And here he comes: my beloved Legion Vindicator. It’s the first of two models I purchased and quite honestly, I love this vehicle. A lot. One reason of course it the model itself: somehow the Legion Vindicator looks much more brutal than the GW equivalent. The other reason is the Paint scheme FW came up with in the Horus Heresy books: large areas of black combined with these astrological patterns and the royal Word Bearers decal sheet.
I used both etched brass and the FW decals on the Vindicator model.
However the white scribblings are still painted with a fine brush.
Vindicator number one reporting for duty.
Like my Medusa artillery tank, I panted the front plates in black.
After transfering the decals and setting them in place I applied a coat of Vallejo Matte Varnish on the whole model.
And one last picture because I just like the tank.
