This is my Imperial Guard force which I have been building over the last six months. ?These are the core units which I take in 90% of cases and build up with extra Supporting Formations.
I had to reduce the size/quality to fit the requisite size of attachments.

Here are a few of my collection. ?I've been painting the Silver Skulls Chapter for a few years now, but this is the first time that anyone has seen my efforts.
I've got a couple of Battle Companies painted complete with Rhinos, some extra detachments and a few dozen vehicles.
They are a Codex chapter, following the same organisational doctrines and liveries as the Ultramarines. ?The one small departure from this is the vehicles - although the sides of each vehicle are painted in the dark silver of the Silver Skulls, the rest of each vehicle is a dark green to better blend in with the surroundings on the temperate planet that they have been campaigning on.
Lets start with a small detachment of Whirlwinds and Vindicators:

Very nice, thanks VC. I will treat each of your pictures as a seperate entry, except the Devastators and the Command stand, which I assume are a part of the First Company. Let me know if this is not right.
Thanks.

I like it, the companies in my Chapter are based on the same kinda organisation, 12 Rhinos, 2 Command and 20 Troops. Except that mine ain't painted, I don't have kinda attached vehicles and its is a full chapters worth!
Nice work Charles anyway.
Cheers
Chris

I've done three close-ups of the Battle Company - the wide shot of the whole formation doesn't really show them off
Here's the Captain:

The two assault squads - painted with Rhinos for an earlier version of the rules. You can't see the unit designation badges, but each marine has the assault squad symbol painted on the back of his jump pack.
