Time to start posting again…

Well, it was some time ago since my last posting. I've been super-busy with my new job and I've been trying to find some spare time to get some painting done.
I found these pics laying around, it's part of an Imperial Guard army-idea I had a while back.

Grenadier Veterans armed for close quarter firefights.

The idea was sparked by the release of the new ForgeWorld Cadians in enviromental suits. I wanted a sleeker design so I opted for not using any airtanks or stuff lika that. Although all the Veterans carry backpacks, close combat weapons ans shotguns.

I also started on a Company command squad in the same style, as you can see below.
Company Commander with bolter, I'm not sure if it's a bit too big for him...

 Two Veteran troopers.
I'm not sure what to make of all this yet. I'm not that eager to add them to my usual triator Imperial Guard army - the Strom Renegades. But on the other hand: can I really start a whole new Imperial Guard army?
I was thinking about painting them in colours that suits them for urban and city/Hive warfare. I just don't have the inspiration right now.
There are far more interresting thinks to put my spare time into - like Necromunda, more about that in tomorrows posting.
