Repainting my Steel Legion. I'm still waiting on my Astra Militarum Codex to see how I will kit the troops out but here is my Commander.

**Valkyrie**

Nice model but the position of the head ruins it a bit, would look better facing the direction he's holding the pistol.

**Big Mac**

Lol, yeah, cross eyed!

**Invicta**

Yeah, I agree but I couldn't reposition the head without ruining the model. Might try and cut his arm off and re-align.

**Darth Bob**

Other than what was mentioned about the head, the model looks pretty good. I think some touch ups on the coat would make it look better, and the Ork head could use some more depth, but overall he looks pretty solid.

**Invicta**

Bent his arm as much as I could without having to cut it off. How's it look now?

**katfude**

Looks good to me. Not dead on, but I can see a guy on a crazy battlefield with one eye down the barrel but focused to the side, most likely due to an incoming threat.

**Invicta**

Yeah, he's multi-tasking.

**Invicta**

Standard Bearer.

**Invicta**

Some special weapons conversions and a group shot.

**Grimskul**

Looking real nice.

**ghostmaker**

Nice conversions

**Invicta**

Thanks!

I don't really care for the new Taurox model, I haven't seen it in person but from the pictures it just looks like an MRAP to me. I had this APC I used as a Chimera before. First time using an air brush from start to finish. Here is my "Counts As" Taurox with twin-linked autocannons.

**Ruberu**

That is an awesome proxy for the Taurox. It fits really well with Steel Legion.

**Invicta**

Thanks

Steel Legion Rogue Trader Era Commissar. Bullgyrns are next on the list

**Invicta**

Couldn't really find the shotguns I was looking for cheaply and in the quantities I needed. I want to make three veteran squads with shotguns and meltas. I bought some tubing, this is the result. Thoughts?

**Invicta**

Saw this guy while looking at Dave Taylor's Steel Legion army and had to have him. I plan on using him as my Master of Ordnance.

**Insane Smile**

All of it looks great, what was the original model you used for the commander?

Spoiler:

**Brother SRM**

That looks like it came from the Steel Legion officer with the katana-looking sword over his head, Insane Smile.

You've got some really characterful and good looking models here, OP. The Rogue Trader Commissar you converted up is especially cool! The special weapons are also subtle, but good looking conversions that look really natural. Keep up the good work!

**Invicta**

Brother SRM you are correct about the commander conversion. Thanks for the compliments. Hoping to have the bullgryns done soon.

**Squidbot**

Lovely stuff

Really liking your Taurox.

**Invicta**

Finished up a set of Bullgryns, Veteran Sergeant, and an old Warhammer dude I converted to be a 40k Priest. I like the new War Hymns rules, I'm glad they work on Ogryns now too as before the Priest oratory skills could not be used on ogryns and ratlings. My only gripe is that priests can no longer get eviscerators.
