Blue might be a touch excessive given the colour of the guys behind, I was considering dark iron with a bronze trim, the studs also being iron.

Each will have a totem of some kind as well, and the non-studded will have a NL icon

The main shield part could also work I imagine?

So, I really like breachers (guess it comes with the Imperial Fists geneseed), and I have a couple units that I'll get to build eventually, but I'm currently working on a siege breaker, that, while technically not a breacher, carries a boarding shield and represents a breacher sergeant that has been promoted. it is still on a WIP phase, and I would really appreciate some feedback or suggestions.

Glad to see some life back in here. What would people recommend as a source of boarding shields? I've noticed FW stopped doing the old Siege Mantlets, and have no desire to spend unnecessary cash on Suzerain/Immortal kits when I only need the shields. I did look at Anvil Industries round shields a couple of years ago, but they don't mesh that well with bolter-armed breachers sadly.

Pop Goes the Monkey (on Shapeways) or ML Shields (on Facebook). The latter are flat but they also have icon sets.

Brother, if by the siege mantlets you refer to the boarding shields, they are still available in FW:

If you are referring to another kit, mind to share some image? I know in the vanguard siege list there was the option for siege mantlets, but I thought they were the boarding shields with another name.

Much obliged frater, looking at both of those now!

I have no excuses. *Walks away muttering 'I have recognised my failing, and will be sure to correct it...'*

 

But on a serious note, much obliged! I thought I'd have heard of it being removed and was rather dismayed by the idea it had been removed.

Well... I didn’t have breacher shields, but I had been gifted some AoS shields (I don’t follow it so I forget their exact designation)

 

As such, here are five White Scars Breachers, of the Brotherhood of the Meteor!

 

I hope you’ll like them...
