Some Painted Models

So far I've painted a whole unit of Fire Warriors, the better part of a Devilfish, a single Kroot test model. I'm working on a Crisis Suit, trying to get an idea of what I want the army as a whole to look like. Oh, and I roughly base coated some Stealth Suits...keep forgetting about those. I keep forgetting to do the sept markings on the Fire Warriors too...note to self.

I forgot to take pictures of the Devilfish. Now that I think about it, I might just finish that one up after this post.

Anyway, I really love my Fire Warriors. I feel like, if I did it all over, I could do a much better (read: smoother) job, but I'll have a chance when I get a few more. I also didn't even know they had shin guards until I saw OSH's; I use the pictures from the book to sort of see what they're "supposed" to look like and the shins there are very similar to the under-suit, but live and learn.

This is the only Kroot model I've finished. I like to do one complete model, before moving on to the rest of the unit. It gives me a lot more direction when I'm pulling the assembly line on the other, in this case, eleven. I'm about as happy with him as I am with my Fire Warriors. I'm very much looking forward to seeing both completed units on the table.

You might notice the solid band on the bottom....hair spike? in the second and third picture. I was going to try something similar to the fluffy Kroot in the Codex, but changed my mind. I need to black it out or something and fix it. The rest won't have that.

Ahh, togetherness:
