DWARVES IN SPAAAAACEEE

 One of the other collections I seem to have built up over the years is a small squat army - having added a couple more bikes and a trike from eBay, and a couple of Horus Heresy tanks (a Rhino and a resin Land Raider), I now have about 2000pts of the little blighters.

Having 2000pts of squats does not mean I have painted 2000pts of squats - most of these doughty fellows are sprayed and ready for the brush when I get round to it. I did manage to paint up one of the squads last year, as well as a couple of characters and a Chaos Squat in Exo Armour however, so the basic scheme is sorted out.

Hopefully I’ll get onto these squats at some point in the next few months - though as you will see there are quite a few collections tidied and ready for the brush!

A slight note on the Ancestor Lord here - he’s actually an old Warhammer Fantasy dwarf that I had previously been using as a runesmith. A quick bit of green stuff to make a few cables and a bionic eye, as well as a little comms thingy near his ear has sorted him out for the far future instead.

One of the squads of generic squats from the army - this one with a lascannon and heavy plasma. The eagle eyed amongst you may note that this is technically a conversion beamer rather than a heavy plasma gun, but since conversion beamers are support weapons in 2nd ed, the similar shape will let the cheeky little guy get away with it. A couple of the old plastic squats make up the ranks here along with a metal chap with a lasgun.
