I don't paint show armies very often, mostly because of the crazy amount of work required to complete one, this army for example took a staggering 14 months to paint from start to finish!
That being said I am very happy with how well it came out.
This is my Imperial Fists 5th Battle Company, and as you will probally be able to guess from the troop/weapon selections, is was never designed to see battle. Although I did take it to a local event, and as a really scary thought I won 2 out of 4 matches and had a 3rd come down to a single dice roll (which I lost).
Well thats enough of a blargh, its pics you want to see!!

The token throw away unit, Vanguard Veterans

The rest of 'em, Sternguard, Devestators and 2 Tactical squads, I do have individual pictures around here somewhere, I just can't seem to find them at the moment...
Unfortunately I didn't win best painted army, but I had fun all the same.
Sorry about the bad quality pictures, they were taken on my mobile phone, and thats never the clearest camera, but that aside, what do you think?
