I love shotguns! Great conversions! Can't wait to see more!

[KRIEGEIRK]

By the beard of Zeus these are incredible!

[silversurfer]

I finished the sarge.

[zeke]

Looks amazing. Love the weathering and the powerfist conversion.

I also think your avatar is awesome as well.

How did you do the "501"? A steady hand?

Sent from my GT-I9100 using ProBoards

Of course not, those are decals from the transfer sheet from the cadian squad box.

I used microsol liquids and weathered it.

I almost farted when I saw these , such NICE models ....

Heavily equipped, hulkering beasts that I can easily imagine jumping out of Chimera's and brutally suppressing riots

As what can probably be described as a minor brainfart on my account, i cannot identify the power fist hand. It looks tau but i can't bring it home.

Anybody know?

Very nice job by the way!!

[silversurfer]

Thanks for all of the positive replies.

The power fist comes from an errant knight titan kit from Epic.

They do catch your eyes almost as much as the models themselves..... Why can't she play at my local GW store *drools over watching her move mini's across the board*

But anyway, they look amazing Can't wait to see the whole squad

Uhm, Silver surfer is a man, according to his profile. Guys, you know the stereotype about gamers being geeks who never get laid? Yeah, spot on...

Anyway, cool models, the sergeant looks mean as hell. Only two things, my usual pet peeve about wooden stocks on lasguns/autoguns, no biggie. His knife/machete though. There's no way hell be able to draw it when it's carried like that. If the edge was turn away from him then at least he would be able to tilt the scabbard and pull it towards himself.
Again, no biggie. Still cool models.

[Peter Cooman]

Well Duh

just for jokes man

Which is a gun produced for a few years during the 50s and have long since been replaced by weapons with polymer stocks and not a space age laser weapon which is mostly made out of plastics, polymers and metal anyway. Like I said, just a pet peeve and not a complaint.

As a fan of Space Marine scouts and hoarding their bits to use on guardsmen, I approve! The shade of Khaki is perfect, too.

Dude your regiment rocks. As a fellow salamander enthousiaste can you please tell me how to achieve that gorgeous salamander green ?

Actually I found your guide. Case closed

A little family photo of the detachment for my next tournament :

Hey man troops look great. What did you use to paint the skin color? I am trying to get my skin more realistic and these guys look great.

Alors toi, t'es exemplaire de ce qu'est un bon general Imperial. J'ai visiter ton blog et il m'as chatouiller l'anus. Merci de partager ces images avec nous et j'espere avoir au moins minimum un lien avec tes nouvelles projets et des close ups de tes soldats.

[silversurfer]

Thanks for the positive replies.
Skin is done easily with tallarn flesh, devlan mud and some highlights with dwarf and elf flesh.
My next projects are a second vendetta and two hydras.
Glad you like my blog. I will try to find some close-up of my dear footsloggers.
