Another distraction :) ... This is the first of many and is a conversion of an "Avatars of War - Dwarf Seeker":



He is still WIP because I am waiting for my Anvil Industry order to arrive so that I can finish it :) . I plan to convert the whole box so there will be 20 of these (when I eventually finish them) :0 ...

They should fit in well (size wise) with the rest of my army:

Back to a previous unit and I have finished the shotgun veterans:



I have now started on the Primaris Psyker (Jedi Beastman) for the third infantry platoon:

The Beastman Jedi is getting there now... Just the head and arms to go :) :



I've also dug out the command squad and platoon commander, ready for them to get their arms as well :) .

Cheers :) ... however...

In yet another dramatic turn of events, I decided to do a little bit of reorganising and have trimmed down a Battalion in to a Vanguard Detachment.

That meant that instead of needing to convert 10 terminators, 5 scouts and 6 scout bikers, all I needed to do was convert 1 terminator Sgt (for 2 squads of 5 terminators, instead of 2 squads of 10) and 1 scout biker sgt (for 2 squads of 3 rather than 6). It also meant that I could shed the scout squad because the choice wasn't mandatory any more :) ...

... With that in mind, I have already converted the Terminator Sgt and now have 2 squads of 5 Terminators. In the image below, each squad is accompanied by a terminator captain:



The terminators will be Squats in Exo Armour :) .

As an aside, I have now started to convert the scout biker sgt and he should be ready by the weekend :) (Squat Hearthguard Bikers).

The Vanguard Detachment is now complete :) . I have finished converting the Sgt Scout Biker (Hearthguard Biker) so I now have two little bike squads:



The Vanguard Detachment consists of:

Terminator Captain (Exo Armoured Squat Lord)
Terminator Captain (Exo Armoured Squat Lord)
Terminator Squad (5) (5 Squats in Exo Armour)
Terminator Squad (5) (5 Squats in Exo Armour)
Scout Squad (5) (5 Squat Hearthguards)
Scout Squad (5) (5 Squat Hearthguards)
Scout Biker Squad (3) (3 Squat Hearthguard Bikers)
Scout Biker Squad (3) (3 Squat Hearthguard Bikers)
Centurion Squad (3) (3 Squats in Repurposed Mining Suit)
Centurion Squad (3) (3 Squats in Repurposed Mining Suit)
Dreadnought (1) (Squat Dreadnought)
Dreadnought (1) (Squat Dreadnought)

Now all I need to do is paint everything :) .

I still have all of the miniatures to convert for the original Battalion but I can do that 'as and when' now... this exercise ticks two boxes: 1. I have a finished detachment and 2. I am free to continue with the last of the infantry platoons.

The end is in sight...
