Warhammer 40K - Imperial Guard and Kroot kickin' it!

My friend Greg wanted to have a special diorama made for his IG army that he could show off at tournaments, so he hired me to make a weird little scene.

 

In 40K the Kroot, a birdlike humanoid race, are mercenaries and so they are currently being used with the Imperial Guard. This is a scene where there is some downtime in the action and the two groups are mixing it up.

 

On the left you have two commanders consulting a scanner to plan out the next mission.

 

In the middle you have an IG and Kroot just sitting on a log, eating some freshly hunted animal over a fire. The Kroot are known to be nasty, smelly carnivores that just hang hunks of meat off of them as snacks. It's like having a vulture carry some of its food about with it. So the Kroot is spattered in blood as it leans back for a hearty laugh.

 

And on the right you see an IG and Kroot have exchanged each other's weapons and are comparing them.

 

It should also be mentioned that there is a little blinking red led set down in the campfire which can be turned on.
