I'm having so much fun just putting these guys together it'll be a shame to ruin them with a sub-par paintjob. Seriously though, the Sons of Minos march on, this time with special weapons troopers. Full-sized Grey Hunter packs allow for two of each of these, but no heavy weapons. I opted for Meltaguns and Flamers. One is a very old flamer.
I'm going all out with the bits and using up truly the last of the Rogue Trader-era equipment. Here you can see an old combat knife (far left) and the aforementioned flamer. On both Flamer troopers I used Cadian fuel tanks on their backs, because it just looks cool. What also looks cool are the other non-SM packs. On the far left is a Secret Weapon radio pack, and next to him is a plastic Imperial Guard pack. It was small enough I was able to stow away a spare Boltgun, just in case he has to ditch his Meltagun.
These guys are really coming together. They still look like marines, I mean they're recognisable, but you're achieving your own look. Which is fantastic.
ReplyDeleteThose satchels and packs you found look great, much better than I had first thought when you posted about them.
Thanks! Hopefully the color scheme will be the icing on the cake!
ReplyDeleteI was pretty happy with the packs, and from there the rest kind of just took off.
I agree these guys are looking great and very individual which I think is cool. Keep up the great work!
