Helghast are indeed from a game. Namely KillZone....and they are depicted as being somewhat futuristic space nazi's of sorts. Not exactly the most lovely of backgrounds, but they do look way cool.

thats the thing with nazis anyway... they are crap... but you have to grant them they look the sharpest while doing atrocities...horrible truth... and i say this with a great grandfather that was in auschwitz...
there is something about a black clad officer...that old gemran WWII helmet and these boots...somehow you feel lower when you see these peeps... the designers knew their stuff when they made the uniforms...

j3r03n - Sorry, didn't see that there  Some good stuff there, and found another company begging for my credits (Scotia Grendel). But vik is right, you should throw some of it up on here, if everybody posts on Dakka it makes it so much easier for us to keep track of everything
vik - look at the troopers in my chaos blog, most of those are cadian torso's on catachan legs with the belt chopped off. Alternatively, just make sure they have plenty of gear on their belts.

to say the least...have you looked into wargames factory stuff for your army as well? in your blog i got you a link of an ebay seller that even sells arms seperatly and even heads...tho i have the german eads now about over a dozen now...
there are cthulu heads as well in these sprues... you could use those for psykers and such like models...would look cool i guess...

I did actually order in arms seperately...and some bits for converting....and some stuff to re-complete my Space Marine terminators....
And...
I am starting to come around about maybe making a P&M blog but I got no clue on where to start, do I repost....start over...wut? I also dont want to abandon my blog so I need to dual post (which is doable even if the Dakka layout is less pretty ^^).

at monkey...:facepalm ... yep gear `em up... that can cover up plenty of misstreatment...i should have thought that myself...
Automatically Appended Next Post: i´d start with a clean plate... you can say for backlog refer to your blog... and then start with current work...maybe get some pics of your current models as an appetizer and then get to the main meal...i boldly started asome totally meaningless threads that i later on clad in a whole new meaning... you can change the name of the thread too ... so there is no real loss whatsover... and if you are bored of the downtrodden thread...start another one.... this is all after all just stored electricity...^^
well you make it pretty with pretty pics of yours^^

Start with a few pics of what you've done already then just continue from there, no need to fill all the gaps, if they want to see the history they'll check your other blog. I'm sure there's plenty of peeps around here who'd enjoy your take on squats. And as vik said, you're just starting the Helghast - ideal

I am? I mean, yes, I am! I'm wise and sensible and mature and a model citizen and I'm writing about tiny robotic fungus men from space that I make in my spare room.

well he is answering monosylabilic...(who difficult word at this late a time^^) so maybe he is working on a new thread already^^
if he is coming around, then due selfpreservation as our combined stare to make him do our biddings could otherwise render him senseless...too bad that any length of time at dakka does the same... so he is in for a straight jacket either way^^

Nice work J3r03n on the squats and all!
Vik and Monkeytroll, I made my Vasily's violators using cadian torsos and ctatchan legs with SM arms. I however did not clip ithe second belt off as that gave me more space to work with for all the gear they have on, and it made them more "Heroic" sized for me.

Well, if I were to make more troops, I would get Pig iron heads and such, But I got the Wargames factory greatcoats, so all set there.
Oh yeah, new chapter of the orks in fiction.

And about monkey being old, as far as forum rumours go, Monkeytroll was around when tin was originally discovered and five minutes later invented the word "ork".

True, the Dust Tactics troops are also good, tall but well, it is only a slight difference.
