Custom built Valhallan army

[lordjacobus]

Hello all! 

New poster here, been looking for the best way to keep me motivated and I figured a good modelling site thread will do it.

As the tittle says i'm starting a rather ambitious project of making a completely customized Imperial Guard force of Valhallans using 28mm WW2 Greatcoat Soviets as the base and trying to make them look suitably Guardsmeny. I dont have many pictures of my work so far, just some shots of the completed command squad. so here it is.

Interesting project

How do the miniatures measure up against regular guardsmen?

Nutty, They are about 3-5 mm shorter, as they are heroic scale, so next to other guard they look a bit off. Next to space marines they look more realistic heh.

It looks like a very interesting concept. I´m looking forward to see the whole regiment.

Have you considered adding texture to your bases to lift them up a few mm to makie them blend with other IG?
