A lot of prep going on this week. Well maybe not a lot, but zero painting occurred.
I continued assembling the Lieutenant and command section for my Imperial Guard for the local Rogue Trader campaign at the end of the month. I still need to build a guy with a grenade launcher for the squad and build a Sergeant for the command section. Still not sure what to do about the Vox Caster guy. Pictured above is the Lt, two man Lascannon, Medic and Orderly (carrying the platoon banner. Still not sure how to handle the difference between the old shoulder mounted lascannon (laszooka) and the 2nd Ed forward crew served Lascannon.
Death Riders basing is finally finished. I need to base coat that and some of the missed spots on teir under carriages.
I also did some base work on the catapult crew. I don't remember points values right now, but I think the cavalry and the engine with crew will get me to the 200 points I need for the OWAC this month.
Lastly I finished the base work on these gents. My intention is to prime them white and try the White Dwarf painting methods.
Thanks for looking and commenting.
Happy painting.
Nice looking projects Sean ! I'm looking forward to see them painted !
ReplyDeleteGreetings !
Thanks Mario, me too. One of these days I'll have finished models to share.
DeleteCool looking minis. Look forward to seeing them finished.
ReplyDeleteThanks Simon. Back at the table today.
DeletePreparation is a time sink but not a step you can skip without paying the hard price later. The painting should be going well with them skelebobs. Good work
ReplyDeleteHi Asslessman. I know, I just get frustrated by having to repaint areas that don't get paint in them the first time.
DeleteI have old metal radios and some new plastic ones. Let me know if you want some.
ReplyDeleteHi Major. I'm assuming radios is code for skeletons. ;) Right now I have way more than I need, but when I expand I may give you a call.
DeleteYou could either say that the shoulder mounted lascannons are some sort of higher tech pattern, now very rare, or use them as special weapons (meltagun)
ReplyDeleteHI Lasgunpacker. Both are good ideas. Right now I only have one Commissar figure with the shoulder mounted "Laszooka." I forget now if the stats are any different between the two.
