Imperial Guard Vraks Hellhound

As the title suggests, this is a slight departure from my main army but don't fear - the Relictors will receive reinforcements to rival Porn-Star-Jedi's Ultramarines in due course. These are a side project to help keep me stimulated etc, away from the Relictor Grey everything.

I have purchased a LOT of FW Death Korps of Kreig but I also love the 'not so new now' Plastic Cadian Shock Troops - so I decided I would have some normal guard to play alongside my DKK on Vraks simulating the remenants of still Loyal Vraks PDF troops and equipment now incorporated into the DKK Armies. I can either use Codex rules for these elements or use the DKK Imperial Armour datasets for 'counts as' DKK. But before I worry about all the rules, I have about 500 troopers, 15 Leman Russ MBT, Macharius Vanquisher, FW Stormsword, Legio Astorum Reaver and Warhound to paint...
Here is the Hellhound, done as an experiment into resin models - I had never used Resin before so the whole cleaning, filing, constructing this Resin/Plastic hybrid was as much a lesson as it was the start of something else big.

The main colours are from 2 car spray cans with masking tape in between coats to produce the camouflage pattern. The Cadians will be Graveyard Earth/Scab Red and the DKK mainly Scab Red so this will fit in nicely. Detail work and highlights are Citadel colours. The tracks were added after painting for convenience.
