My last offering from my scheduled posts whilst I was away, but shunted for Warlord#10 progress posts, and the last of my 2022 #HobbyBingo tasks completing the challenge. These are Imperial Guard (Astra Militarum) Cadian Shock Troops with the Genestealer Cult upgrade sprue bits, mostly heads and a few ceremonial knives.
The Heavy Weapons Team have some 3D party autoguns to add to the vibe of mixed up reserve cult forces and was going to be a whole squad of ten autoguns but they took ages to convert and the rules for Brood Brothers will probably not allow the alternative, just Neophytes that can. I will just play as Lasgun if needed!
The first four troopers, the Sergeant and two have Cult Upgrade heads and the fourth has a helmeted head with sunglasses as the genestealer strain makes the eyes sensitive.
You see the upgrades I added on the reverse, and the Cult Icon daubed on the shoulder pads. I used the spare empty helmets on the Heavy Weapon sprues so the unhelmeted have the correct rig.
So, as much as I am slowly growing the Cult, the Brood Brother contingent is quite large with some extreme heavy support in form of the ancient Armorcast resin Baneblade I had commissioned in 2020 and a Squad of Rogue Trader Guardsmen from 2019 that can be found (Here). And the original Vraks Planetary Defence Force troops from 2009, converted to Brood Brothers in 2018 which match the latest recruits very well which I was pleased about.
The next four also use the Cult upgrade sprues and an icon on the Vox set.
My completed #HobbyBingo
Cheers, Siph (10pts)
Congrats on the Bingo completion. That's a lot of great projects!
