jimbo1701 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Hi all. Continuing my power armour obsession I decided to crack on with a half-done project in order to have it ready for a tournment in June. I already had all the parts I needed for an Iron hands army they just needed some imaginationa and assembly to bring it all together. I'm now starting to paint the army, specifically focussing on the 1750 points I'm taking to the tournament. HQ There are 3 HQs to choose from in the army, a Master of the Forge and a counts as Calgar and Cassius. The latter two have been heavily converted to represent the weaponry in the profiles (aside from the servo arm on Cassius) but with an Iron hands spin. http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t286/jimbo1701/IMG_0236.jpg http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t286/jimbo1701/IMG_0222.jpg http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t286/jimbo1701/IMG_0224.jpg Troops The troops section of the army consists of three full tactical squads and two rhinos between them. I've tried to make all the troops as distinctive as possible using as many bionics as possible. Here's a model I'm particularly fond of. http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t286/jimbo1701/IMG_0230.jpg Elites Elites comprise a squad of mixed assault terminators, a techmarine on bike and a venerable dreadnought, though I don't have any good shots of them at the moment. The terminators do however have a land raider transport which I converted to have exposed tracks on the top. http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t286/jimbo1701/IMG_0237.jpg Fast attack Fast attack simply consists of a squad of bikes to accompany the techmarine. The highlight of the squad is my attack 'quad' which is heavily converted. http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t286/jimbo1701/IMG_0233.jpg Heavy support The heavy slot consists of 3 tanks: a predator, a whirlwind and a vindicator. All three are modern rhino chassis with second edition weaponry to make them a bit more distinctive and archeotech. http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t286/jimbo1701/IMG_0234.jpg http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t286/jimbo1701/IMG_0227.jpg Check out my blog for a few more pics and detail about the army (and others). Comments, questions and crits welcomed. Cheers, Jimbo. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/250889-iron-hands-conversions-wip/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you do his gorget (I think its called?) might nick that idea! ;) Cheers pal, looking forward to painting them up! The gorget was from the venerable dreadnought kit and needed a bit of greenstuff work around the sides to get it to fit properly. Worth it tho!
