After a bit of a break from mini painting I have been working more on my famous sci-fi franchise inspired scenario idea.
I thought that Inquisitor Thrad needed some white armoured minions to complete his ensemble. I did consider using some Space Marines but I don't actually have many of those and had already used them in my other Inquisitor's (Tycho) retinue.
Instead I settled on some of the early Imperial Guard troopers with more armour than the normal bunch.

I'm pretty happy with how the two of them have turned out, even if they are quite difficult to photograph! They do actually remind me more of the Spaceballs from Mel Brooks' parody (hence the title...) than actual Stormtroopers (probably something to do with the rounded helmets) but I don't think that's a major problem.
Finally a shot of them with their boss.
Till next time...
