Syn’s Cadian Special Operations Platoon

[system-syn]

@ChrisMurray: Thanks, and I like your priority there. First the beer, then the models

@Rhaivaen: I totally agree, the Ratlings really are awesome little models. I'm not sue if I'll use them very much but I just love the look of them so I had to pick up a set. And I'm afraid it's not Marbo.

The mystery character is now fully built, 10 points to whoever can guess which character he is meant to be!


And I painted the Las Gun Veteran. Since he doesn't have squad yet he's just standing in as a Bodyguard in my Command Squad.


All C&C welcome.

[ChrisMurray]

I don't know the IG well enough to guess at the character, what I can say about him is that he is very well modeled. There is lots of little details that I like. He also seems to be packing a lot of explosives.

Like the others the vet\temp-bodyguard is well painted, I'm especially drawn to the granades on his belt. They are well painted and add a nice bit of character.

[macloud]

Would that be a vey nicely converted Marbo[sp]?

[Vex]

Marbo is too obvious.
Sergeant Bastonne.

[ChrisMurray]

And I'm afraid it's not Marbo.

It's definitely isn't Marbo

[system-syn]

Yup, Chrismurray is right, it's not Marbo, but it's not Bastonne either. I'll get him painted tomorrow, that'll make it much clearer.

I like the overall look of your Vets, and the Command Squad is very nice. The Heavy Bolter on the HellRhino irks me though, and I really think you need to do something about it, as it looks too tacked-on, especially considering the quality of the Guardsmen.

On another note, the Commisar is actually my favourite bit, he's really a great model.

[Vex]

Colonel `Iron Hand' Straken?

[Rhaivaen]

He's got no bionics though.. :P

[system-syn]

Nope, it’s not Straken, hopefully this'll help-


And a little hint, I never said he was an Imperial Guard character

@ unwanted: I see what you mean about the Bolter, I'm working on improving the Hellhound gradually. I added some external gear and I will be adding more, I attached a view port today and I'll be replacing the Heavy Bolter too.

I also did some more work on the Veterans, I painted the Commander and I built some guys with flamers-

The Commander.


The flamers.


All C&C welcome.

[Rhaivaen]

A marines character? I don't own any of those so can't comment

or perhaps a Grey Knight Inquisitor?

[ChrisMurray]

Hmm, reminds me of segal/van damme or maybe even topper Harley. But thats just me. Anyway great painting.

[Vex]

Then he's not part of the Cadian Special Operations Platoon because Cadia is all Imperial Guard.
It's the Emperor.

[Nals]

Its John Rambo

[Petay1985]

nice progress so far fella, i'd be interested to see some photos taken with a neutral background. your green stuff work is nicely done and the commissar is particularly impressive, simply yet very effective. looking forward to seeing more.

[muggs]

vindicare?

great looking vets

[Rhaivaen]

I don't rate assassins as characters, so that would have put me off of the right logic

[S_A_T_S]

I'm also gonna say Vindicaire.

Cool plog, by the way

[system-syn]

ChrisMurray your getting warmer, but Nals is the closest. Perhaps this will help-

[ChaplainOrion]

Is that an Eversor Assassin?
