Pre-heresy Iron Hands: Plasma Gun Support Squad Update


Hello everyone,

Just a quick update, I have been slaving away at these guys all weekend whilst being busy with family, however, they are now almost complete! 




I have just noticed a few areas that I would like to improve on, so I will be correcting them and adding transfers before showing you the completed unit on my next post. I'm really loving how they are turning out though :).




After this I am planning on going on a transfer spree and getting more of my other units completed. This will include my tactical squads, predators and a land raider.

So I hope you all like my progress and I hope you have all had a good Easter!

Thanks again,

Aveinus Kaane

  2. Looking superb so far, are you keeping them at 5 or going to go for the full ten man unit?

    1. Thanks mate, I did think about having a ten man squad but I think I am going to do another five with volkite calivers for some diversity in the force. A ten man plasma squad would look awesome though, so I may do eventually :)

    1. Thanks mate :). I've just listed them above, it's really easy to acheive. I'm not sure how it would look on bigger plasma coils though
