Rogue Trader


I think this is a Spyglass Pirate Captain model but I thought he made an excellent Rogue Trader dandy or even an Imperieal Naval Officer. Now all I have to do is figure out how to make his bodyguard

  3. Hi John
    Nice figure and very nice paint job.
    re the bodyguards as he is rather 18th/19th century in style what about some Perry minatures Napoleonics or wargames foundry Napoleonics/Indian Mutiny another option is some GW Vostroyans (they're Polish rennaissance in style) plus they have Las guns and Special weapons that will fit in with their bodyguard status might look good in dark blue coats with white or silver piping/frogging on the coat and white trousers
    plus for the purists who think the fur hats are a bit wierd for sailors think "hunt for red oktober" Bring him over the next time you come and we can hold some of them up against him for comparison (try before you buy).
