captain sox Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Hello! Moving Forward this will be the ongoing progress pages for all mt Astra / IG projects. I will start off by showing what has been completed / painted: http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/a496/Odogg242/photo11_zps4dc4cca0.jpg http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/a496/Odogg242/photo31_zps39429637.jpg http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/a496/Odogg242/photo12_zpsf8d1a73b.jpg http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/a496/Odogg242/photo22_zps28b7d0e4.jpg http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/a496/Odogg242/photo32_zpsf7685a59.jpg All the above were completed during the ETL 3 event. That's my painted army to this point, but I do have lots on my building table. I've decided to completely paint one model or squad before moving on to the next one. Eventually, I'll get a group shot of all that is awaiting paint. But for now, here is what I am currently working on: http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/a496/Odogg242/photo1_zps8db02e34.jpg The Russ' and Chimera have a lined camo scheme, so I think artillery and fast attack will have to have something different, but with the same colours. Stay tuned... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294884-soxs-astra-guard-army-tanktastic-update-on-page-3/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarriorFish Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 What do you mean? Regiments are crying out for Baneblade support, you should be saying you don't have enough Baneblades! :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294884-soxs-astra-guard-army-tanktastic-update-on-page-3/#findComment-3784911 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is far too good a deal to miss though, but I am not sure if I need a second Baneblade or if I will live long enough to build all the models I have waiting in the queue I know what you're saying about the backlog. I'm finishing the Hydra, have to prime the Valkyrie, and I just built the first of 3 Manticore / Deathstrike models. And I ordered the parts to make a second set of weapon sponsons for my Hellhammer. I was exctied when the instructions showed you could build ANY of the variants of the superheavy, but alas, it's only the Baneblade or Hellhammer. I have found my wishlist got much smaller though! Enjoy your kits! And thanks all for the birthday wishes! I'm happy to be here!

WarriorFish Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Backlogs are just the Emperor testing your resolve. No excuses, for that is to fail His test! Thanks to the ETL I have passed my test, I can even buy new kits guilt free now Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294884-soxs-astra-guard-army-tanktastic-update-on-page-3/#findComment-3785654 Share on other sites More sharing options...
