Guild Riflemen


Malifaux Guild Riflemen are extremely accurate and can cut down charging models if they activate and focus early. They were also an early plastic model that Wyrd produced so now that i'm focusing on Guild models I wanted to paint one of the oldest ones I have.
As a note, the sword on the model that carries it is very fragile. It was going down the path to breakage so I used some GW liquid greenstuff to firm it up. Beyond that the rest of the models look great and go together well. Just take your time though and follow directions (the Wyrd website has lots of tutorials).
 So I primed black. Then painted the hat and cloak/jacket P3 Coal Black then drybrushed P3 Trollblood Base. 
 Then painted the leather bits P3 Bootstrap Leather and drybrushed with P3 Rucksack Tan. Some parts were then lightly drybrushed with P3 Hammerfall Khaki.
The gun stock was painted with P3 Thamar Black. The gunbarrel and metal parts were painted with P3 Pig Iron and lightly drybrushed with P3 Quicksilver.
 Some parts of kit were painted with P3 Traitor Green and drybrushed with P3 Iosian Green. Others were painted with P3 Bloodstone.
 The goggles and gun scope were painted with P3 Arcane Blue and lightly flicked with P3 Frostbite. The whole model was then washed with GW Devlan Mud.
 The base was molded in with air drying putty and pressed into with the model's feet. After the base dried the models were glued in and some Army Painter Meadow Flowers were put on. The outside was painted with GW Mecritite Red.

I think they will complement many of my guild models that are vulnerable to charges and opposing models vulnerable to accurate shooting.
