shaw3029 Posted June 8, 2010 Author Share Posted June 8, 2010 I've been working on my Sternguard squad and have added an extra 5 Marines, http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/Sternguard10Man.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/Sternguard10Man6.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/Sternguard10Man5.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/Sternguard10Man3.jpg Just waiting on some studs to finish some of them off.

AlexCrute Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Marvellous Sternguard. Just flat-out marvellous. I love the guy that matches the artwork on the sternguard page of the codex. I made him too, but for some reason my guy's in a ven-dread sarcophagus (I must have deviated from the brief ever-so-slightly).

shaw3029 Posted July 7, 2010 Author Share Posted July 7, 2010 Cheers Alex, In the campaign the Sternguard Sgt has been encased in a Dreadnought so I'm busy making him at the moment, http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/DreadnoughtLEgOption2Bolter.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/DreadnoughtLEgOption2CloseKombat.jpg Hopefully you all think the resembles the Sternguard Sgt. Here are the five additional Sternguard with some paint on them, http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/2nd5Sternguard.jpg And here they are all together. http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/10manSternguard.jpg Next up will be the Sternguards Rhino and then the five additional Assault Marines. I will be going away on Monday for around five weeks so dont think there will be an update for a little while. Cheers!!

shaw3029 Posted August 26, 2010 Author Share Posted August 26, 2010 Cheers guys! Skirax. It would be great to fight with some brother marines. I only fought along side Imperial Fists at the last weekend. I hope to fight alongside the Ultramarines this time. I've been away for a fair while and I've only just got back. I painted the rest of the assault marines up to the same standard as the rest of the army. Hope you like them. http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/Last5AssaultMarines.jpg Cheers!

The emperors chosen Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Very nice,I love what you have done wit the army.

shaw3029 Posted April 11, 2011 Author Share Posted April 11, 2011 It has been a long time! Since then Ive been working on some Necromunda Delaques, my Orks but I have mostly been painting Flames of War Germans. I do however have some paint on my Imperial Fists! http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/IFCombatSquad12.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/IFCombatSquad1.jpg Just five guys at the moment and I wouldnt call them finished as they need Boltguns (from forgeworld) and I am thinking of adding some battle damage to them. Here are some close ups of the Sgt. http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/ImperialFistsSgtLimited2.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/ImperialFistsSgtLimited3.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/ImperialFistsSgtLimited4.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/ImperialFistsSgtLimited.jpg The emperors chosen, I am going to add some sets of the Foreworld Marines. I will be mixing and matching them in with my existing squads and will be replacing some of the Marines that I am less fond of. I also want to add a devastator squad so il be using the Forgeworld heavy weapons as well. Cheers!

pattison Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Honestly I'm happy to see some real yellow again... the whole army should look like these guys, but that's just my taste. Kudos for the GREAT conversion job (somewhat similar to what I'm doing at the moment, just more archaic)!

Dosjetka Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 huh? What happened to the Gritty look? I prefer the new one, it's more "Banana" :) The old ones looked half-finished (no offence). Ludovic Edit: Btw, what's the recipe for these new Imperial Fists?

Dave the Twisted Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 All I gotta say is WOW. Loving the converted metal models, and really digging the painting. This is really the first time the boys in bright yellow have actually looked intimidating to me. Don't listen to Ludovic, keep the gritty brownish-yellow! ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/169850-pre-heresy-imperial-fist-army/page/7/#findComment-2721672 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natanael Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I like the new look. If you're goona do some Huscarls, the new GK have some very nice swords that are perfect. The fluff says they charge into battle carrying huge swords, and there is a lot of two-handed goodies in the GK box =D Just a suggestion. - Natanael Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/169850-pre-heresy-imperial-fist-army/page/7/#findComment-2724019 Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaw3029 Posted July 6, 2011 Author Share Posted July 6, 2011 Wow. Well thanks ever so much for the comments guys!! The Imperial Fists you have seen before weren't finished the ones I posted above was the look I always intended to go for. They will be a little grittier and a little dirtier when they are finished but not by much. Natanael, I've made some Primarch Honour Guard (Huscarls) and they all have the emperors champion sword. I haven't done much work on my Imperial Fist army but I have got a airbrush and it is now up and running. So today I painted all the Siege Shields. http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/SiegeShieldsAirbrush2.jpg I'm going for a very dirty and worn look on all of the vehicles. I shall be repainting them all soon with the airbrush. The siege shields will be the most worn and dirty part but hopefully it gives you a good idea of how the vehicles might look. http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/SiegeShieldsAirbrush4.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/SiegeShieldsAirbrush3.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/SiegeShieldsAirbrush.jpg The marines will still be relatively clean and bright. I've still got a little weathering to do on them but they wont be anywhere near as dirty as the vehicles. I want a contrast between the two. I'm sure it will work out fine in the end. Cheers!

Daemon Smith Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Love the army Shaw, really has that pre-heresy feel. Where'd you get the shoulder guards for the termies?? Sorry if you've already answered this, I just can't be bothered to read through all those comments.

shaw3029 Posted July 7, 2011 Author Share Posted July 7, 2011 Cheers. The shoulder pads are from Maxmini. I had a big package of resin arrive last week, http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/RhinoParts.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/RhinoParts2.jpg I've enough parts to make 4 Rhinos,2 predators and change the tracks on my Land Raider. I am toying with the idea of selling the Rhinos (without the dozer blades) and buying some new ones. So if anybody is interested in the Rhinos and Predators send me a message. Cheers!
