Skull_Lord Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 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.

THE FATED FITH Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Unless i'm completely mistaken, I'd say the hammer is from the games day miniature? Nice vet's all round!

Argon Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 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... http://gallery.me.com/harropj/100103/_MG_5068/web.jpg?ver=12414089290001 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?

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).

Inquisitor Engel Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 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? Correct. I paint them separately, makes applying a round decal much easier!

ShinyRhino Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 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.

Justice for All Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Cool vanguard veteran .Whats up with the double blade axe ? Thanks. The idea with the axe is it's a relic blade. As you can't get a benfit for a second weapon I thought it should be big and a little unwieldly.

I actually bought them several years ago when I still worked for GW. You can still get the sprues at The Warstore though.

turelhim vampire Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Here are my WIP minis - not done all that much to them at the moment. The unit is very expensive but as a Salamanders player I just couldn't NOT make them. http://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa117/turelhimvampire/Picture011-1.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160873-vanguard-veterans/page/2/#findComment-2064477 Share on other sites More sharing options...
