastic models. I really wanted the snipers but really wasn’t into 40k so shelved my plan.
I have given away all of my plastics and now only have the metal ones both finished and unfinished. getting them done is a lab lour of love.
I think I might have those guys somewhere in a plastic box
Yep! The only difference with mine was that it was a card board box!
I did look and found two of them still in white metal in a cardboard box full of old school Marines and Grey Knights! Not sure where the third sniper got to – they where all part of a eBay purchase way back in the early the ‘oughts
Great work, Dave. I have those as well but can’t actually recall if I managed to get them painted or not!
Yes it is amazing when we find a gem painted or unpainted in our vast hordes sealed in long unopened tombs!
Dangerous crew. Love your scenery as well, as always.
Thanks Matt. The scenery is just various aquarium plants stuck on a base, not even painted, however I do like the way they have come out.
It is fun the things that can be repurposed into scenery. I’ve seen people do great things with aquarium scenery… need to take a stab at it myself.
Snipers in the jungle, what’s not to love?!
Excellent paint jobs, GP.
You have to admire the cojones of a sniper who goes to war in a red bandana 😎. My own 15mm Catch-a-tans go to war in ghillie suits. Boring!
Regards, Chris.
Didn’t you notice the red plants! It’s camo!
