I have painted up a batch of genestealer models. I would love to hear what you all think.

You can see more pictures on my blog. link

Very nice in deed. I'd love me a Genestealer Cult army.

I'm an old Space Hulk player which got me into gaming. I've always loved the Genestealers. I have about three Space Hulk games worth including the add on Deathwing and Genestealer which came with Genestealer Hybrid. Gotta love a Stealer with a missile launcher. Right now I'm working on a Bug Hunt using them and Khurasan mini bugs that look like dog size fleas (the name escapes right now). I'll be running it under Ganesha Games rules SWATTERS. Typical scenerio; Gov't Research Labs screws up and all hell breaks loose. So we call in the Elite Colonial Marines (Warzone Imperial Marines). And just to make thing difficult some old GW(80's) scouts as rogue mercs trying to make a buck (cannon fodder really). Should be fun for all.

I believe they prefer the Jordash look.

Genestealer Cult army

Sorry they went the way of the Squats.

@PapaSync: Sounds like fun. I've not used any Ganesha Games rules before, but I keep seeing references to them. Maybe I will have to give them a try sometime.

These guys are looking for Miss Me jeans, but haven't found any just yet. What can I say, they have expensive tastes.

@Mithmee: Did you know, Squats never existed. Genestealer Cult armies just don't exist anymore.

They're my favourite 'Nids. Nice work.

I never much cared for the later Tyranids, but I loved the Zoats and Genestealers. (And I'm still on a quest to get some of the original metal tiny Tyranids.) And I must admit I like my Squats too. I think the way they went was to better gaming systems than any GW has released thus far. Simple as that. They're still out there aplenty. Working on my cult army right now. (Well, not this second, but generally in the present.)

They look nice, Sean. Keep up the good work.

"Like 'em!
Apparently they haven't stolen any jeans yet as they are bare-legged. Do you know if they prefer Levis, Lee, or any brand in particular?"

Look more like models for Calvin Klein or Abercrombie & Fitch.

Genestealers got me into the hobby back in 2nd Edition. Great job on your Genestealers, just a shame they aren't painted the OG purple color scheme.
