97. A Fiery Red-Head. Salamanders part 3.

So more Salamanders to break up the time between the lack of sculpting and painting.

Part of this Space Marine project involves recycling my old Space Marine models.
They; like a lot of my projects several years ago, did not receive the care and attention to detail they deserve when I first built them.
So like my other projects, it is time to get these up to scratch.

So on that note here is the start of the new squad with their Librarian.

The eagle eyed of you may have spotted the main recycled marine in the squad...
Here he is in his previous iteration.

Swapped out the hammer for a chainsword to keep the number of hammers down slightly.

I always like having a Space Marine captain (even if I don't use them), so after re-purposing the previous captain I decided to make a new one, by re -using another old model.

This guy is made from my very first kit-bahsed captain from the Phoenix Warrior days.
I've added some choice bits to make him decorated enough to be a captain, hence the weaponry... he'll never be use din a actual game so it doesn't really matter :P.

inb4 the questions; the helmet is made using a Sternguard helmet and a crest form the new AOS Fyreslayers.

More marines to come soon!
I think I've decided on a scheme for my Imperial Knight too, so that's good

Until then, comment, constructive criticism, general chatter all welcome :3

Peace!

96. Unto the anvil! A Prophecy. Salamanders part 2.

More stalling on painting. Shock!

But there are more Salamanders.

This is my Librarian.
As my Salamanders are probably going to be 3rd company, I thought I'd base it on Dakir from the Tomb of Fire trilogy by Nick Kyme.

Just needs a little bit of green stuff on the pistol arm to match the sword arm, and for a bit of fire in the center of the chest plate.
Also, it needs some form of scenic base, otherwise the sword arm will drag along whatever table it'll be on.... goddamn long sword :P

More later!
