Red Skullz Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Hi, New year, new army! Been many years since I made an imperial army. http://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a607/tomkristians/Mobile%20Uploads/IMAG0912_zpswewbzxx0.jpg Ain't that the cutest thing! I'm slowing it down and will try to do my best at both converting and painting this army. Will be a mechanized infantry army in a winter environment, but with only standard issue. I already have a knight in the mail that will support it and I've got 50+ jump marines that might get allied in. Prepared my test model as well. http://i1286.photobucket.com/albums/a607/tomkristians/Mobile%20Uploads/IMAG0915_1_zps7sdtfmjy.jpg I run a blog and more details and thoughts there but I'd love to get feedback, hints and tips here as well :) https://bigbossredskullz.wordpress.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Skullz Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 Base turned out like I hoped it would. Wet and heavy snow over rocks and undergrowth. Wet&coldfeet.com is a soldiers life.

Red Skullz Posted January 27, 2015 Author Share Posted January 27, 2015 Thank you :) was a lot of fun to paint actually so I'm considering doing the same color scheme on my knight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Skullz Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 Getting my first 1500 points list ready. Still lacks my 3 leman russes but it's getting there. Note that the knight is not my paintjob. Got it second hand and it will undergo a complete makeover.

Red Skullz Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 Thanks :) it's a true trial of patience making a resin army I'm experiencing but I think it's ok because then I don't rush it either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Skullz Posted February 6, 2015 Author Share Posted February 6, 2015 I'm just dropping this picture to get some feedback from the general public here on my mini-warhound knight. Does it work and what should I adress next to seal the deal on this battlefield repaired knight?

kapturowski Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Hi! :) I really like the idea of basing the crew of the Centaur, I wish I would have thought of that. The painted Centaur looks awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
