Blackmane Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Hey allIt' been a while since I last posted on B&C.Behold my new AM army! It's a speed paint project and it will not be as detailed and "pro-painted" as my Wolf army C & C are welcome.I start of with my Ratlings converted from skull pass thunderers. There's 9 in total.http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Ratlings/DSC08623_zpsf51909c5.jpghttp://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Ratlings/DSC08616_zpse0e8900e.jpghttp://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Ratlings/DSC08627_zpsd5160d72.jpg-enjoy-Martin Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294219-blackmanes-astra-militarum/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stercus Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I like those. How did I they escape from being eaten by tyranids? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294219-blackmanes-astra-militarum/#findComment-3755619 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackmane Posted July 25, 2014 Author Share Posted July 25, 2014 Next up are my Sentinels. The only thing missing is army badges to tie -in with my space wolves: http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Sentinels/DSC06566_zpsdcf158dd.jpg http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Sentinels/DSC06574_zps97ca509b.jpg http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Sentinels/DSC06586_zpsda1f8c9e.jpg http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Sentinels/DSC06591_zpsf687d575.jpg http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Sentinels/DSC06585_zpse4406c6a.jpg http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Sentinels/DSC06593_zps8299adfd.jpg The weapons are magnetized and there sits a magnet so that I can add a Hunter killer.

Blackmane Posted July 25, 2014 Author Share Posted July 25, 2014 Master of Ordnance: http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Veterans/DSC08559_zpscbe50a2e.jpg The white stripe designates him as being of lieutenant-level rank. http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Veterans/DSC08562_zpsafea4a37.jpg Veterans. As some of you might have guessed I attempt to create a multi era Red Army feel, and my veterans are inspired by modern-day Spetsnaz: http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Veterans/DSC08564_zps88c54447.jpg You'll see that some power packs and barrels are missing. I'm waiting to have some 3d drawing printed to finish them off. http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Veterans/DSC08583_zps7918dc97.jpg http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Veterans/DSC08570_zpsa9a180b7.jpg http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Veterans/DSC08587_zpsf1c21548.jpg Close up of their squad badge http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Veterans/DSC07702_zps74719d29.jpg http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Veterans/DSC08574_zpscb06e3da.jpg http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Veterans/DSC08578_zpseab58926.jpg http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Veterans/DSC08580_zps037618cc.jpg Close-up of the sergeant next to a standard infantry squad sergeant: http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/Imperial%20guard/Veterans/DSC07690_zps94b5eb95.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294219-blackmanes-astra-militarum/#findComment-3755671 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 I love the cut-down lasguns (the ones with barrels). A small but very nice conversion. Nice painting too.

WarriorFish Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 This is great work, I love the extra details and conversion you've done - the Ratlings especially. The berets are very good, with the camouflage scheme they really stand out and it's not hard to see their influence. Well done, keep them coming! I assume you'll be doing tanks at some point? I can't wait to see what you do with them, you'll be doing them in a nice WWII era colour right? :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294219-blackmanes-astra-militarum/#findComment-3759814 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackmane Posted July 30, 2014 Author Share Posted July 30, 2014 Thank you Computer says yesss. My tanks will be in WW2 era colours. Next up will be conscripts with commissar conversion, storm troopers or female junior officer It's kinda funny you say extra detail as this was meant to be a speed paint project Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294219-blackmanes-astra-militarum/#findComment-3760417 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 How can it be a speed project with all the extra stuff you're doing to the models? :lol: I know from experience that camouflage schemes are the exact opposite of speed ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294219-blackmanes-astra-militarum/#findComment-3761671 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackmane Posted August 25, 2016 Author Share Posted August 25, 2016 Long time no see.

BlueBelly1863 Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 These are really great. Love the Soviet theming to them, the conversion work is really well done. I have a thing for commissars, so I especially love the megaphone guy!

Blackmane Posted February 16, 2017 Author Share Posted February 16, 2017 Hey guys I started working a bit on this project again: First of is the IPCS with female officer. I think I will add a heavy flamer model and a vox operator As always is C&C welcome http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/IMG_1242_zpsfi48mers.jpg Next up is the first three of 30 conscripts: http://i957.photobucket.com/albums/ae54/Frizze/IMG_1262_zpswsuowors.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294219-blackmanes-astra-militarum/#findComment-4658106 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I like the commander and her swagger stick, the green came out nicely on the troopers and I particularly like the simple but effective bases - works well together :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294219-blackmanes-astra-militarum/#findComment-4660579 Share on other sites More sharing options...
