Showcase: Kill Teams

[Monstra Sumus]

Hard to follow SherryPie's excellent project! 

Here is my humble offering for the completed Kill Team thread. Star Wardens of the War of the False Primarch with a Silver Son attachment.

I've realised I've painted a number of Kill Teams, but not posted several of them here! 

Firstly, the Tauran Covenant; I made this Servants of the Abyss Kill Team during the last edition - sadly not legal in the new version of the game, but I can still use the Chaos Marines and Traitor Guard in their new Teams:

Scions - 101st Thesian Guard 'The Gatekeepers'; I originally painted these 2 years ago, then for the new edition I had to add another Scion (the Melta one) to make it legal (look closely, I used the wrong grey to base their fatigues, so it's slightly different to the rest):

Tyranid Genestealers - I painted these as a palate cleanser after spending 6 months on a single Firstborn Kill Team; my aim was to paint them quickly with numerous washes:

Finally, the most recent Kill Team I've painted, Sororitas of the Order of the Virtuous Blood; I tried some new things with these, like using a metallic base for the armour (which I was pleased with), and a light blue shade for the robes (which didn't come out quite as I'd hoped):

@firestorm40k -Nice work, I love the Acid drips on your Genestealers Base,

The sisters look great, have you tried one of the "new" Blue Contrast paints to fix up the robes?..

Cheers, M.

Thank you  I did the robes about 2-3 months before that new light blue contrast was released, by that time I had 'finished' the robes and moved on to other details. But, yes, if that specific paint had been available when I was initially painting the robes, I'd definitely have used it! I can remember seeing that new blue announced though and thinking 'now they release the paint I needed for those robes..!'

New team:

 

 

Intercession Team of the War Dogs Chapter:

 

 

The Sgt's loadout in the pic isn't KT legal, just looks cool, but he's got magnets to take most of the options; Auto BR, Bolt Pistol, Hand Flamer and Plasma Pistol, Power Sword, Chainsword and Power Fist. The two regular Intercessors (back left and front right) are also magged to switch between Assault with BP/CS and regular Intercessors with Auto BRs.

Kill Team M29, Revenant Legion done! Let loose the angelic cannibals of the IX!

 

 

The commander requires your attention, don't lose your head!

 

 

Fire support requires occasional aiming.

 

 

Phosphex and assorted grenade-shaped treats for everyone!

 

 

Some proper dakka is needed even in the rad-wastes.

 

 

Sons of the Angel, knowingly or not, murderers one and all.

 

 

With bolt and blade, no mutant shall threaten the nascent Imperium ever again.

Made and Iron Warriors Kill Team from the Compendium Book. Also working on Legionary and a few other guys to have a 20 man roster for both types of teams.

Very cool. I like the look of your gritty armor color. Also, the standard bearer is well done. 

[Sothalor]

That plasma gun is amazing.

[Firedrake Cordova]

Stunning work

 

I really like the dirty, grimy armour tones.

[Sherrypie]

Beautiful bunch of IV, that. Solid use of varied bits there, especially on the sniper fellow.

[Magos Takatus]

Somehow I haven't posted here. I'll introduce you to my Kill Team Kriegers.

This project was a test for Streaking Grime which did a lovely job of taking their nice ivory helmets and turning them disgustingly grimy. War is not kind to these men. Also note the "#1 Sniper" cup on the marksman which is a reference to the Team Fortress 2 "Meet the Sniper" video.

Love the 'chipped enamel' look of the cream/bone sections, gorgeous work.

[Firedrake Cordova]

Very nice work! The chipped look of the mug is a really nice touch  

[Rogue]

Also, that plasma glow :)
