Description
If I knew I was going to repaint the whole squad I'd probably plan something a little different, but here I am with single models that should belong to a unit.
Over the years I completely forgot how bad were the Guardians plastic arms. The miniatures were cool and had a very nice variety of designs and poses, but those arms...
It's worth noting that the meltagun design was reused for the latest fusion gun, with some minor tweaks.
Citadel Colours used:
Skin: Rakarth Flesh, Coelia Greenshade, Deepkin Flesh, Pallid Wych Flesh.
Hair: Steel Legion Drab, Deepkin Flesh, Pallid Wych Flesh.
Armour: Naggaroth Night, Druchii Violet, Xereus Purple, Genestealer Purple, Phoenician Purple, Dechala Lilac.
Loincloth: Warpfiend Grey, White Scar.
Meltagun: Rakarth Flesh, Karak Stone, Graveyard Earth, Screaming Skull.
Holster and ammo pouch: Rhinox Hide, Agrax Earthshade, Gorthor Brown, Baneblade Brown.
Spirit stone: Abaddon Black, Caliban Green, Warpstone Glow, Moot Green, Screaming Skull, White Scar.
Base: Agrellan Earth, Gryphonne Sepia (Wash), Screaming Skull, Dryad Bark.

Some really old design. What edition is it?
Is it metal perhaps?

Seriously old school! Though, not sure about the maille being purple.

It looks like chainmail, but actually it's mesh armour, made of thermoplas, so it can be painted in any colour, metallic being the most obvious and the least interesting.
