I made myself a Christmas Gift this year. I bought a complete 1500 pts
GK army from Simon Hutchinson. The models are really well painted and sealed with a gloss then matt varnish. Simon even attached them to the bases in a unique way...
Quote: “2 Steel pins are inserted to the feet of every figure and pinned to the bases. They are not glued to the bases however. This is done on purpose as it allows you to remove the figures from the bases they come supplied with and mount them on others.
I like my figures to be based so they match my gaming table but I understand that not everyone's gaming table is the same. So you want snow themed bases or Industrial pipes for bases, its no problem. Just pop the figures off the ones they are currently on and pin them to the ones you want. They are totally usable as they are and wont accidentally fall off their bases.”
I loved that feature! I am really strict when it comes to basing, for me it is the visual bon of an army. The army arrived on Christmas eve. Over the last week I rebased them, added some decals and repainted the force weapons. Call me happy!
The right
GK is exactly as it came from Simon, the left one is rebased to fit my favourite table better, I also added the decal to the tabard, drilled the always important holes in the Bolters and repainted the lightning effect of the blade.
Same for the Terminator
Best of it all, Simon’s painting really fits to my older Grey Knight Kill Team! Only the
GK with the Psycannon is painted by him. Works, eh?
So here is the first finished squad, rebased, repainted blades, decal attached and gun holes drilled.
