http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/69.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net I was wondering if anyone here played or just modelled Valhallans that have any good tips for modelling dramatic bases and the such? Also, if anyone has any tips for painting the Valhallans 93rd color, that would be much appreciated, and I am looking for the tutorial on making the barricades from the 4th ed.
Valhallan 93rd

Those are painted with reaper master series paints, I can tell by the hues, they match mine very closely.

Basically it's a chaos black primer, tan overlay on the jacket and hat areas. run a brown wash over it, lightly. Any brown wash or ogryn flesh wash will do. cuffs and pants are a dark jungle green with an olive green highlight.

Pouches are best painted a solid leather looking brown then washed with badab black. Boots are black with 2 highlights of increasingly lighter grey.

The blanket/slingtings are just the same as the boots. also, the same with the metal on the weapons, but with less of a grey highlight and more black on the gun parts.

Under the command of the stern task master Kubrik Chenkov, the valhallan 18th 'Tundra Wolves" wipe out the Vanguard of Hive fleet Jormungandr at Goyan Valley. The swarms of tyranids are crushed under the metal treads of Chenkov's armoured brigades and the Thundering boots of over a million Guardsmen, driven onto the ravenous horde by ruthless commissars

I have read Ice World, and most of ciaphus cain

If anyone has any more fluffs or books about Valhallans, let me know, also, if you know of the white dwarf where they talk of the Valhallans for the first time, tell me what number.

Also, I would like to see pics of Russian snipers during WW2 stalingrad, because I noticed no Vostroyan has a sniper rifle.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254344/944878.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254344/944878.page GMT

For the snipers/ratlings with my army I substitute in widow makers from Warmachine. They fit perfectly and look pretty damn good if I do say so myself.

Fluff wise, other than WD (i don't know what issue), GW released an "Imperial Guard Model collectors guide" that shows bits and pieces of all the different homeworlds and such.
