They look good. You must have some sort of larger bits box. Aren't you going to field them with shotguns as well?

These do look most excellent! Awesome conversions with the shotguns too... Kind of reminds me of my shotgun vets. Really great use of bits as well, with all the pouched, grenades, and SM Scout ropes, etc.

Truly superb work my good sir. I applaud the knives sheathed on the men's backs.

Yeah, really excellent use of the Valkyrie door gunner bodies, but the different arrangement of bits and heads makes each one look unique. I definitely want to see the rest of the squad painted!

I used one of mine to covert up a carapace armored Fleet Officer to go with my carapace CCS. The idea was suggested to me by a GW employee (who is now the manager of my local GW) when we got to talking about Guard stuff and we both agreed that the stock Fleet Officer "Palpatine" was a bit too aristocratic looking to be running around with my Jungle Thugs.

Hey thanks a lot for such replies. I must admit I got a lot of pleasure by painting him. It's nice sometimes to take time.
Very soon, a 2nd brother in arm for the first vet.

As usual, thanks for the positive replies.
The unpainted guys are valkyrie gunner body to which I added a lot of cadian and space marines scouts bitz. Shotguns are also from scouts bitz. The painted veteran is made from a simple cadian body with a lot of cadian and scouts pouches and grenades. Heads are from valkyrie and sentinel crew or even cadian sprue.

Thanks for the amazing replies but the paint is full of defects and faces are not very well painted. As asked, some pics of the sergeant. He got a necromunda assault rifle and a power fist from an epic knight titan.
