I have an obsession with all sorts of HQ and special units, so without even thinking about a list I would build to, I built up and painted Pedro with his Command Squad.





(I am in the process of painting the banner, I'm terrible at freehand)


I painted these guys by priming white, then I airbrushed a very watered down P3 Exile Blue, which is like Gw Midnight Blue. I really like the effect that this made, on the raised surfaces and edges the white shows through so it creates some natural highlights.

I also got ahold of a grey knights box, and theres a bunch of really cool bits. (Except the stormbolters, I hate those with a passion) This box is excellent for librarian conversions. (I should have used a differnt head, because its the same one as the one I used for Pedro.


Alright, I got some advice from some other places and I redrafted my list.

HQ:
Pedro Cantor
Librarian

Troops:
Tactical Squad: Melta, Multi-melta
Rhino
Scout Squad:10 man, camo cloaks, missile

Elites:
Terminator Assault Squad: 6 man/ TH/SS
Sternguard:10 man, powerweapon, 4 combi-meltas(Pedro will go with them)
Drop-pod
Sterguard:5 man, 2 combi-flamers (Librarian will be with them)
Razorback: HB

Heavy Support:
Thunderfire Cannon
LandRaider Crusader: MultiMelta

Total: 1750

I figured I could drop the command squad, even though I like how they turned out. (they'll just be a showcase squad)

This is my second go, so if anyone has some advice on how I can tweek it some more that would be great.
More to come and C&C always welcome.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/367029/2770185.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/367029/2770185.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/367029/2770394.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/367029/2770394.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/367029/2771358.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/367029/2771358.page GMT



Sternguard squad 2 is next up, then probably the Terminator squad. Other then that I am not sure what I'm gonna do.

I am still unsure if I should do a scout squad, or add another tactical.

Plus has anyone had any luck with using a Teleport Homer with their scouts instead of a Landraider?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/367029/2773574.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/367029/2773574.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/367029/2773593.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/367029/2773593.page GMT

School is about to end, so I'm not sure If I'll have anything else painted in the next couple of weeks.

I am debating getting scouts next to paint, I'll probably do some camo, with some grass and foliage on their backs. But I'm not sure if they are a good choice in my list.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/367029/2776690.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/367029/2776690.page GMT
Good even painting and awesome filing work to remove the BA symbols.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/367029/2778616.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/367029/2778616.page GMT GK box, just because there are a lot of cool bits. One of the things I wanted to do is convert the psilencer (I think thats what it is, the 3 barrelled one) into a multi-melta. Heres what I came up with. I finished the melta marine as well to go with the tactical squad. For the rest of the squad, I think I'll use AOBR marines.
