My finished Guard so far. Part 2: Heavy weapons squads

G'day everyone,

later post than I would have liked, busy with work and real life, too tired, blah, blah blah, excuses....etc, anyways.

Today we have some pictures of my finished heavy weapons teams. Still have a mortar team to build, still trying to decide how to pose them considering this platoon is mostly "in motion", not sure a running mortar team would look the part. Your thoughts?

here we have team 1, Missile launchers. as my army is Urban themed I wanted to take the chance to give the teams a sort of mini diorama feel that only the large bases allow.

Team 2, Heavy bolters, still seems I need to drill one of the barrels.

well there you go, I hope you enjoyed them, please let me know wht you think.

thanks for looking.

Cheers Cuthbo

My finished Guard so far. Part 1: Infantry squads

G'day everyone.

Today I have decided to post up the few pictures of my finished models thus far. These guys have gone through many changes and rebuilds over the years until they have reached this point. Some are fresh builds, others have been ripped apart and rebuilt.

I have tried to give each squad a particular "feel" determined by their battlefield role. These guys are from my 1st Platoon, I use them for storming objectives and moving rapidly up the board, so I have tried to give all the squads a real feel of movement.

Anyway onto the pictures:

This is 1st squad, of my 1st platoon, a few closeups showing the overall gritty feel I'm going for as well as there range of extra kit.

Assault trooper, Sergeant and signals officer

Wow, that was a few pictures, let me know if you would like any more angles or closeups of particular models. Hope you liked them, please leave any thoughts, comments, ideas etc you would like. Next up will be the heavy weapons teams and maybe some background fluff.

Cheers for stopping by.
