Sniper conversion

Time for a small update. Managed to start making fifth sniper model. Made the scratch today and used some milliput to see how it fits on the base. I will be adding stuff on the base and doing some minor detailing with the figure like ghillie suit. Its pretty hard to make natural looking proning poses with the existing bits, but I am pretty happy with this one! Decided to use larger biker base so I can maybe make it look little better as the small 25mm base gets easily bit too full.

3rd shocktrooper squad

Finally finished my 3rd shocktrooper squad. I've been also working on my gaming table that can be seen on the pictures. Not much to see yet, but I have few terrain pieces under work and hopefully I can get them done soon enough.

More shocktroopers inbound

Finally got my "last" shock trooper squad finished.. After I've painted these and few more tanks i will have full 40+1 platoon of these buggers.

Also started making gaming table, I will post you some pics when I got something to show. Now it is only basecoated.

Been wondering for 6 years how to mount that missile launcher to shoulder and now figured it out. Was actually very easy, lol. Now I just had a problem as other squads have tripods for their missile launchers, but well I figured they carry few installements with them so they can swap it from shoulder launch to sentry mode if needed.

Tau color theme test

As I am also planning on building a tau and allied xeno army.. So I have had this objective marker laying around for ages and I haven't painted it becouse I haven't got my tau colour scheme decided. But now on weekend I finally came up with satisfying alternative and did my first test. What do you think? I wanted it to go well with the deserted rural look and to fit well to urban areas as well.. Thus the bluish grey colour. Also makes it pop and maybe give more advanced look. Any thoughts or ideas? Should I go with this? Also I haven't decided the sept colour yet.. Think about green maybe..

So this is just objective marker representing shot down intel drone that has been scouting the Darkon territories. Even if it is damaged, it must be obtained as fast as possible as it may still contain very a lot of classified information that must not get to hands of enemy.

The Big Gun

Got my sniper team finally painted. Spent way too many hours modeling this but I don't regret it. In my opinion maybe one of the best models I've made so far.. Also really enjoyed doing this one the whole time.

Now thinking what I should start working on next. So much to do and so many ideas on my mind.

Stay tuned!

The Wolf

A member of a respected Crimson mercenary group. True powerhouse and fist fighter.

Darkon mercenaries

I just had to start making mercenary group! They make their living by doing bounty work, scavenging wasteland, protecting mines, traders etc, hunting drones and doing contracts for Imperial military. They can spend weeks on the wasteland and have very good survival skills.

So here are first two members. Still need bit sanding, gs work and maybe adding some bitz. Cant wait to paint these buggers..

"Crimson"

Used to be a sergenant in Darkon Imperial military, but had enough of it and started his own mercenary group. Very experienced and phenomenal shooter.

"The Wolf"

Worked his lifetime in mine in his hometown, but after the mine was closed he lost his job and became an alcoholic. In one drunken night he got into a bar fight with a arrogant bastard called "Crimson" and beat the crap out of him. Crimson was so impressed he decided to hire the guy to his recently established mercenary group. They became good friends and been doing mercenary work together since then. Equipped with old and worn AG3 mk.I surplus rifle.
