So my Crimson Fists army was my attempt to improve my painting, motivate myself to paint up a full army, and do an army with all the extras like shoulder pads and resin bases. I have always been a table top quality painter. I do get lucky and get some local best painted at rtts but the competition is average. I hate decals and at the last Minneapolis GT that GW ran (yes, way back in the day), I decided my next army would have the casted shoulders and FW doors on vehicles. Already these are better than my other 3 armies.

First up and done is tactical squad #1. I need to work on my shading. I came from the drybrushing era and it is a hard habit to tone down.
Note: I am new to picture taking and this will also be a wip taking photos. Hopefully this will improve along with my painting.







Working on Pedro Kantor next and a landspeeder hopefully by the end of the week.

Hey all. It's been a while since I have updated this. I'm not going to repost my pictures, but here is an easy link to my blog WIP update. I have some quick shots of finished units and some pictures of of ther WIP for my Crimson Fists.

Here are some quick shots of my speeders. They are a little dark due to these pictures being taken at night.

I'm liking the blue, how is he rest of the army coming along?

Nice painting! There are to few CF blogs out there! After seeing the 2nd ed rulebook cover for the first time (when I was a young pup) Crimsons Fists have always been my 2nd favourite SM chapter (1st of course being Space Wolves).
