shaw3029 Posted October 24, 2012 Author Share Posted October 24, 2012 Thanks again guys. Really glad you like the weathered look.

They've gone through several changes over the years but I think its been worth it. The vindicators have the look of the German WW2 Stug tanks and Im really pleased with the new crewman. Its great that the Sabre tank hunter now has its own rules thanks to Forge Worlds betrayal book. Thats 2000pts finished so I shall get a army shot up soon. Hope you guys like it.

shaw3029 Posted October 26, 2012 Author Share Posted October 26, 2012 Woke up this morning to a nice surprise on Bell Of Lost Souls where they featured my Sabre Tank Hunter, http://www.belloflostsouls.net/2012/10/war...y-10-25-12.html :) Haha, on their billy-o = on their own, all by their very lonesome. Who needs Blood Angels and White Scars when you've got Fists right? Ah! lol. Yeah who needs them when you've got the actual defenders ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaw3029 Posted October 31, 2012 Author Share Posted October 31, 2012 A little update and probably not the army shot you have all been expecting but I finished the Chaplain, http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/Chaplain1.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/Chaplain2.jpg These are some of the worst photos that I have taken as the lighting was so poor but they give you the idea. He is magnetised with a Combi Flamer and Plasma Pistol so he can be used as a standard chaplain or Cassius. He also has the first transfer that I have used on a infantry model. I've used them before on a couple of vehicles in this army as well as my Flames Of War Germans. I am really getting on with them and want to use them alot more in the future. The weathering really helps set it in and make it look part of the model. After a hectic week and finally exchanging today I am moving house tomorrow! Unfortunately that means that I wont have access to the internet for a few weeks at least. When I am back online however I promise that I will get a few shots of the finished 2000 point army. Thanks guys!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Best of luck with the moving and thanks for posting an update before you leave us for a short while :devil: He looks good, though I think that he lacks something... Maybe a more dynamic pose would be nice. The black armour looks great, nicely weathered. Ludovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaw3029 Posted February 23, 2013 Author Share Posted February 23, 2013 Cheers guys! Its been several months since my last post because Ive since moved house and been very busy renovating it. I recently went to a tournament organised by a mate of mine and won both best painted and the overall tournament. I needed to paint up a tactical squad for my list so after many months I broke the paint brushes out again and made a start on this squad, http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/WIPTacSquad3_zps4dd5a1ec.jpg Unfortunatly I didnt finish them in time but Ive put in some work this evening and they are near completion. Im waiting on some transfers from Forge World before I can call them finished. Your also notice some new addition in the background. I will be working on these next. Heres a quick army shot as I promised a little while ago, http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/2000ptArmy_zpsbeb1c034.jpg Cheers!

shaw3029 Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 Cheers guys, Brother syth that is a big compliment! I really enjoy looking at the progress your making with your army. Looking good. War angel. I made it to represent a sabre tank hunter which forge world now has rules for. Battle brother ludovic. I've been painting up some apothecaries so they might feature next.

shaw3029 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 I completed the tactical squad recently along with the comma marine. http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/commsmarine2_zpse08132a0.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/commsmarine1_zps69ae5284.jpg Unfortunately the photos have not come out that well. http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/tacticalsquad3_zpsb84d3891.jpg The Sgt will actually be part the sgt of my devastator squad when I do them. Which is why he is armed with a storm bolter. http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/chaplainwithbackbanner_zpse545b9fa.jpg I'd also felt that my chaplain was missing something. So I have added a back banner. Hope you like. Next up apothecaries... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terranraida Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Nice to see someone else had the idea of murdering the Iron Warriors upgrade kit for those crusader looking helmets. Those horns were a pain to shave off I bet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaw3029 Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 Cheers guys! Terranrada they were indeed a pain. Brother syth. Steal away. A quick update for you. I have out together the apothecaries and 19 marines which will complete my two 20 man tactical squads. http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/image_zps9127b975.jpg Cheers!

shaw3029 Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 Just a quick post with a WIP shot of my legion preator. http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/DSCN1530_zpsbf3403a3.jpg He is a mass of bits at the moment and is literally held together with blu tac. I'd be most impressed if anyone could name all the parts. I'm stuck on wether he should have a helmet or not. I am leaning towards a helmet with a nice big plume on it. Possibly MK4. The archeotech pistol is based off the rogue trader artwork. I just need to add some guitar string for the cables. I'm also stuck on what to put on his backpack. I am thinking of adding either a banner or a iron halo. Like the original legion champion that I started all the way back on page 1. Cheers!
