Hmm so it's been quite a while since I've posted here... I've mainly been lurking, but I have a couple more pics to add to this thread to at least keep it up-to-date-ish.
First up is the mighty Imperial Guard Land Speeder. I painted this up late last year, and never quite got around to posting it here.
A valuable addition to the rapid strike component of the Death Blades, the land speeder usually fights alongside the sentinels, rough riders (who are my last unit to complete and are still not finished though...) and green platoon. Armed with a multi-melta for blowing up extremely big things, one of the crew decided that wasn't enough, and drew his laspistol just in case. Love it!
Note the ultra sexy mold line on the gun on the front:
I was excited that this model would see some action in 8th edition 40k games, but unfortunately it hasn't yet! The rules for 8th edition army building have changed again, so apparently I can use it in narrative games but not matched play games. But that's fine by me!
Another model that I've painted up for this army is a much, much more recent forgeworld resin model.
Note the old metal 80's rapier guardsmen on top manning the heavy stubber.
He has a little magnet on his foot, so I can change him out for something else, take him out for transport etc. Looks like I may need to straighten out that stubber barrel again though. No wonder he never hits anything!
I'm also working on a new single character for the army, that I just wanted to make up on a whim. I hope to have him painted up in the next couple of days. Well that's the plan anyway...
