Vanguard Veterans?


Primarch Corax

I would take pictures of mine, but they sort of don't exist...

Only in my head (for now).

 

I plan to make them from normal Assault Marines with fancy helmets, shoulder pads, decorations and such.

I like the GW Vanguard box, but there's not enough options, and I'm not too fond of metal miniatures for other purposes than HQ units.

Why do you have to be so awesome! :P great as always man! how d'you go about the hammer if you dont mind my asking? Love the guy on the wall!

 

Thanks dude :P the metal on the hammer is just Boltgun Metal with a wash of Badab Black, and the handle is Calthan Brown followed by Badab Black. :)

 

I LOVE BADAB BLACK!!!

Imperial Fist Vanguard.

 

I hate the red-stripe crap from the RT era. The Fists are a Codex Chapter and white their heads shall be!

 

I actually have them all done, but for some reason, this is the only pic I took...

If you DO go with white helmets, a detail brush and badab black is THE BEST thing ever for shading on the inner edges.

 

They actually don't look half bad with white heads.

 

Somehow, it took me three looks to notice in this pic they have no jump-packs. I assume they aren't that way still, right?

Unless i'm completely mistaken, I'd say the hammer is from the games day miniature?

Nice vet's all round!

Havn't got any to show sorry =(

T.F.F

It's actually the whole GGD '08 mini, except for the head (Mk6, obviously), and the Jump Pack. Unless my eyes deceive me (which is likely at the moment due to me being tired and sort of intoxicated, but not last time I looked at the picture, I was fully awake then).

Here are mine, inspired by Shrike's Wing from the old codex.

Love these miniatures. Are they PA lightening claws? Can you tell me where from? Thanks.

They look like Terminator claws to me...see the thick power cabling and wide claws? PA claws are smaller and have thinner claw blades.

 

They are indeed Terminator Assault squad claws. I actually bought them several years ago when I still worked for GW. You can still get the sprues at The Warstore though.
