Thank you all for your comments!

Astra Milliwhatnow?

I know, right? Was that a trademark thing that lead to the shift in terminology? Guard, Astra Militarum, whatever they're called - they're still poor bloody footsloggers in a grim dark future or eternal war...

Everything is moving to fully trademarked (hence the renaming of the pixies etc...).

Looking good.  They are my favourite imperial guard army and have been building mine for a few years now

Hi Tim I forgot to ask how much smaller is the artizan miniature than the old Tallarn guard?

I'd say they're of similar height. The figure he's standing next to in the picture is actually a GW imperial guard officer figure that I converted.

Great stuff, many years ago I also had a Tallarnban ;) force (Much like alot of commenting here it seems).

A week before GW had a surprise limited splash release of Tallarn Roughriders I went and sold the lot which annoyed me as the Tallarn Rough Riders are rather tasty and if knew they were on the way I would never had sold, still could have been worse I guess hehe.

The vostroyans I have are lot bigger than him I think?

Yeah it was a Steel Legion officer



I got it off eBay and someone had tried to do a head-swap that didn't work, so I added a head scarf and called him a Tallarn Commissar!

Finally back to working on the Tallarn. Finished up a few snipers.



The figures are Cadian snipers that I converted.
