nurglespuss Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Hi All :> Well got this finished this morning (excepting bases) first time I've managed to fit in half a squad in one photo! Thanks to Sony Ericsson Phone thingy. All comments welcome! Just to clarify, I'm not mad! they are part of a 2 chapter crusading force (my own Children of Icarus & the existing Aurora Chapter) the unifying themes will be the easy one (the bases) and the horizontally bisected red/white sword on the right shoulder pad (in the case of the Aurora chapter symbol is moved to right knee to keep tactical markings on the left shoulder. http://photos-322.ll.facebook.com/photos-ll-sf2p/v295/128/96/633810322/n633810322_3583827_4490.jpg http://photos-322.ll.facebook.com/photos-ll-sf2p/v295/128/96/633810322/n633810322_3583859_4914.jpg Cheers!

Zotias Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I like all of the indidvidual poses and the Nid head conversions on the sergeant. The Children of Icarus look like vampires! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/142480-tactical-squad-one/#findComment-1648491 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurglespuss Posted July 31, 2008 Author Share Posted July 31, 2008 Thanks mate :> I've been looking for something to use that nid head trophy on for ages! :) Also, spot on, the Children of Icarus are indeed blood angel descendents!

taLLis Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 Nice choice of yellow there, i like the fact it's not too bright and the mud/weathering looks cool Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/142480-tactical-squad-one/#findComment-1648530 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nurglespuss Posted July 31, 2008 Author Share Posted July 31, 2008 Cheers, yeah I'm a fists player t heart, so it was a challenge painting yellow differently (but not going down the bad moon route) Thanks :> Just debating now whether to do the scouts as Aurora or CoI.... both would look cool, hmmmm Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/142480-tactical-squad-one/#findComment-1648581 Share on other sites More sharing options...
taLLis Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I would go for both, gives your army a bit of variety plus makes them more interesting to build and paint Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/142480-tactical-squad-one/#findComment-1648587 Share on other sites More sharing options...

lord_bunny Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I've told you this before, but damn! Your own chapter realy impresses me, the yellow is just, brillaint. It gives a very evil feel, but not 'oh noes we ares Chaoses!' still a loayl chapter, just a tad derranged. The auora marines are brilliant too, I like all the poses asides from gun holding hand in the air, looks a bit weird, you could try the missile launcher hand...

nurglespuss Posted July 31, 2008 Author Share Posted July 31, 2008 Cheers man :> evil indeed! As for the hand, well, I think that particular marine slipped through the net and may be 'batting for the other side' and I don't mean Chaos... ;) COOEE! Sergeant!
