Very nice work! I agree they do look very "Guard" enough! Good job!
Just remember "If the Enemy is in range, so are YOU!

Great job, I really enjoy this set!

May I ask what you'll use as sentinel and Leman Russ? Clear Horizon has a sweet sentinel and Proxie models have a very 'Russ-y' tank, that is affordable.

Hey, Ock!

I am thinking of the Novan Regular MBT for the Leman Russ and a DIMOG Walker from Khurasan for the Sentinels.

Very Guard, and very nicely painted: they really pop.

The Novan tank was spot on, hadn't seen it before. I'm not a fan of the DIMOG Walker, though - at least not in the role as a sentinel.

Have you seen this?

Yes, the Clear Horizon walker is perfect for that role, I know. I simply haven't found out yet, if it can be purchased at the moment. Seems they sent stuff to their backers first and wait for a re-stock.

Yes! Lovely stuff - I’m increasingly moving to trying more and more to capture a ‘Rogue Trader’ vibe in my 15mm too. You’ve done a great job here. I really like GZGs NSL range - the fact that there’s two troop types with consistent weapons is a real plus.

Have you shown off your genestealer cult on LAF yet?

Proxie models makes a plastic 15mm Leman Russ stand-in, also.  He calls it the Trencher.  I like the design better than Vanguard's tank, but YMMV.

The pic on his site is bad, but here are some better shots of mine.  I chose not to add the side sponsons, but they are included in the kit.

Thanks a lot, Rory! No, I haven't shown them yet, will do in the days to come. :)
