One Troops Choice...Complete!

Wow, it's been a while. If anybody cares, the delay was caused by swine flu, a new job at Rockstar and snapping the pin vice bit I need to make Yukoni lasguns. Anyways, I am still working, and here's proof: pictures of Red Platoon, finally complete. That means I know have almost half of my infantry done, and Green Platoon is almost completely built, even if I am stalled on them until I get to a Canadian Tire and replace that bit.

Red Platoon Heavy Bolter Support Squad:

Their shoulderpads are numbered by gun, rather than by squad. Here's a detail on the loader for No. 2 Gun, complete with product placement for my wife's place of employment.

Here's the completed Command Squad for Red Platoon, a detail of the piper. Best tartan I've done yet. And yes, I know, that's not saying much.

And, finally, the only mostly-built members of Green/C, the last I did before the snapping of aforementioned bit.

I'll get some pictures of the full platoon for the next update.

  1. You work for Rockstar now? And you had the Swine Flu? I've just been procrastinating and watching Rome. Astro tickets go on sale Dec. 1st and Astro Van along with some ConQuest are official North American Warhammer 40K qualifiers...

  2. I do, for about a week now. I did, though I didn't realize that's what it was until after I'd recovered.

    What's the ConQuest? I don't think I've heard of it before? You going to Mini-Astro?

  3. I love your army, Mr. Wilson. Different and full of character. I stumbled across the link to here while I was rummaging through Molotov's INQ28 blog, and I think I'll be back often as I'm in the very early stages of putting together my own Imperial Guard army.

  4. Thank you! I'll try to keep the updates coming, and I look forwards to seeing your Guard. :) Molotov is a friend, and it's good to know his stuff is getting attention.

    ..And I love the piper!

  6. Thank you very, kind sir! I'm really, really happy with how the tartan on the piper turned out. It's given me the confidence to try more detailed tartan than I've done in the past.

  7. I may go to Mini-Astro. I'm supposed to be studying. Mostly I just procrastinate and feel sorry for myself. I'm trying not to look past my exam on the 5th.

  8. If I do go to Mini-Astro, I'll be bringing the Iron Hands, or maybe the kilted Marines. I very much doubt the Yukoni will be up to 1500 points in less than two months.

    We should get a game in some weekend soon. I've played one or two with James, but I've been either sick or busy the past few weeks.
