10x Vanguard Vets

1x Land Raider

 

I am also working on possibly a 5 man squad of Gunslinger Van Vets. Only have weapons picked out at the moment.

 

I also have bits and bobs that can probably put together another squad of marines. No plans for them at the moment.

 

 

-6 Sanguinary Guard, TH dc marine and rhino...

 

but +10 Sanguinary guard (received in trade for Death Guard half of DI box), +1 Landraider.

I'll also be picking up the BA lieutenant, a box of hellblasters, Aggressors or Redemptor dread (depending on if they have it in store) this weekend and hopefully the Betrayal at Calth box. The BaC box is more for my 30k project and not my 40k stuff.

I guess I should add my new Primaris stuff to the list. 

 

5 Easy-to-build Hellblaster

5 Easy-to-build Intercessor

3 Easy-to-build Inceptor (primed)

1 Easy-to-build Gravis Captain

1 Easy-to-build Ancient

2 Easy-to-build Lieutenants

+ 10 Hellblasters

 

+ 1 conviction to get a decent amount of stuff painted instead of starting new armies (3 is enough for now..... :wink: )

 

So far the conviction is lagging behind the purchases!

 

You can do it - especially with the new scheme. Check out candy red thousand son paint schemes in the HH section, they seem similar to yours. Additionally, death guard are super quick to paint, and golden models are easy with the retributor spray.

It is indeed!

 

The codex is sufficient to get me interested in the RED again so going to roll with that for a little while & clear the back log of a few things that are half complete and now quite fun and viable like Terminators!

 

Death Guard are hitting peaks and troughs in my interest and I'm unsure which direction to take them so they can sit on the bench for now (plus I've only actually bought Mortarion anyway!)

 

40k Ad Mech are at various stages of completion but all at least base coated with some detail.

 

I've then got a chunk of Custodes at TT standard that need some layers/ detail.

 

........and a big chunk of Legio Cybernetica for 30k that I need to 1k points for by March (I'm thinking Xana or whatever the fluff in Cyraxus says!)

Unassembled:

2          Sanguinary Priests (Undetermined Accessories – All hail magnets!)

 

5          Death Company

5          Vanguard Veterans (Want to Magnetize, Lightning Claws, Storm Shields, Thunder Hammers)

2          Command Squad Veteran (Undecided Loadout – Likely Magnets Everywhere)

Assembled w/out Primer:

1          Captain (TH, SS)

1          Librarian (Magnetized Pistol Hand, Power Axe)

3          Death Company (Magnetized Sword hand)

 

Primed:

1          Company Ancient

1          Company Champion (Power Sword, Combat Shield, Bolt Pistol)

 

 

1          Death Company (Bolt Pistol, Chainsword)

 

1          Tactical Marines, (Special Weapon [Flamer: 2/Meltagun: 0/Grav-gun: 0/Plasma gun: 0]), (Heavy Weapon [Heavy Bolter: 0/Heavy Flamer: 0/Multi-Melta: 1/Missile

            Launcher: 1/Plasma Cannon: 1/Lascannon: 0])

 

In Progress (Painting):

4          Death Company (Bolt Pistol, Chainsword)

2          Death Company (Bolter, Power Fist)

1          Chaplain

Edge Highlights Completed:

None

 

So, above I have the remaining models that haven't received some edge highlighting, and aren't painted to tabletop quality. I was able to make a big push thanks to RTS 2017 (Thanks again for providing a great platform for that, Jolemai – so many inspiring entries). With respect to Death Company, I think I'll be altering my color scheme a bit, so once I paint up a test model, I'll let you know. I'm currently painting a couple AM commander/sergeant models to mix things up, but I know I want to finish my Death Company (and repaint a bit on my chaplain) soon.

 

Thanks to all these events, I'm really pleased that I've been able to diminish this pile over the year as much as I have. Now I feel less guilty buying new kits (I think I'm going to use some of my holiday money pick up a command squad and/or another van vet squad for enough bits to make my own Corbolo/another priest, as well as some captains/sergeants with combi weapons). :happy.:

I too am going to be adding a smashy pants captain soon. I had a Sanguinary Guard body someone gave me some time ago that I didn't know what to do with. The pose and ornateness would make a great smashy-pants dude. Got plenty o' hammers from my existing pile of shame so all I need to do is find something suitable for his off hand.
