Default Imperial guard motivational diary...

Ok, I have no real pics or such just yet, but in order to force myself into getting some, and more then one finished model, I decided to jump on this train. This first post contains really nothing...
I could write:
2000 points IG- not yet primed...
But soon they will be finished

*taps foot*



Have you got an idea of what models you want, or what you're planning on painting first, or what? I find it's much easier if you have a bit of a plan, even if you don't stick to it

I'll be using the Steel Legion models, all metal. Some special units will be Mordians - I'm thinking HQ-hangarounds.
My first unit will be a rather converted Armoured fist Squad(melta, heavy flamer-team vet sarge), next up will be the JO and his four men. 3 Plasmas and a Vox.
But I'll get back with a more serious schedule when time is on my side...tonight like...

Ooo.. this could be fun to follow! I loved your chaos thingy*... I look forward to seeing these done, and I hope to see many conversions!

I told you before, I have no real pics, but till I do these will have to be sufficient. They are in different WIP-stages, from very crude conceptuals to near finished.
The pics are just as bad as you have come to expect from me, but when I have a full unit painted I'll take some extra time and read a "how to take pics of your minis"-guide.
First out is my Junior Officer and three of his guards. They are all carrying plasmaguns and in the few games I played, they have actually been a real success.
Click the image to open in full size.
I use Mordians for those a bit more fancy guys, but I'm adding some gasmasks and some legth to their coats to make them blend in. The JO is far to evil to be needing a gasmask, it takes far more to kill him. Really it does...

Next out is the first part of my Heavy Flamer team, they'll be mounted in a Chimera under command of a vet sarge, the one on the following pic. I have also made a Melta gunner but the pics I took on him were to bad even for me to post.

The Flamer guy is quite finished, I have still got some work to do on the hose and such, but the Sarge is but a concept. I used Green Stuff instead of Bluetac though... I guess he is Greentacked.

The last pic of the evening is the crudest conversion this far, also just greentacked, he is the first of my "ratlings". Can't really play guard without using snipers ow can you?
I love the Image of some wicked ones hiding in a bombed out building carefully aiming at people and nobody knew what hit them. To me that is just way to cool an image to ignore. I guess they won't be the most used unit but I really don't care
And remember, he is but greentacked. He'll get a greatcoat and a sniperrifle, hopefully tonight.

Excellent Andusciassus. I always enjoy your work and am looking forward to seeing your army.

They look awesome buddy, but I have a small (yet irritating) question.
Can regular guard take Heavy Flamers? I'm not overly familiar with the codex, but I had a quick look and couldn't find anything...

Also, you've just inspired my next "guide to:..." which will hopefully be photography. Lucky for me I'm picking up my new camera on saturday, so I can photograph myself taking photos, as it were.
Hopefully it will be of some use to you

I really must say, you're far braver than me, I couldn't think about attempting a guard army unless I managed to clear my entire life for about a year... Too... many... minis...

Keep up the good work

-t.

The Steel Legion minis (generally) wear full-face gas-masks, so the flat panel just below his helmet is actually a visor. I'd find some painted pics, but GWUK seems to be denying they exist. Odd.

Nope, you are spot on, they can't. But I just don't care since it's such a sweet weapon.
This is how it all came to be. I saw the HF-team on the FW-site and I liked it, so I asked my mate, Kristofer who I usually play with, if it would be alright for him if I used it. Since you can have it if you buy the Jungle Fighter doctrine, and I would be willing to pay the points mentioned, he said it was OK.
I think it is one of the coolest (pun intended) weapons around and it fits those trench fighters perfect (IMHO).

They are OOP, that's why.. But of course good old -t is right, he has eyes but underneath. Don't try to lure me into chaosyfying him please... mmm eyes mmm...

Then I guess I'll just send you the army and let you take the pics

@Kuffy, Rabbit & Silvanest: thanks guys. With a project this size I need all the support I can get.
