Harrowmaster Posted February 26, 2023 Author Share Posted February 26, 2023 A bit more progress on the Kasrkin: One of my favourite things about this kit is how close it is to the original metal models.

Harrowmaster Posted June 8, 2023 Author Share Posted June 8, 2023 A very brief update (no photos sadly). I have primed and begun painting both my latest Kasrkin squad and the command squad from Cadia Stands, which will lead "B" Company (the veteran company). Progress pictures to follow shortly. I have also assembled another infantry squad for the 119th Steel Legion, though they are still in need of priming. walter h 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/349341-53rd-army-group/page/4/#findComment-5956874 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrowmaster Posted December 3, 2023 Author Share Posted December 3, 2023 Using a leftover chimera chassis from the basilisk kit I have started a Command Salamander for the Cadian 223rd Artillery. It's early days but coming along well. The Sloped armour pieces are the top plates from the Leman Russ sponsons while the long pieces with the dip are the spare plates that come in every chimera chassis vehicle kit that sit on the back of the platform. walter h, The Pounder, GreenScorpion and 1 other 4 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/349341-53rd-army-group/page/4/#findComment-6007139 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrowmaster Posted December 9, 2023 Author Share Posted December 9, 2023 I have made some more progress on the Salamander Command vehicle: The top heavy bolter is from the old heavy weapons squad while the hull heavy flamer is from the chimera chassis vehicles. The plasticard in the back is a platform so that the crew can access the heavy bolter.

Harrowmaster Posted December 28, 2023 Author Share Posted December 28, 2023 Some more Krieg additions, I kitbashed a command squad out of the box. The standard bearer: Medic: Meltagunner: And a Master of Ordnance: These guys plus the earlier gun crew used up 8 of the 10 bodies so I still have two spare guardsmen, not sure what to do with them though. walter h, GreenScorpion, Focslain and 2 others 5 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/349341-53rd-army-group/page/4/#findComment-6012041 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harrowmaster Posted January 21 Author Share Posted January 21 Brief update: I picked these guys up recently to add a bit of original FW flair to the 479th and will be the regimental HQ. I really love these sculpts and if the rumours of full plastic krief are true I didn't want to miss out.

Harrowmaster Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 A very brief update (The Old World has been taking most of my attention). I got some psykers and servitors stripped of their old paintjobs and ready for cleaning. The psykers will be used as primaris psykers or astropaths as needed, I've not got enough to field the psyker battle squad. The gun servitors will be added to inquisitorial retinues while the tech servitors will accompany the enginseer. walter h 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/349341-53rd-army-group/page/4/#findComment-6028871 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrowmaster Posted June 16 Author Share Posted June 16 A brief update, I have completed building the mini for Lord General Matthias Fischer, the commander of the 53rd Army Group: Parts wise he is mostly the standard Castellan with the sheathed power sword from the Cadian Command Squad and the addition of a patrician cloak from Anvil Industry's regiments range. I just need to decide on a paint scheme and build a command squad to accompany him (possibly based on the rogue trader voidsmen).

Harrowmaster Posted October 18 Author Share Posted October 18 A very small update, I managed to pick up the Krieg Commissar kit from GW (I wanted to get it before new plastics come along).
