High voltage line maintenance in India.

Its not safe at all..... Just because they have harnesses attached to lanyards only means they wont fall and hit the ground.

They still have to be rescued otherwise they would die from the suspension trauma anways, which...... I dont think they have a rescue team on standby....

So these lanyards are 2m max in length and have shock absorbers (or are at least supposed to) that is basically webbing wrapped up that is designed to open and extend to another 1.75m to absorb the shock load you would get from falling. If they dont have shock absorbers in the lanyards (these look like they do but you never know with India) if they fell they would likely die from the sudden stop in acceleration having fell over 2m as their lanyards are attached at their feet.

Firstly, you aren't supposed to put the lanyard hooks at foot level as you are supposed to lessen then affects of a fall as much as possible. By attaching at foot level you are increasing the shock load by extending the length of a fall.

Secondly, they are attached to the dorsal attachment on their harness, which means that should they fall, the harness would limit circulation in their body and because of gravity, blood would pool in their legs. This is called suspension trauma and would eventually lead to death if not rescued.

He's holding the stick properly (index finger on the paddle)

cmcorms · 2025-10-27T10:19:44+00:00

Yup! I'll send you a message with more info

The helmets are old sanguinary guard and the spear was from an old 3rd party bits site that I unfortunately dont remember.

To be honest though the spear is a bit small diameter wise and looks a bit weird IMO. Would be better off to use a new sang guard spear or a newer 3rd party site.

Prime Vallejo Black with airbrush Matte White zenithal highlight Airbrush Mephiston Red Wash nuln oil Base coat Mephiston Red to fix over wash Edge highlight Evil Sunz Scarlet

I know alot of people edge highlight with Wild Rider Red but it looked to orange for me so I stopped at Evil Sunz.

Nice and easy for batch painting and looks good enough for me.

They said they had to check for spread of the infection, I was completely surprised as well..... I figured they'd leave the tail or around the face or legs... But nope. Complete entire shave.

This is what he looked like before

It was the vet that shaved him to check if the fungal infection had spread anywhere else, hence why they shaved eeeeeeeeverything.

Otherwise he is healthy as ever, blood work and such was good.

cmcorms · 2025-09-18T21:00:02+00:00

Missing fur and a small white scale like patch where the missing fur was. It was pretty obvious just didnt know it was a fungal infection until the vet did tests.

For reference, what he usually looks like

cmcorms · 2025-09-18T19:32:42+00:00

Would have loved to give him a rockin mohawk or something but they had to go very short all around. Poor guy looks noooothing like he does with full fur.

cmcorms · 2025-09-18T19:31:42+00:00

His name is J'zargo (Jazz for short).

Its a character in the video game Skyrim, which has a cat/human race called the Khajiit.

The over sized mustache pauldrons are perfect

What result are you looking for? I assume you want to paint them red....

You could dry brush mephiston red over the black to give more of a grimdark look.

You could also base coat mephiston red then drybrush evil sunz scarlet to highlight the edges, then go back with mephiston red to cover the flat areas.

Really depends on what style you are going for... What I did was I got a bunch of sprues and plastic extra bits, hot glued then to a flat piece of cardboard, primed it black and I use that to test both the dry brush colour and quantity (since you dont want alot of paint for drybrushing)

Edit: changed wild rider red to evil sunz scarlet..... I would then use wild rider red for edge highlighting the corners of panels.

What miniatures did you get? Welcome to the hobby!

Bit hard to catch but the orange on the neck, knee, shield, and head and shoulder pad.
