[EPIC] Kyussinchains' Imperial fists

[Jimmy Zimms]

Great looking bunch of Marines there Simon. If I ever make it out to your side of the pond again I'll have to bring my Minotaurs with me so we can have a tussle. The Emperors Praetorians vs the HLoT Killers, Who will win?

[kyussinchains]

If you're ever on this side of the pond, it would be a crime not to....

You could join the hallowed ranks of people who have given me a 5-0 kicking!

Good to see some Epic painting over here.  The yellow is very well painted.  You've done very well with that, as it's an exceptionally difficult colour to paint with in my opinion.

[kyussinchains]

daemon yellow spray, devlan mud wash and lots of layers of yellow to bring it back up....

[kyussinchains]

finished a couple more units for the force:

dread #2 and some predators

[Stormwind]

Excellent work, they look stunning!

[kyussinchains]

it's been a fair while since I updated this blog! I've been pretty busy with the imperial fists as well as starting my AMTL, speed freaks and emperor's children....

thought I'd share a little progress with some more units from the force:

Vindicators


Rapiers (proxy as thunderfire cannons)


Bikes


I'm halfway through a landing craft at the moment, then it will be predator destructors, more hunters, assault marines and a second bike formation! hope you enjoy!

[Stormwind]

Looking good, man!  What kind of characters (Chaplains / Librarians / Commanders) have you chosen to go with each group?

[Jimmy Zimms]

Well there's a chappy on the bike for certain

[kyussinchains]

Yeah mostly chaplains really.... by far the best marine character in my experience, I try to keep characters out of vehicles when possible, I used bikes in a thunderhawk at the last tourney I attended and I can see them working if used decently as a T3 objective nabber

[marell le fou]

Very nicely looking ! Great job. I like the motos and the round base. Unexpected.

[kyussinchains]

I've had a bunch of time away from painting due to repetetive strain injury on my wrists making it difficult to paint for extended periods, I've been having physiotherapy and changing my workstation around and now I managed to get some paint on some miniatures! here's a shot of the contingent I managed to get painted in the last couple of weeks:



and while the army is far from complete, here's a shot of everything painted so far!

[Stormwind]

An absolutely gorgeous army shot.

Something you can be proud of.

Excellent army. Can I suggest you move to South Australia?
