Greetings Dakkaites!

I've been sorely lacking in motivation to work on my Guard at present, other projects continue to pull my attention in various directions and I need a way to focus my energy and effort into working on my Guard some more, and finish them sooner rather than later! I want this to be a regularly updated Blog that I hope to update at least once a week to show forward progress and help prevent me from falling back into a slump once again. We'll see how that goes I suppose, but here's hoping!

Firstly, I'll link a little bit of what I've got done so far, and will be posting updated (and better!) pictures shortly in this thread to show folks what's been completed, and then, afterward, what remains to be completed.

Firstly, (Most of) my Infantry, along with a choice character mini I'm proud of. (Better pictures of individual squads and characters will be forthcoming, rest assured.)



A Vostroyan Commissar.



Next we move on to the Vehicles.

Chimeras:

Wrath




and Nemisis




Griffon Mortars (Counts-as Wyverns on occasion):

Dauntless




Iron




Leman Russ Duke/Rage (Same hull, different turret & modular hull weapon options).






Leman Russ Dirge (Modular Turret - Demolisher/Punisher/Executioner)




Armored Sentinel Squadron (One of two completed)




What remains to be painted:

One Command Leman Russ Vanquisher (in progress)
One Leman Russ Eradicator
One Leman Russ Executioner
One Modular Leman Russ/Leman Russ Vanquisher
One Chimera
One Devil Dog
One Vendetta
One Valkyrie
One Armored Sentinel
~15 or so infantry
One Heavy Weapon Crew (Heavy Bolter)

In addition to this, I've also got one Knight Gallant to completely assemble and paint, as well as a small ally force of Deathwatch Space Marines + Inquisitor, along with a Culexus Assassin.

I'll be using this blog to post progress as I start, and then complete each project. The first current project I'm finishing up is my Culexis Assassin, which I'll post pictures of later as I finish it (He's sitting at around ~75% complete right now)
Once I finish him off, I'll be picking my Command Vanquisher back up and hopefully finishing it off in short order. Here's where it sat before any work began. Turret is already finished and I've begun work on the Hull already.



Thanks for looking and reading if you made it this far! More updates to come! I'll see you all soon in the mean time.

Till then, take it easy.

Looks great so far!

Thanks for that Waaazag! Sadly my evening spiraled away from me before I could get even half of what I wanted to do, done. But there's hope for the morrow!

Stay tuned and take it easy for now.

Just finished off the first Ally to my forces here: A Culexus Assassin I plan to use semi regularly as a psyker deterrent in future games.

Feedback appreciated as always!









Further progress on the Command Vanquisher to be shared in the near future. Stay tuned!

Take it easy for now.

Hey Red_Thirst,
I love the steampunk look you've got going on there, and while I'm not too fond of the Vostroyans they look excellent in this. I especially love the Dauntless, I'm just a sucker for big artillery.
