Thought I'd let you know, I visit TPC daily to pick up tips and find inspiration. You, dante and realgenius do a great job. Thanks!

Grey_death, this blog is wonderful to watch. I'm wating with excitment (and some jealousy) for the next update. I really like the turn you have done with the desert sternguards.

Lookin Good!

I am super pumped that you are still working on these guys! My own Sons of Medusa are coming along well, so more SoM action on dakka is always a plus!

Keep up the awesome work!

Since the SoM are decended from the Iron Hands do they replace limbs with cybernetics as well?

They do not follow the Iron Hands beliefs about cybernetics. I'm anxiously awaiting updates.

Oooo, very nice!

If this is a Badab War log, is there any chance of seeing any other chapters that were involved? Lexicanum states that the sides were like this;

Imperial

Fire Hawks
Marines Errant
Red Scorpions
Minotaurs
Novamarines
Howling Griffons
Star Phantoms
Exorcists
Fire Angels
Space Sharks
Salamanders
Sons of Medusa

Renegade

Astral Claws (Red Corsairs)
Mantis Warriors
Executioners
Lamenters

Well, it's not part of grey_death's blog, but you can see my efforts to build a Mantis Warrior army at the following link. It's nearly all text (miles of it) because I started it when I was away from home, but now that I'm back, it should be a much more standard P&M... working on stuff tonight actually that should show up on the blog tonight or tomorrow.

Its a very nice army, they look really good all together, looking forward to seeing more

I really love your painting style <3 and i think your doing a great job!

NICE can't wait to see the finished army.

WOW thats all I'm going to say is WOW.

Love this blog. How's the army going?

I personally would love to see grey death try a Howling Griffons army....

Oh.... don't even say that unless you're serious. Just too juicy to contemplate.

I am deadly serious...Robin Cruddace's Griffons look nice in WD where they seem to feature fairly regularly, GD could just do them even better...I just built myself up even more there. Grey pwetty please do some Howling Gwiffons!!

Who created them some time back......?

A "Create Your Own Chapter" contest winner.

Fred Reed from the Bristol store did them some time ago they were in a wd

Getting a new model for my Sons of Medusa army finished is always a great feeling.  This is the army that I fell in love with from the start.  It's a hard color scheme, Scorpion Green and White aren't exactly colors that beginners should handle very much let alone build an army on!  Now with the release of Imperial Armor 10, they have a developed background and a brand new allure.

This guy was just one of a few wargear options I had laying around that didn't make it into the final army list.  Now that I'm back at the boys in green, I'm digging through my collection of bits and models looking to build an entire squad around him.  I've been lucky enough to find enough to put just that many models together, and am considering picking up the collectors range Iron Hands Tactical Squad from GW for a ton of great bionic bits and bobs that would do wonders for the look of the army.  Oh, and that special character from IA10 might be in the making if I can come up with the right bits!




All in all I'm extremely happy with how this guy came out, and while I was at it I went ahead and painted the chapter badge on the tactical multi-melta marine I was using as a rough guide.  I still have to go through and do that for most of the rest of the army, but with how easy it went on with these two I don't suspect it would take more than a day to get done, now if I could just find the time!

I have been told he is going to be done by FW, when is the Question. asked by me as they keep messing around and bring out other stuff.

for the IH bits have a look at bits sites like Bits and Kits.

Good to see you back in the Saddle GD, your Sons of Medusa were one of the very first things that really inspired me to try and improve my painting technique. They're really phenomenal.

Look forward to seeing more in the near future.

Dee, I'm very interested in seeing what FW would do with that character. The chances for a crazy awesome model are many. FW is good about characters being well detailed but not overly so, so odds are I would be making a purchase . Would give me a reason to pick up a character conversion set as well, full of nifty bionics.

Git, Thanks for the compliment I always love seeing people take a little from what I've been doing and work it into their own models. If you search for Sons of Medusa in the Dakka Gallery, there is a whole set of SoM from another Dakkanaut with some strikingly similar to my own . Love where your army is going btw, that latest dread had me thinking twice about not going after another dreadnought for my army!

GD,

Nice to see some more SoM coming out. Between an old love of them myself, IA10 and this thread the Sons are going to be my next project.

Which is saying a lot since I've never cared to paint Loyalist marines at all.

I thank you for the great inspiration. My wallet however, is a different story.

Lookin sweet GD!

If they stop messing around and get on with the blasted guy and Transfer sheet instead of bringing out other stuff, the paint job cool as ever GD.

This was one of the first project logs that I started following. It's great to see it still going strong! Awesome work GD.
