A little while ago, I did a test mini for a Carcharodon force I wanted to make. I had a blast painting him, and decided that I would go with Carcharodons as my Art Scale army, not Ultramarines. I recideved the Badab War books from Forge World for Yule, which further cemented my choice.
With this choice made, I created the final 9 members of a Tactical Squad, and began to think about where I wanted to go with this project. For now, here is the nearly finished Tactical Squad.
I’m quite proud of how they look, and I am very happy with the new torsos I have been casting. I particularly like the Sergeants, with his dynamic pose and sense of movement. All I have left to do before painting is pick up some more shoulder pads, and fill a few more gaps.
Something else I would like to share is an Art Scale Rainbow Warrior, who I am creating for Fabalah, creator of the Rainbow Warrior wallpaper. As you can see, I am going with the Asgardian theme with the wings on the helm. I still have a little work to do on him, like adding a loincloth of sorts, similar to Sif from Thor. When I get around to painting him, I will using quite a bit of silver and gold, to make him look regal.
Let me know what you think in the comments! Hopefully I can start assembling a second Tactical Squad, as I already have the legs I need, so keep an eye out for that. Don’t forget to like my Facebook page, so you can see new posts as soon as they are up.
Cheers.
