OK i did promise to keep this ticking over didn't I
after much pondering (great word, should be used more often i think) i decided on the squad category, not really sure why but it feels better for me
thanks for the input thought guys
anyway, slight modification to the OP, it's now going to be a company command squad as the line squad couldn't get the banner in the picture taken from the codex
comprised of:
commander (with an as yet undecided equipment set)
bannermedicmortar team (with one as casualty being treated by the medic)
2 x bodyguards (one falling backwards, head missing)
master of ordnance (simply because i wanted a model with a vox and all my vets were taken)
commissar (probably
this one to fit the whole charging aesthetic of the scene, with the clunky plas pistol swapped out)
that makes for a nine man squad, i could add in an extra advisor to make an even 10 but to be honest I've already got one to many static models and didnt want the base to be too cluttered
thus far I've finished building the two bodyguards, banner, medic and mortar team casualty, I'm waiting for a cash infusion to get the other parts to finish the squad and get the materials for the base
pictures will follow, tomorrow evening most likely but I'm contemplating holding off for a week until I can get the whole squad in one shot, we'll see how I feel
anyway C&C always welcome and thanks for paying attention
