Hiya, just painted this model up really quickly as a test model, would like some C&C! Will leave this one at tabletop quality but just want some feedback or ideas on how to do the rest of the squad!

(P.S Bases will most likely be unpainted until I manage to find my snow basing kit!)

Like it allot! Does the gun still need some painting or do you plan to keep it all black? Also the snowglasses on the helmet are a nice touch, made them yourself or are they from some kit?

Nice! As Timonth said, a little color, or eveh a bolt gun metal dry brush on the gun would be great.

Post it again when you add the snow flocking. I'd give the black rocks a grey drybrush before adding the flocking.

Reminds me of rebel fighters on Hoth. Very unique and cool (pun intended) scheme.

Ack, I knew I forgot to do something! Will paint that shotgun up asap.

Also, the snowglasses are from the FW shotgun veterans kit.

Completely unintentional, but now that you mention it....



It's most likely the goggles

Are you gonna give all of your guardsmen the lower legs? If you are something you could do is get some legs from High Elf archers and replace the Elf Legs with IG legs.

I like it, it's probably the first time I've seen someone convert (well, kitbash) a Cadian to look like they fight in the snow vs just giving them winter camo. Keep up the good work
