Hi all,

We've been hard at work building a second Tactical Squad for our heavily converted, Adeptus Mechanicus themed army. Just as before there are lots of scratchbuilt bionics, servo arms and similar upgrades.

Lots more pictures and info available here:

Let us know what you think of the conversions, and if you have any ideas or thoughts to help us progress. We have big plans for Techmarine Dreadnoughts and similar, so keep checking back! If you missed our 1st Tactical Squad and Master of the Forge conversions, you can see them here: http://gravengames.co.uk/tag/iron-guard/

Some really nice models.

Remind me to steal your ideas when I get around to doing a small force from the Praetors of Orpheus :p

The only thing I'd say is it seems like every marine has at least a couple of bionic replacement parts -- these guys really need to learn how to duck ! ;)

As for colour scheme, I feel like dark grey, silver and a scarlet/deep red are most appropriate, maybe with a little black and/or yellow as spot colours. Not sure quite where to put them on the marines' armour though.

Thanks Chris,

Your comment on needing to learn to duck really made me laugh! I like your idea on the colour scheme, it will definitely be considered, will need to do a few test models first.
