Hades Dark Troopers Squad- Sci-Fi Wargaming Miniatures, 32mm Scale

The Hades Dark Troopers Squad brings five imposing warriors of corrupted power armour to your tabletop, each sculpted at 32mm scale with relentless attention to grimdark detail. Horned helms, skull iconography, spiked boltguns, and layered plate armour tell the story of warriors long fallen to darker masters. These physical resin miniatures arrive with supports already removed and surfaces cleaned, ready for assembly and painting straight from the box.

Each trooper in the squad carries a distinctive silhouette. Cable-wrapped helms, wing-like vane exhausts, and tattered robes give the unit a cohesive but varied appearance across all five poses. Skull emblems are cast across knee guards, shoulder plates, and weapon housings, reinforcing the relentless iconography of a warband that has left mercy behind. The detail across every surface rewards careful brushwork and rewards both speed painters and display-level hobbyists.

The Hades Dark Troopers Squad is designed for 32mm scale sci-fi wargaming and fits comfortably alongside other infantry squads in that range. The resin material holds fine detail exceptionally well, from the ribbed cabling on the backpacks to the textured surface of the boltgun housings. Each model is cast from high-quality grey resin, offering a neutral base for any colour scheme you choose.

This squad is ideal for collectors building forces themed around fallen legions, traitor warbands, or any grimdark sci-fi army in need of elite infantry. The Hades Dark Troopers Squad is supplied unpainted and may require minor assembly depending on pose.

The grimdark aesthetic of these models rewards a dark, battle-worn palette. Whether you lean into midnight blacks, corrupted bronze, or deep reds, the following steps will help you achieve a striking result.

1. Prime

• Apply a black or dark grey primer for maximum shadow retention across the deep recesses
• Ensure full coverage on the underside of pauldrons and the ribbed cabling

2. Armour Base

• Basecoat in a deep charcoal black or midnight blue for a corrupted legion feel
• Alternatively, use dark red or desaturated purple for a more unique warband identity

3. Trim and Details

• Paint trim and horn details in tarnished bronze or aged gold using a flat basecoat
• Apply a brown wash over all metallic trim to age and dull the finish

4. Weapons

• Basecoat the boltguns in dark iron or gunmetal
• Drybrush lightly with bright silver to catch raised edges and imply heavy use

5. Weathering

• Apply a dark brown or black oil wash across all armour panels and let it settle in recesses
• Stipple chipped paint effects using a torn blister foam and a mid-tone grey or base colour

6. Bases

• Use dark ash grey texture paste or cracked earth effects to evoke a hellish battlefield
• Finish with a matte varnish to seal the model and reduce shine across all surfaces
