The third Tactical Squad is finished with the exception of the flamer marine.
The fella with the mohawk has always reminded me of 'Rouge Trooper' from my 2000AD days so he got the blue skin and white eyes.
It was only after I had applied the transfers I noticed how simular the Tacital Squad symbol is to the 'Souther' symbol and kicked myself for the missed opportunity.
I am now half tempted to kitbash up some 'Rouge Trooper' Scouts but as always time will tell.
I also made a start on the Devastator squad.
22 compulsory miniatures to go and maybe some extra heavy weapons and a Command Squad to paint up and I will be all finished . . . . If only I played 40K!!!
Also had another couple of miniatures go to better homes via Ebay.
Miniatures painted / sold this year = 232
Miniatures bought 56
449 miniatures to go!
176 in the Black this year
Awesome work, man! Love the nod to Rogue Trooper!
ReplyDeleteThanks. Long way from your standard but I'm getting there.
DeleteThe trouble is I can only see that type of Marine as 'Rouge' now.
Wow your getting through them mate. Looking good.
ReplyDeleteCheers.
DeleteThey are easy to paint in the poor light and keep my mojo going so job done!
Haha, that's great! You inspired me to get back to my Ultras. Great looking guys!
ReplyDeleteThats good to hear but I should warn you there is a lot of Ultramarine haters out there!
