THIS IS A TEST

 Back when I started my Night Hawk chapter, I painted up a squad of veterans (1 st Company) which got photographed for the White Dwarf article that featured my army, this was back before I had different symbols for my squads, here's what they looked like

You may notice some of the models I showed recently in my assault squad, as all the models here are no longer together or veterans. To mark them as veterans I painted the helms with a feathered pattern. Fast forward a couple of years, and a friend wrote some background and named the 1 st Company the Wing Knights, loved the name, and wanted to change the look to match the name, I've finally come up with a look I like.

The head comes from a Grey Knights, the shoulder pad is my own design, which I've also incorporated in a chest symbol on the harness. I think I still want to have MK VI beakies in the units as well, but it's a start.

I have actually finished another assault squad for my 5 th Company as well, these first 3 are a sergeant model, a plastic combination, and a MK VI Space Wolf Blood Claw.

The next 4 are all Rogue Trader models

The last 3 of the squad are metal Blood Company models and some of the arms actually came from the plastic blood company box as well

I did remember to take a squad picture as well

Many years ago when I worked at GW, my staff made a comment that if I ever ran out of Marine models to make up, they'd watch Satan skate to work, well apparently hell must have frozen over as I've had to resort to sculpting up models that I'd used for parts as you can see below

Yes I'm going to have order in more bits, as sections of the bits box is now completely empty, no bodies, no legs and no helmeted heads left, never thought I'd get to this point ! LOL

This will be my last entry for my challenge, don't worry I will still be following all your blogs to see if you post up entries over the next couple of weeks. That's all for today, so until next time, stay safe, and have fun !

Cheers Dave
