Augustus, what kit did that Fortes shield come from? That is a brilliant accessory choice. 

To be honest, I have no idea. I bought three of them from a seller on eBay a couple months back. I looked for it on both the GW and the FW site but didn't find anything resembling it. So I guess it's something a third party made? If anyone else knows, please let me know.

I initially thought maybe Scibor, but I didn't see it on his website, then I took a look at Chapterhouse, as it occured to me that I think they used to have Imperial Fist shields, before the lawsuit... not there either. 

 

I did find it on a Russian based re-casting/re-selling webstore.  The prices are too good for purely re-sellers.  Sometimes they have their own sculptors that do stuff for them.  I remember Forgeworld Discount had a really cool sculpt of Ragnar Blackmane that was really good looking before they got shut-down.

@Chaeron: Thanks buddy! I enjoyed writing the batrep, actually. Might do it again. 

@Surreal Cruelty: (cool name, btw :wink:) Yeah I really think it's a third party sculpt. That's a good price, indeed!

 

@kizzdougs: Cheers bro! That is an excellent name for a lascannon toting maniac. ;) He has been inducted the list. :)

If you still allow the naming of your models I'd be honoured to introduce Battle Brother Ventsel Svatopluk, lascannon specialist, IX Devastator Squad, Vth Company, Imperial Fists.

 

Welcome to 9th Devastator Brother, nice to finally have someone else to man the other Lascannon! :laugh.:

No no no, it's okay, I was just making a joke about how Quixus and I were the only people who'd signed up for 9th Squad so far, thus we'd both have to man the Lascannons ourselves. Can't really call ourselves Devastators if no-one's manning the big guns.... :lol:

Great work overall, these really show off that crisp paint style we all know and love.  Weird to say, but the green details really pop on these models; maybe because that's not the typical color used for IF?  In either case, waiting with bated breath to see who gets to drive the Attack Bike!

I got my Christmas gift in the mail today: a Leviathan Dreadnought with all four weapon options. I ordered another storm cannon too, because, you know, I love dual wielding walkers. 

 

I can't overemphasize how excited I am about this kit. So excited, I might just order another one just for the satisfaction of seeing two together, with different weapon options. In any case, it'd be a good distraction from the 26 Imperial Fists infantry models I still have to do to get my 1250 point list ready for the tournament coming up in March. Sigh... oh well. I have two weeks of vacation, starting today, in which I plan on making a big dent in in my IF to/do list.

@The Hydra: Thanks, and thank you. :)

 

@Atia: Cheers, buddy! Attack Bikes are always on bases, no?  I've never seen any without, to be honest...

 

@SanguiniusReborn: OK, the sergeant you'll remain. :) 

 

@MrBear: Or not! We -as in us Chaos fellas- still have a third ETL to win. ;)

 

@VelÇona: Thanks. Yeah the green really pops, even though I only use it on grenades and laurels. :)
