Finished Imperial Guard - Pic Heavy.

[MaltonNecromancer]

So my girlfriend has a shiny new camera with the best Super Macro function, and so I'm uploading some pictures of my armies for feedback. My IG army is my prime army; I've been a guard player since 1991, so they're very dear to my heart.

Narratively, they're from a Forge World, so there are many more servitors than an IG army would usually field. Also, I have always loved Ogryns, rules be damned, and so they figure quite heavily in all my lists.

Awesome Ogryns.

Wish for WIPs.

[nellis14]

truly brilliant i love the gas masks

[scadugenga]

Holy.

Crap.


That's outstanding work!

[Mike X]

Good stuff but I wouldn't call it "finished" yet, you still have lots of mask details and eyes to do.

[lobster-overlord]

I love how the epic tanks are used as tracks for the servitors. It took me a moment to figure out what they were. And thanks for the good quality pics of these great minis.

[Meph]

Whoa dude! Those models just ooze atmosphere, they look like they walked straight out of a Dan Abnett novel; ^^

[Admiral-Badruck]

I have to say those are some very good Ogryn... much better than my first attempt at them.. you have given me some good inspiration...:D:D

[Nosmo75]

Those Ogryns are unbelievable! <8O

Is the Culexus Assassin scratchbuilt?

[archimbald]

absolutely love the assassin, just wish GW would do better ones two, dont think its a scrath build tho

[MaltonNecromancer]

The assassin is not a scratchbuild. It's one of Urban Mammoth's hercules-class biomechs with a culexus head. the original model looks like this:

I don't (and won't ever) play in a tournament, so I never bother worrying about miniature manufacturers, as while GW make some lovely stuff, there are so many pretty models out there...

[isotope99]

The ogryn's greatcoat is excellent (they all are but the bonehead in particular) .

It would have to be a very mean spirited tournament organiser to complain about the assassin.
