Wonderful scatter stuff and scenery.
I am a bit of a sucker for such things but do know a good finish when I see one.
 :-* :-*

As for having a figure with your face sculpted by Kev Adams.... :o :o
Lucky git!
 >:D ;)

@Ultravanillasmurf - that's good to know. It's a nice kit.

@Mason - thanks! These could nestle very nicely alongside your own terrain I think. Having Kev sculpt my face was a brilliant opportunity - a charity thing he's run at Bring Out Your Lead the last few years.

Lovely stuff Axiom, thanks for the kind words too  :-*

Those Ramshackle crates look great, the way you're building up the scatter terrain you'll have to do the siege of Hellsreach soon!

I agree.
I like Chris' stuff and these look up to scratch, certainly.
I must really find the time to get back to it take the scenery into the future properly at some point......

@Manic Miner - does that mean I need to make a rock-carrying ogryn to represent Obelisk? ;)

Some more Imperial Guard recruits are newly finished for Shadow War: Armageddon.



These are all converted using classic Rogue Trader and Confrontation torsos, heads from various sources, and more modern resin arms.



Just 2 more to finish the Kill Team!

More words and pics over at my blog.

Thanks all! I've really enjoyed assembling these and doing a relatively quick and simple paint job. They're gritty and efficient - just like the squad!

That's "quick and simple"!?  Now you're just teasing us.  They look ace.

@Genghis - honestly, I'm not teasing! Apart from the flesh there are no highlights - it's all washes over a base colour. The armour is just black with the edges dry brushed.
