Default Imperial guard 2 squads

So i am starting with the imperial guard cadian shock troops. Unfortunately i am acting on a very strict budget (curtsy of segmentum command and the orky raids on the trenches) so i wont start painting any time soon . Sorry i am still figuring out how to put up pic's of myself for the signature

Those are very creative and dynamic posings I'm impressed man. Good job for making a normally static set come alive.

Hey, that's really cool! Before you paint them, have you thought about drilling the grenade launcher and flamer barrels?

to drill them means
to use a small drill bit and make actual barrel holes


and i would like to see that whole scratch built if its not too much trouble

Update guys its easy i want advice on this i used all the flamers/grenade launcher simply because i thought i should so should i detach the arms of 12 arms and 3 flame barrels and give them a lazgun only. So post your vote and give your opinion!!!!! Or else *pulls curtain and reveals Stitch in a transparent bubble*

WOW. snuffles. if those are your first IG, i am really awed by them. you dove right into converting and making them your own. i know IG can seem really unoriginal since realistically [i game on a budget too] the cadians are the only models available easily, but it looks like you went right around that and got onto making them unique. excellent work ! :]

How in the name of the Emperor did you catch Stich?! Kudos for it though, probably lured her in with an inactive member or what not.

They're very, very nicely done men Snuffles. Much better then my first IG ^^

Did you prime them first? Or did you go commando?

They look okay, but the camera seems to like the tank better ^^

did anyone notice he drilled the barrels on the specials. + rep. also, if going commando i highly reccomend pants and primer. also i recomend rust oleum matte varnish that can be bought at home depot for 3.00 bucks usa.

Going commando means getting dressed up with nothing underneath :P So he`s asking if you primed or not

really great work! you chose the poses just right, they look awesome! my only advice is to pay attention to those mold lines down the seams of the casts, as after you paint them, they will be a lot more promenant!

keep up the good work !
