Crimson Fists WIP


Recommended Posts

Hi guys, I've decided to return to 40k after some 8 year hiatus, and as Crimson fists were the chapter I used to collect (and have always been my favourite chapter), I am returning to painting them. At the minute, I am making and painting a storm raven. Following this I will be moving onto a command squad, with Pedro, a terminator squad and some sternguard veterans, I'll update this page as I go, any C&C will be welcomed (I am, after all, quite rusty after such a long break).

I have decided to turn this fist post into a completed works post, for people just browsing:

Very cool. As a long term crimson fist player and collector I have been wondering what a raven would look like in the blessed colours.

 

You've done a great job too. Keep on going fella. Ill be following your thread, we need more crimson fists players on here

Thanks for the positive comments man, always nice to meet a fellow Fists player. 

 

Small update, just made up my command squad champion with blutack, to test out the pose I wanted him in.

Well, I made a fair amount of progress with my champion (most of it removing the icon on the shield in preparation of receiving my etched brass fist logos), and here are some pics of what I've done so far. I'm not sure how I feel about the helmet yet, any comments would be welcomed.

Wow you are painting fast Lol

 

On a personal level I don't like gold helmets on crimson fists, I keep it plain but still give it the vet feel if that makes sense.

I have been pretty busy today, so all I managed to do is to finish off my champion (bar the shield, still waiting for my brass sprue to arrive rolleyes.gif ). I ended up changing the helmet for the one out of the CF command sprue set. As always, I welcome any c&c!

Small update, made the mock-ups of my veteran sergeant and apothecary, not sure how to go about painting the apothecary, wondering if I should do him all white or just the white pauldron and helmet. Any suggestions?

May I present to you the current members of Command Squad Viri: Apothecary Dominio, Champion Cragus and Veteran Sergeant Gosdon (Who recently returned from service with the Deathwatch, during which he discovered and subsequently was allowed to name and keep the relic blade 'Polux's Might')

As always, I welcome all C&C. I should be making a start on the final two members of the squad, Standard Bearer Arroyo and Veteran Brother Romero.

Just thought I'd upload another few photos in better light this time:

May I present to you the Standard Bearer, Veteran Brother Arroyo, who lost his leg (but gained his veterancy) during the defence of New Rynn City. After the rest of his combat squad were killed during an ork attack an a breach in the defensive wall, Brother Arroyo honoured their memory by repelling the initial attack and the two subsequent raids alone. Reinforcements arrived in time to help push back the final ork attack. It was during this attack that Arroyo lost his leg, in one on one combat with a killa kan; Arroyo sacrificed his leg to get behind and strike a killing blow to the infernal xenos machine, before the orks finally retreated and the breach was sealed.

 

As always, I welcome any C&C, hope you like!

Just a small update on my sternguard veterans: Twins Oro and Verno, recruited from Blackwater, the twins went through their trials together and are practically inseparable, both having served in the same Deathwatch Kill-team, for the same amount of time. Both showed an uncanny aptitude and efficiency at killing big xenos with big weapons, making them highly valued members of the sternguard.
