Looking really solid as always, the scheme is exceptionally gritty as one would expect and youve definitely nailed the green armor with all that practice with those nids haha. Ive always wanted to get my hands on that commander model.

the blue works really well as a spot colour that is neither too bright, nor too subtle!
superb work sir!

Cheers lads!
Walk, yeah, the German Field Grey is my favourite colour (along with Rakarth Flesh!) so I try to use either of them as much as possible!
The Commander is a glorious sculpt, well chuffed with it.
Treads, glad you approve of the blue! I thought it would tie in with my boy’s Ultramarines. We can ally vs the xenos menace of the Tyranids!!
I think the Ultramarines will be 3rd Company (they’re the xenos hunters)

Those are some good looking Kriegsmen.

Coming along great! Are these recasts or the real deal and if they are the latter, have you thought about where to get them now that forgeworld seems to be discontinuing? Also, you thinking about doing the plasma glow or leave it as is? A dark purple glow would probably contrasts well enough without overpowering/ruining the grittiness you've achieved.

Thanks Walk.
They are indeed the real thing. I’m going to cross that bridge when I get there. For now I’ll just buy from FW until they stop supporting them. I’m fully invested in the army.
I’m living in hope that GW will produce plastic Krieg models to fill the void! Failing that there’s always eBay or recasters.
As for the plasma glow, I’m happy representing it with coils not as exciting but I think it works with the muted palette I’ve chosen for Blue Company.
I’ve built my Medusa but that’ll have to wait while I build my daughter’s Eldar stuff first!

Looking good, that'll make for an awesome artillery battery.

Thanks nutty!
Cheers treadiculous! They are a brilliant kit.
Thanks Walk, that’s what I was going for!
Next up I’ll be working on my brother’s Marines.
I’ve bought an Eldar army for my eldest daughter and finally the Ultramarines for my son, so I’ve got a load of gluing to do over Christmas!

Really appreciate that Walk!
Next up will be an Earthshaker Carriage (as long as I don’t give into temptation and build my Macharius!)

I do love those earthshaker carriages!
I wonder if using the oop metal catachan mortar loaders would look right with one of those...

Funnily enough I do have 3! Such a good kit (if not a little fiddly!) Hopefully I’ll be starting work on another one soon. I do love those earthshaker carriages! I wonder if using the oop metal catachan mortar loaders would look right with one of those... I’m sure they’d be fine. The shells for it are deceptively small.

You let me know when you're ready to trade one of your amazingly painted Kriegers for a Chelsea model for your boy. Shipping both ways by me
