Ok thanks!

The Blood Angel captain was a finecast release a number of years back. It’s a sculpt based on the 2nd Edition 40K box art.
In regard to your second question, sorry but I’m not familiar with using alt text.

Some sculpts from the late 80s mixed in there as well.

I would use a darker colour. That white is a big target to shoot at.

I did something similar with my Steel Legion.

I really love how quirky and sometimes insane the oldhammer, rogue trader era was.

Should be a little longer so we get to see all of the mini. It cuts off before we see its back view.

It starts with one but somehow they reproduce and then before you know it you have many. 😄

Looks like you’re just missing the railings that mounted to the top of the sides (which were easily broken) and a bolter for one of the hatches.
Yes, it’s yellowed but it’s not far off from its original cream/beige colour. I find that the plastic used is very brittle now due to age.

Oh I prefer the boxier 2nd edition ones but I collect rogue trader era minis due to the quirkiness of that era.

I initially avoided The Orville when it was first released as I didn’t want to see Seth McFarlane humour in space but later binged all of it in a couple of sittings and I kicked myself for not giving it a chance earlier.

Ahhhh 40K 2nd Edition. Love it.

I primarily buy unpainted ones or even poorly painted ones that I strip the paint off of. I do have some that have been painted quite well by someone else but I find I don’t have a good connection with them since they aren’t “mine”. I find painting makes them your own.

Precisely why I prefer rogue trader/2nd edition 40K. It allowed for more narrative play where the emphasis wasn’t on balance. Homebrew rules modifications and campaign play is my preference over the current competitive version of the game.
