Your my hero.. looks awesome. Can't wait to kick some
Loyalist butt.

Good looking army Gits. Something to be proud of.

Who's the dude that appears to be having a break against the dozer of the left rhino?

That's one of my radio operators... he's just chillin' on a rock back there.

Gitz, given the Dev squad sargent's name sake... I would be worried that he'll be a one-shot wonder.
*Wink*

Sergeant looks great Gits. I like the Red Scorpions helmet on the base, bit of pay back going on there?

@Anpu:


Why yes Gir... very perceptive of you! Actually I was feeling kind of guilty because most of my team mates (on both teams) are salting their bases with bits and pieces of the opposing chapters and I really hadn't done that at all. So I figured it was fitting to put one on the last figure in the army (as well as getting a little payback).

Awesome work amigo, I'm even sold on that purity deal on the dev sergeant.

10's across the board. You got an impressive army there. you could prolly make a small fortune by selling that on ebay lol

Great work as usual Gits'

Ahhh that is exactly what i meant Gits, looks amazing!

Yes, but then I'd have to shoot myself in the head.

@monkeyh & Reiko: Thanks mates! Glad you like them!

heavens no.. why would he sell something he took years of his life to create! unless he's granted Demon prince status and then some?

One thing, the green sensor on his signum is lost to me in all that green of the rest of the model. Blue would make it pop a bit more.

Agreed. When I first glanced at it I thought you simply hadn't painted it.

same here

The whole shebang... Points out to 4450 in 5th Ed. C:SM, that's only counting war gear that is actually modeled onto the figures. A few BA models were pointed out as captains or sergeants.... but this is pretty much it. Scouts and LS Storms still need a little attention, but I think everything stands up pretty well. This is roughly 3 1/2 - 4 years worth of effort. Though in that same time period, I've done and equal amount of orks and as much again in Necrons & Tyranids combined (though not all to this standard).

Note that I haven't included any of the GMS marines here because they've become their own army! But you can figure there's about 25-30 more mantis warriors that I've painted over the years that are my halves of the GMS trades. The razorbacks are here as rhinos due to an unfortunate accident at Solar_lion's place last year that left the turrets smashed to bits. Still have to fix that.



Zoom, vote, then go out & kiss a girl... because life is good!

Oh yeah......... not bad........


..... would've thought you'd have more done by now though?



I kid! I kid! :-) I love seeing a good shot of years of hard work and patience! and love and passion! something for us to aspire to Art by far!

Fantabulous. That's how fabulous they look Thanks for sharing!

Wow, this army is great. Now I know why this thread is King of P&M.

That's fething awesome, I know we ask for whole army shots, but man.. .That's awesome... like words are failing me..

Glad I've been around for the ride!

Lovely army shot, this really shows what dedication to a cause can do. Kudos!

Simply stunning. Exalted!!

Exalted as well..

thou I have to correct you.... this is roughly 20+ years worth of effort!

I am completely wowed by the time, effort, and dedication you have put into this project! also its a very unique army with some awesome fluff, i am very impressed. haha now what are you going to do?

One of those (scout) squads is not like the others

Thanks for the army shot Gits, it looks amazing, there really arent any more words that can describe it...

heres to 3.5-4 more years! (or 20 if Solar_lion is counting!)

Awesome! That's all.

I salute you Gits! Excited to see where you go from here

R

Thank you all for your generous comments!!



Well... there's the boring stuff, like fixing the razorback turrets, finishing the LS Storms, the drop pods and the scouts. That'll happen here and there along the way (probably not until after Adepticon).

I have a couple of GMS marines to do, those are a priority.

My next "real" projects will be terminators and land raiders. Been wanting to do them for a long, long time but other things are always getting in the way. Time to make them a priority.

and the LoTD Gits, dont forget those....

I won't Reiko... thanks for pointing it out though. The first LoTD (prototype) is sitting right next to graven's partially complete GMS marine so I'm not likely to forget either one. They, like my vanguard... are on hold until I know what the new C:SM has in store for them. (whenever that shows up)

Good good, was just worried they werent on the list...

Shame that they have to wait for the new book, but im patient(ish)...
