It's a dirty job, but some's got to do it.

"Ha, you think we wear these suits as a fashion statement?! Tell me boy, have you ever been down into the Sumps? The lights don't work right down there you know. Some days it's just you, your shoulder lamps, and kilometers of tunnel, flooded with Emperor knows what sort of toxic sludge. A hundred cycles or so ago I was down there and we had ourselves a little hivequake. Collapsed the floor beneath my feet and I went under. Sergey found me a few hours later. My legs were crushed under a girder, my lamp had broken and I'd long since screamed myself hoarse. The hi-vis flash of my suit in the dark caught his eye. And saved my life. So you can keep your fancy vest and your polished boots. This thing may be uglier than a grox-hide coat, but I wouldn't trade it for the world."

Oh man, this gang has been fun to build. My local Necromunda league started up suddenly, so I had to work with what I had on had, and decided to build an unorthodox Orlock gang. Conveniently, I think they work pretty well for Mare Solum as well, with hi-vis being important on stormy seas.
The paint job was my first experiment with copper, and I must say that the GW Nihilakh Oxide is pretty amazing. Drucchi Violet continues to be my "magic shade" though, as I used it on the orange and copper on the suits, the silver on the weapons, AND most of the skin-tones. Anyway, let's meet the gang!

Phew, that was a lot of photos, not all of them high-quality. But you take what you can get in the tough world of the underhive.
Cheers!
