Necromunda - PT Barnacle's Carnival of Chaos

Continuing the trend of painting up antagonists to menace my players with in the Down in Out in Dust Falls campaign, time to raise the curtain on PT Barnacle's Carnival of Chaos! These are super old models that have been knocking around in the Closet of Doom for literally decades. Originally a gang from Mordheim, with the addition of a few ratty ranged weapons, they're ready to hit the underways and bring joy (and jaundice) to the inhabitants of Dust Falls...


One of several heralds of the ever-increasing power of Karloth Valois, the carnival will travel around the underhive, shedding plague zombies and disease in their wake until they are confronted and destroyed by the players.


PT Barnacle, Yorrick the Jester, and Hamlitt the Plaguebearer (with Yorrick's original head).


Buboe, Canker, Hangnail and Pustule, the four Helot Cultists of the gang.


Lump and Bump, the two Disciples, and Burble, Bubble, and Spit, the trio of Nurglings round out the group. I'm using the Chaos Cult rules for the group, with a few liberties taken here and there for narrative purposes.

Next up, a whole passel of plague zombies!

    Bet they put on a "hell" of a show! They look great, with the bright colours contrasted against the rot and decay. I think Barnacle is my fave, but I also like Pustule, because between the long face and the hat, he looks a bit like Jafar from Aladdin.

      Cheers! Aye, he's one of my favorites of the group as well. "Hey, why the long face?" :D

      Haha! I had used them in Mordheim waaay back in the day, and it was a painful process stripping, disassembing and kitbashing them back together. Happy with how they turned out though!

      Haha! The next campaign cycle will be taking place in the Sump and will have some further old-school models making an appearance. Stay tuned!

    Imagining a new reality TV show in the hives; 'normal' people join one of the gangs. Each week the person with the least votes joins the scavvie gang, outcast forever and unable to return to their normal life.

    That's a great looking group of baddies. I can't wait to see their zombie reinforcements.
