IG army would be such fun to model and paint IMO...all those tanks especially the Forge World stuff. But, I think it would be a real wallet-breaker, more so than anything else. Love that redeemer think you just convinced me to get one to deploy my assault marines and HQ!
@RepublicCustoms yes, I do actually. I haven't played in a few months but I love the game and enjoy getting in a game or two every week. I was taking a break from the hobby but I plan to get back to painting this weekend. Thanks for the kind words
if you thought IG are tough to play in any fashion try going with necrons i tend to get wipped every time i play but of course i dont concern because i just really enjoy playing the game
you should have started with imperial guard, if you have a army with only troops, bout 2k points of guard, you will have so many lasgun shots, nobody can make that much saves, almoste impossibel ^^
Very bad idea - where's your tank busting power, where's your resilience, most importantly where's your leaderships! Guard will get torn to pieces as soon as they get into combat by pretty much anything, lasgun shots are a poor substitute for say a basalisk or lerman russ squadron...
in fairness to Bloodsailadmiralheys, The guard on foot can be really tough. If you stick a commissar in a unit of 50 they are nearly impossible to get rid of. With the commissar getting to re-roll failed moral checks you have to kill them all. they can carry a lot of melta guns. A ludicrous amount in fact. I recently faced a mechanized guard list that had like 15 meltas. However this is the NEW codex, in this video I was talking about the OLD codex. Which IMHO was not competitive in 5th ed
I first do base coat them I use the wash then I sort of feather the color as best I can or wet blend. Sometimes I dry brush. in this case I have not gotten past the wash stage.
the guard are coming out in may, meaning they will be more competetive and great now, with all sorts of new stuff, including a plastic valkyrie kit, awesome stuff.
btw very nice land raider, love the assault marines
i love assault marines. i was thinking about making a renegade warrior band like the one from the ultra marines novel dead sky black sun. like just have fun paint different colours rather than a primary one what do you think shiznaft?
Ive had a IG army, they are a very complex army but once understood a powerful army. Dont underestimate it, its armour is fantastic and they are about to bring out another codex :) I have won many times with IG.
i want to play guard as well they are making a new codex either this month or next month with a plastic valkyrie kit you the one from forgeworld gw making it
I started with base coat chaos black spray primer, I then added tin bits to the end piece. After that I used gold shining gold and burnished gold blending the lighter colors as I moved to the back. then I painted the tips boltgun. After that, I washed the whole thing with Badab Black followed by Devlin Mud. Finally I painted a watered down chaos black across the very front of the flamer and stipled the silver with the watered down chaos black.
you got the broken claw,i would run a tube from where it was broken to somewhere els. i think that would look really cool.

Does the land raider doors come open like that once put to together or is that a conversion?
Japacanadian 2 years ago
If you get it together right it should open normally. sometimes people use too much glue or accidetally get glue down in the mechanism.
Shiznaft1 2 years ago
If you assemble it properly and look at the instrutions at what to glue and not to glue, then I think they should
