Azarians Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Hello Guardsmen ! I open a new topic for shows you my Imperial guard army: The thunderer ! The Thunderer regiment is a regiment from Ophelia VII, a planet in the Segmentum Tempestus. Ophelia VII is known for his devotion to the Emperor. Its surface is covered with tall steeples of cathedrals and several kilometers wide , connected by avenues where you can admire the statues of hundreds of Imperial Saints . The thunderer regiment specializes in urban warfare, the soldiers of this regiment are trained against all threats: Tyranids, Orks, Eldars, Tau and Chaos Space Marines. The light on the shoulder's soldiers is the last things that their ennemies see, and the roar of engine like the thunder is the last thing that their ennemies hear. The thunderer regiment participated in the war against the Waaagh! Grax, on Ryza, in 925.M41 and in 976.M41. This regiment participated in several war against all the ennemies of the Emperor. And the thunderer regiment will help the ord Castellan Ursakar Creed agaisnt the Abbadon's army. So I finished my first squad of guardsmen : The mark on the right shoulder is for the number of the squad, on the lightning is the mark of my regiment I have some tanks but I must work on them ^^ I have to finish the basecoat on my vet: And i have to paint a lot of conscripts and guardsmen...

WarriorFish Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I like the colours, good choice and quite a unique scheme too :tu: You're off to a good start :) The bases are nice and simple but tidying up the side of the base is a must for giving them a clean finish. When can we expect to see some tanks? ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/312566-wip-am-the-thunderer-regiment/#findComment-4150181 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azarians Posted August 18, 2015 Author Share Posted August 18, 2015 So there is Pask and his wingmen paint by Tomsev, but like a good Space Marines, he didn't finish is job (But I must admit that I haven't painted as well) !!

WarriorFish Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Nice colours and again a creative scheme, I don't think you'll have any problems replicating it. Your army will look grand on the table What sort of finishing are you thinking of? All I can see is maybe a few details need picking out like the lenses and skull/wreath but otherwise just a bit of weathering if you fancy it?

CoffeeGrunt Posted August 19, 2015 Share Posted August 19, 2015 Looking very good, though by the title I was expecting a horde of the Thunderer Tanks from Forge World. I feel you'd be missing a trick if you didn't get/kitbash one! :P Really liking your Pask and buddy tanks there, looking forward to more! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/312566-wip-am-the-thunderer-regiment/#findComment-4150710 Share on other sites More sharing options...

vampyrerodent Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Very nice! You have the start of a strong Company there. I too like the bases, not too overdone. Your shoulder pads look good with their simplicity. Good work!

elmo Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Looks like a fantastic army. Just one small complaint, next time can you take the photos with a neutral background so we can fully appreciate the hard work you have put into the models. It can be as simple as a white sheet of paper.

WarriorFish Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Perhaps it is my imagination but they look improved compared to the last ones. Better pictures thanks to the paper too. Either way you're producing good work at a nice pace, this is the sort of dedication that's needed to get a Guard army going in short order :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/312566-wip-am-the-thunderer-regiment/#findComment-4156450 Share on other sites More sharing options...
