crimsondave Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 No more excuses. I have to get started. I used Mk 3 HH Marines for my god hating (corpse god especially) Iron Warriors. When the new kits came out I put the old painted ones on eBay and bought the new kits. Now I actually have to start on them. I already have 10 Mk 2 3d prints that are the correct scale. I’m making 30 legionnaires, 10 Chosen (Breachers), and 10 Havocs. I decided to start with the Havocs. I do not like the new heads so I got a bunch of the old Mk 3 heads. However, I decided to use the new heads on the Havocs to set them apart. I’m thinking of doing all 8 as lascannons unless I’m talked into some autocannons. Here are the 2 champions and 1st lascannon built.

Firedrake Cordova Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Looks like you're off to a good start. Lascannons seem fitting for the Iron Warriors' doctrine to me, although 8 is a lot! phandaal and crimsondave 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/382202-iron-warriors-upgrade/#findComment-6019521 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearson73 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Really nice clean painting. I like the idea of using breachers as Iron Warriors Chosen.

crimsondave Posted February 12 Author Share Posted February 12 (edited) Finally got my legionaries together. Spoiler Got bored assembling 30 marines so I went to the bits box and made this… Spoiler Don’t have any other Night Lords but I like them. Being a Dark Angels fan exposed me to their lore and I’m kind of a fan of them too. It's a little sloppy but I just put a couple of hours into the whole thing to break up the monotony.

I didn’t even attempt the lightning. That’s the main reason I don’t think it’s going to go any further. I hope.

crimsondave Posted February 27 Author Share Posted February 27 Took a couple weeks, but the 30 CSMs are done. I know the new Mk 3 kits have mixed reviews on the looks but I really like them with the old heads. 3d printed pads with the hazard stripes on them made them so much easier to paint. Spoiler That's just about it for my Chaos Space Marines. I ordered my first Chaos miniatures for 40k ever in February of last year. My very first army was Tzeentch for Fantasy Battle 3rd edition back in early 92 but never any 40k. Haven't worked on much but CSMs for the last year. I have a HH Legion Praetor (2nd Master of Executions?) and a Deredeo dreadnought I may use for IWs but, outside of that, I'm done. Here's my Iron Warriors and Black Legion. Spoiler On to Dark Angels. Been a long time since I've painted a Space Marine. I have Lion and a Dark Talon painted but Lion was a commission and the Dark Talon was a deal I found already painted on Ebay.
