TANK BUSTERS

 Work is slowly progressing on the Monk, I've got the brain painted and the bulk of the body sculpted (not my best work but it will do) so with less than two weeks to the deadline, I really need to get a move on. In the mean time, I've finished another unit of Night Hawks, these are devastators from the fifth company, one of the things I wanted to have was a tank busting squad, just in case of facing vehicle heavy armies ( less likely to happen as I mostly game solo at home, but when I made them it was a different story ! LOL)


These are metal miniatures, and are a mix, of Rogue Trader models and second edition marines to keep adding to the variation of the army, I've also added more modern backpacks to keep the idea of using what they can salvage. I've noticed GW have restocked devastator squads, and noticed they have the extra armor on the leg greaves like the second edition ones, so will have to add them to this years wish list. Until next time, stay safe, and have fun !

Cheers Dave

    1. Thank you Mr. Martin, several times in the past, I thought about getting rid of the older models, so glad I didn't and held onto them now, as they are adding a lot of character to the units.
