Continuing the streak, I’ve completed a unit of retro-style Imperial Guard:
I think I’ve finally worked out a scheme for Imperial Guardsmen that’s quick and easy to paint - sometimes old tricks are the best tricks!
Despite the OG guardsmen having bare steel lasguns and helmets, I’ve gone with no metals for now, partly as a time-saving measure and partly because the black helmets look great against the Averland Sunset I’ve used for the unit markings.
I figure I can come back and pick out metal details on sergeants or something if I think they need it. Old school officer models originally had gold details and things, so I might need to go back and do some other metals so they don’t look too out of place.
Anyway, ten off the pile!
