they're my "grenade launchers", made out of a couple of LRBT stubbers.

This is my 2nd favorite. I like how it looks like he's running. And this was taken before I cut the Imperial eagle off his helmet.

The Tau Cadre's design is based off of Zero from Mega Man X. The fire team leader's sword is a beam saber like Zero's Z Saber.

nice work! My only nitpick is that dreads don't have TL AC's- the arm doesn't look meaty (or is it metaly) enough to hold such a weapon.

@Shrike
I based it off of some of the HH CCG art work, the arms depicted there are pretty scrawny. Here's a wip pic, you can't see it in either pic, but I "wired" up both arms to "beef" them up.



I'm aware of the fallacy of having twin linked auto-cannons, this too is based on someones design sketches. I figured since I used two smaller ones from a landspeeder it wouldn't really matter.

Soon, (ie: today) I'm going to be making a random guy based of of Hoss Delgado.

He will be having a chainsaw for a hand, and guns strapped to him.

Should I make him on a sm, or chop up an IG and use him instead?

Yes he has Death Metal corpsepaint, its the army's theme. Also the reason for his long hair
These are old pics by the way, these days he is holding the dead goat from the giant sprue in his left hand.

And so you should be. That a nice conversion.

The pre-heresy dread froma bit further up is also pretty neat, but I thought that assault cannon were post heresy weapons, hence why Chaos termies don't get 'em... Nice model though.

Try spending 10 hours and not even be half finishedXD But I like big projects, so even though it takes alot of time I enjoy it.
