The 1st Company so far


25% of the 1st Company is now finished. Not sure how much further i want to go with this. Another Sternguard unit is likely as they are always a star performer and maybe a Vaguard unit just to fill the gap of not having a unit of them yet. A Character or 2 will also be added so they will act like a self contained force in any future Apoc games i plan on using them in.

The 3rd unit of terminators are finally done.

Well that's me finally back on the updates, in the next few days ill have a quick run down of my tournament experience with my IG, a few pics of Ceatus Assault Ram, details of some future tourneys i plan on attending and announce a new segment that will run during my clubs Badab War Campaign.

Veterans of the 1st Company

Ive just finished up the another Terminator squad and starting work on a 3rd which will most likely be the last as with the Sternguard gives me 25% of the first company members and for now thats all I wish for. Saying that another Sternguard unit isnt out the question and a Vanguard squad would be kinda cool and then another 5 man Termie unit would give me half the 1st company hmmm.
Most recent finished squad.
The unit that was dropped from my tourney list but painted before i had decided that.
The future squad, just need to wait to the new year to order the shoulder pads from FW.
