From Barks: Ash Waste Nomads (50 points)

It took me longer than expected to paint these chaps from Necromunda. There's a lot of details and shades of sandy brown. I was looking for inspiration from Fremen, Tusken Raiders, mujahideen, Arab Revolt, etc. They've got these banners let them do that ambush-from-the-sand trick. They've got apparatus to protect from the elements and conserve water.


Rocket launcher and spotter

Long rifles

Leader

Raiders

10x 28mm figures (50 points)

I think I've got a final post in me for odds and ends.

Minion Miles: Love the non-IP-infringing star wars feel to these figures (one doesn't want to poke the Disney Bear!).  Very nicely done.
