501st Cadian Battle Tank Bataillon

Recommended Posts

So, after my few space marines, here are some of my imperial guards minis (don't call them astra militarum, you don't really get well after some bullets in your forehead ...).

 

It's based on a true french battle tank bataillon (501e RCC, one of the few foreign regiment which received the PUC).

 

As you can see, they are heavily mechanised and for now are fighting in a desertic environment. I'm far from showing you everything (especially infantry) cause it's a pain to take photos of such amount of minis. I'm also under the process of repainting some Leman Russes and old cadian metal sentinels.

Pretty stellar work, though it's all a bit monotone.  Military utilitarianism or no, I think if you worked that design into more of the vehicles, it'd been a touch more eye catching.  

 

All the same, there's really no arguing with the quality of the painting here.  Bravo. :smile.:

Wow amazing. And so much to like: tanks, grunts and the Inquisition.

 

Lovely bashed about vehicles you have there. They look as though they've had a rough campaign.

 

All great stuff.

 

Cheers

Errmaahgerd! That's a great collection of IG mate, your painting is top notch, I can't say a bad word about them :tu:

But :) if you back your camera away from the individual minis it will be able to focus better (the minis deserve it. )

Hi folks,

 

I'm in the process of rebasing all the mighty Imperial Guard Infantry in order to match with my space marines detachment.

You can see them here : http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/305981-astronomican-ghosts-a-loyal-space-marine-chapter/

Takes a lot of time but it's worth it I hope.

A bad person whom is painting his army to a great standard, mind you. :smile.:

 

By the way, how are you painting the cloth?  It's especially good.

Some armoured news. I didn't go through the pigment process so that's why you may have the feeling of too much shiny pics.
