Here's the first four members of an eight-man patrol I've been working on. They're made out of Catachan and Cadian plastic bits, with the new metal IG heads. As they're a jungle patrol I've painted them in UK Tropical DPM, just for fun. The scout on the right is armed with a Tau Pulse Carbine. The next guy along is the patrol commander, posed so he's talking to the signaller behind him. The last in line is the patrol marksman.
More soon!
I really like these guys. The new heads look great, and your camo is superb. I wish I could do that.
ReplyDeleteMy own guardsmen are shaping up to look considerably less cool.
Thanks mate - the camo took a while to get right, and then the British Army go and announce the first camo change in 40 years, just as I master painting it!
ReplyDeleteLooking fantastic they are col. I'm glad those longer combat trousers look as good as i thought they would... they look really unique!
ReplyDeleteHah! The worst sort of luck, Colonel. Still, they've got about 38,000 years to go back to that style in order for your patrol team to still look satisfactory in their uniforms. ;)
ReplyDeleteI reckon the Imperium's STC systems have pretty much every camo pattern ever used, so its not unrealistic that a production line somewhere would have churned out a few rolls of the stuff!
ReplyDeleteI agree
