I'm new to war gaming and this forum, just over about a year and ½, started in September 2006. I have 2 armies on the go, IG and SM, the IG army is based on my time in service with The Queen's Regiment and my SM army is Red Scorpions.

Please excuse the quality of the pictures. All comments would be greatly appreciated.

My SHO, Commissar and Regimental Standard Bearer.

A Platoon Command HQ

Terminator Command Squad ( not based)

SM Scouts

SM Dreadnought

Hi Jankett, thanks for your comment.

The peaked cap is actually from the Forge World Cadian upgrade set, so I can't take any credit for that. The Chaplain Terminator helmet was green stuffed, using a normal termie helmet as a base, but the top and front of the helmet chopped out. I have only been painting figures for war gaming since September 2006, before that I had done a couple of larger 90mm plus figures, but only a couple of months before that. For many years my passion was model cars, granted modeling, all be it vastly different techniques though.

Rarves, Thanks, yes the dog always gets lots of attention in games, he's the officer's trademark item ,that allows you to re-roll failed morale tests, pinning etc. It's a Lord of the Rings model, Framer Maggot. I have 2 one for each platoon command squad.

Thanks, I think that this scheme is fairly common, but then it does look very authentic. The plasma guns are Forgeworld Elysian Alcatran pattern plasma guns, much better scale for IG then the SM ones.
