Thanks, I thought it was a realitive easy build and paint. I couldn't be that bold and kitbash them like Briancj. I wouldn't be able to have the forsight to see what the final outcome is and it would end up as a terrain peice.

That's okay, SL. You also have way, way more sanity left, than I do.

Not really .. it's a tiny thing. you can see it's over all size profile next to the normal guys. Maybe some of the smaller decals used for troopers.

Thanks, the checkers can drive you insane, you can spend literally hours trying to get them even. I don't have the hands or eyes anymore to do that, so tabletop is the best they are going to get.
The Raptors are for our Alt Adepticon team member, Thou technically my Army, but trying to help him out. ( new job and new baby ect..) I'll probably not do much more that what is in his list.

Pretty amazing how you've whipped these out SL. You know... I don't think I've ever seen anyone do the eagles in a naturalistic form before (on the pack), they really look good that way!

other than that nice work

Glory to the Twelfth! Glory to Angron!

‎"Because we couldn’t be trusted. The Emperor needed a weapon that would never obey its own desires before those of the Imperium. He needed a weapon that would never bite the hand that feeds. The World Eaters were not that weapon. We’ve all drawn blades purely for the sake of shedding blood, and we’ve all felt the exultation of winning a war that never even needed to happen. We are not the tame, reliable pets that the Emperor wanted. The Wolves obey, when we would not. The Wolves can be trusted, when we never could. They have a discipline we lack, because their passions are not aflame with the Butcher’s Nails buzzing in the back of their skulls. The Wolves will always come to heel when called. In that regard, it is a mystery why they name themselves wolves. They are tame, collared by the Emperor, obeying his every whim. But a wolf doesn’t behave that way. Only a dog does. That is why we are the Eaters of Worlds, and the War Hounds no longer."

—Captain Khârn of the World Eaters Legion's 8th Assault Company, from his unpublished treatise The Eighteen Legions

Thanks Calas

Yeah.. but a character should be special. Never mind how an 8 foot super human in hvy armor can do stealthy is a good question as well. In reality all real combat troops would use camo of some kind. There has been a lot of discussion on SM use of camo. GW of old used to have several Chapters clad in Camo for campaigns ( Mantis Warriors and Executioners ) FW has brought back some with the Badab books.

No Lamenters... yet.. I'm working on getting finishing touches on remaining projects and elements of the 2 displays I'm building for Adepticon.
Here is some bunkers and gun Emplacements. went with concrete and steel plating. More like the End of WW2 style.
The whole group.. Only the certer bunker is complete. The rest need washes and weathering.

Gun emplacements; The full set
