Hello,

I am going to start a small Elysian "Force" To add to my IG Army

It will consist of 20 or 30 Stands of Drop Troops (1 out of 10 will be command stand)

Some 50 or so Sentinels and maybe some tanks converted for grav dropping.

Pictures to come for test units!

Meanwhile re-linking two old pics of sentinels to show basic colour scheme (may be more on gray this time though)






PS. Seeing as I'm not a gamer this unit will not need to be playable thus dnt ask about how i plan to work my way round the rules :D

Interesting concepts so far and cannot wait to see the work progress.

I also rarely play but really enjoy painting my army and converting vehicles that really have no rules.

I always tell my son that I build my mini army so I am not tempted to try to build a real army..

Nice work! But why are you painting their faces blue (noticed MoK did the same)? A I missing something?

...smurfs...;-)

I just wanted them to have visors and not flesh; i figured the little blob of a nose wouldn't make any difference; that and it looks cool!
