that I understand ash, its the perfect dark color you use is what I cant figure out. what color paint is it?

**Ash 1**

Sorry for tardy response . . .

Try Vallejo 'German camo. Black Brown'; or mix 1 part black and 3 parts burnt umber . . . 'ish

**Ash 1**

Part of an old metal platoon that had a fairly fugly camo; now with new kit.

I think for continuity the SGT should get a maroon beret.

**Ash 1**

Not finished off anything IG for a while, been having a bit of a 20mm sabbatical.
These blokes have been taunting me from the depth of my box of half done things . . .

Pig Iron bods, legs, arms; Anvil heads; IG helmets & CC weapons.

more to follow.

**Rewdan**

How did you make the gun for the guy on the left?

**Seb**

**Ash 1**

@ Rewdan: The shotgun is an original part of the model.

@ Seb: Thanks

Also done with these:

**Commander Beric**

They do some very nice conversion bits, inc a range of poseable bionics in sizes for IG, Marine & Terminator models - very nice.

**ssspectre**

Really, really liking those marines. Especially the rocket launcher dude with a back torso piece in the front. A neat conversion that will surely be ripped off many times!

**edbradders**

That MTP is awesome. It must have taken you ages to do.

**Element206**

Great work, I really like the fatigue scheme on the pants

**Ash 1**

Appart from the leader of the third squad, these are done. . .

**ids1984**

any chance of a run through of the MTP, colours and technique? It's rather good and I wouldn't mind a bash on my snipers.

**Hindenburg**

The scavvy boss fits in perfectly.

**Bonde**

I love ALL the guardsmen and I LOVE the renegades and Heretics. I always wanted to try out those FW conversion kits, but I could never find the time for it. Your paintjob looks fantastic on them.

**rustbucket**

Your renegades are some of the best that I've seen

Look forward to seeing more of your stuff as you post it!!

**Ash 1**

@ Bonde & rustbucket: Thanks guys, much appreciated.

Mmm . . . going to need a clue as to which one gave you the giggles?

**Ash 1**

Replaced the fat-boy's spindly little drill bit with something more in keeping . . .

**lonedrow02**

This is ripped right out of my imagination while i was reading Gaunts Ghosts....
Truly fantastic!
