Stepping between Games - Squaduary Feb 2018. Heresy Era Imperial Fists, Rapier Quad Bolter Battery

Hi All

Bluddtoof here with a post introducing my entry into "Squaduary Feb 2018" this years event hosted by Rory at "Stepping Between Games".



This is a great opportunity to get some motivation for painting up a unit, head over to his blog for more info and inspiration.

So as this is week 1; I've built the unit; a trio of rapiers with quad bolters.....




and applied a base coat of zandri dust which is drying as wee speak. (No pics yet)

It was a bit tricky getting the gunners right arm in the correct position so I played around with pinning and in the end I chopped off the lever that controls the gun carriage and replaced it with a jewellery wire pin into the hand. these are are all currently un glued so once it's all painted and I'm ready for assembly, I can adjust as needed. But I reckon they're pretty close as they are.

More to come soon as I put on some paint...

Stepping Between Games - Squaduary FEB 2018 - Scions - Arming for the Cypra Incident Continues

Morning All,

Rory over at stepping between games has put out his annual rallying call for painters to get the hobby new year going by painting a squad in February.  As I haven't done anything yet this year I thought I would take up the mantle.  Thanks Rory for the motivation.


The first week is for building but I have already put mine together as WIP in January here.  Since that post I have based and primed the models and they are currently in this state heading into Squaduary month.


Before I get cracking though I need to think through a colour scheme to match the wider force but also stand apart.

More posts across the month on this squad

Cheers
