Last of a ragged house.....Contemptor Talon completed

[Varyn]

The paint work on Angron is really nice, lots of subtle details and weathering. The tattoos on his face look just right and the metallic effect on his armour is spot on.

 

Another fine addition to the army Cadmus

Waiting for my Angron to arrive, will definitely be using this as inspiration great work.

“Endryd, the Ancients are with you. We have discussed it in the cold and the dark, during the endless wait in between the waking.
 

Whatever decision you make we are with you, but you already know….there is only one course of action……..we must end him. Only then will we finally rest and only then will honour be restored to the XIIth…..”

Well, I thought it was about time to start bringing the XIIth legion into 2.0. Think I might have broken the “gentleman’s agreement” regarding dreadnought numbers!

“If history has taught us anything, it is that humanity is destined to repeat itself. At times dragging itself out of the mire of depravity for the briefest of moments, only a to be pulled back to the nature within. 

 

From the Gladiatorial games of the ancient Romanii empire to the Blood pits of the pan pacific empire, men have fought and died for the entertainment of the corrupt nobility of its time. 

 

But we have overcome the dictator and having overthrown the weak and the corrupt, we fight for honour, in pursuit of martial prowess. My father has perfected this art and the path of the rampager is one that many a warrior aspires to tread. But the thirst for victory can never be quenched, and so we are ever driven on until our ambitions are ended by the cold steel of defeat….”

Well, I’ve been saving these FW MKii for something special and with the new rules for rampagers, it had to be done! 
 

I couldn’t get my hands on enough Falax blades but I think the sabres work well and lend themselves to a slightly different “Terran veteran” vibe that seems to fit with my overall concept for Endryd Haars loyalist company. 
 

hope you like em!

Mk II at its finest!

[LameBeard]

The sabres are used as Falax blades in the Exemplary Battles article, so you are in good company. Yours are superior of course - Mk II for the win! (as the young people say)

[Pearson73]

The sabres look ace, nice mix of poses throughout the squad too.

[Varyn]

Another excellent addition to the army Cadmus

[BadgersinHills]

Gorgeous, these three are gonna be a right menace barrelling down the centre.

[Marshal Mittens]

Those look really amazing. Great to see a full talon painted to such a high standard. Blood for the Blood God!
