huntmaster7 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 (edited) I'm juggling two guard regiments. One is steel legion and the other is going to be brimlock dragoons. The camo scheme was kind of inspired by the old paint scheme I found online. I went further and decided to copy Kazakh army chocolate chip camo and the result is pleasing.

Bonehead Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Yep, same opinion here. Always glad to see a camo scheme that isn't just the one on the box. You have a plan for the bases yet?

huntmaster7 Posted January 24 Author Share Posted January 24 I'm not sure what to do for the bases yet. There's a lot of good inspiration on here and I'm thinking of going with urban ruin for these too, I just have a ton of the rubble pieces printed out to use. I'm open to all suggestions and want to try something different though.

Based on the camo scheme I’d go with a desert urban style Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385141-brimlock-dragoon-army-progress/#findComment-6090198 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pounder Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Is this the thread you’ll be using moving forward?  I really like the desert camouflage and the bases suit the scheme you’ve gone with. huntmaster7 and Inquisitor_Lensoven 1 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385141-brimlock-dragoon-army-progress/#findComment-6091205 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheArtilleryman Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Nice work. I’m a big fan of desert themed stuff and I prefer these to the standard box style. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385141-brimlock-dragoon-army-progress/#findComment-6092952 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inquisitor_Lensoven Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 I’m only seeing 1 special weapon. Is there a reason you chose to use only one? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385141-brimlock-dragoon-army-progress/#findComment-6093008 Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntmaster7 Posted February 6 Author Share Posted February 6 Thanks all. I have a cadia stands box and a combat patrol to work on now, plus the stuff I have printed out. For weaponry, I was under the assumption that the squad leader weapon and the plasma gun counted as the 2 specials. I can make another guy with MGL (grenade launcher) or melta gun too. I'm at the stage of just model making because I truly don't quite understand the game rules yet. Inquisitor_Lensoven 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385141-brimlock-dragoon-army-progress/#findComment-6093167 Share on other sites More sharing options...

huntmaster7 Posted February 7 Author Share Posted February 7 This is all printed with an official cadian head. Is this ok to use in a regular squad as standard infantry or would it count as a special war gear option? Arianod 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385141-brimlock-dragoon-army-progress/#findComment-6093211 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool conversion.  Strictly speaking, it would need to be in a heavy weapons squad. These come in squads of six guys with three heavy weapons, split into three teams of two, each of which share a base. Like this:   I have loads of missile launcher teams that are supposed to be on big bases but I run them in twos on small bases. Casual opponents won’t care and it won’t matter just collecting for your own display but in an event you might want to just stand them in pairs big bases like the above.

huntmaster7 Posted February 7 Author Share Posted February 7 Ok awesome thanks for the info. I figured since it was a heavy weapon but not in a deployed stance that it wouldn't need the 50mm base. I'll keep the 2 man crew as is and then of course mount the deployed weapon teams on the larger bases. Bonehead 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/385141-brimlock-dragoon-army-progress/#findComment-6093295 Share on other sites More sharing options...
huntmaster7 Posted February 11 Author Share Posted February 11 Some late night work grinding away at the infantry.

The Pounder Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 These are looking great @huntmaster7!  I noticed that you’ve used T’au heads/skulls on your bases, is this psychological warfare against a regular opponent?
