Cartel Special Agents


We have the local tradition here to play one or two 1st edition Warzone games every year, trying to improve old rules to make them more dynamic, give honour to the old times or whatever. Because I still have pretty solid supply of Warzone junk I also try to pull out some of those from the pile of shame. Last month it was squad of Cybertronic Chasseurs and Capitol's Great Grey, now the time has come for special force... 😎

I've always liked Jake Kramer - the fat one. It's pretty funny yet badass model - kinda like Gimili from Lord of the Rings. Therefore decided he would be leader of Cartel Agents death squad. It was painted first as test piece. I had general idea of color scheme in mind but was hoping for getting decent ted tone on flamethrower - failed it.



But got much better result on another Agent - also flamethrower operator. I like this one much better then Kramer (sorry Jake... 😟 ). I haven't checked but looking at face I am quite sure it's Mark Copplestone's sculpt - it's very characterful for his works. This one is wearing lots of jeans - to make it less boring flaming skull from old skeleton box was added. Biker gang style. Cannot wait to see the rest of agents - if I can keep painting standard of the jeans guy, Kramer is getting a bath.




And here are the brave agents - about to fry some necro-bacon!

  1. Awesome work on the Cartel dudes!

    I'm really looking forward to seeing more of the Res Nova Warzone Eternal stuff painted as the Razide looked pretty good as did the Blood Beret so fingers crossed!

  5. It's subtle, but I love the wear and tear on the clothes! And the pink hair... Great choice 😄

    2. I heard that outfit called a "Canadian tuxedo". This is of course, untrue, unlined denim will not get you through February in Ontario.
