Imperial Agents - Grey Knight Strike Squad #2

Hello Readers, thanks for dropping by, a long overdue project from 2018 when I bought a small Grey Knight force from Jeff at Beard Bunker blog, and have been adding to or quietly putting to one side for an eventual force... at the moment its purely a display cabinet army, a palette cleanser when I want something else rather than Titans or Relictor Grey...
This is the second Grey Knight Strike Squad, the first can be seen (HERE) but this squad is painted by me to match the original purchased ones. I don't intend to build much more, a Dreadknight maybe as I like the model, but sold some more unpainted ones as they have been languishing in the to-do mountain for half a decade. These got done as a palette cleanser and since I'd already finished a Psycannon Trooper.
The Justicar is armed with the fearsome Daemon Hammer. The paint job was simple enough, over a bright silver spray I used Nuln Oil and then Drakenhoff Nightshade with an over brush of Iron Hands Steel to brighten up the highlights.
The Force Falchion blades were done to match the original force, with Corvus Black and some witchfire flame lightning effects. An a gloss finish like obsidian.
The Force Falchions are great for extra attacks. The reds are Mephiston Red, Agrax and highlighted Evil Sunz Scarlet. Golds Retributor, washed Reikland and highlighted Auric Armour.
Another Force Falchion trooper.
The Psycannon painted in 2018, matches these new additions and the original force.
The personal heraldry on the shoulder pauldron.
That's a nice palette cleanser and a long overdue project of the to-do list. Thanks for dropping by and whilst I have the motivation maybe I'll tackle some long overdue Genestealers for the stalled Genestealer Cult, another shelf army.

Cheers, Siph (4pts)

Imperial Agents - Grey Knight Strike Squad

Hi All, thanks for dropping in. The last and latest squad of my Grey Knights force that was painted by Jeff at the Beard Bunker along with some Terminators and the Grey Knight Rifleman Dreadnought in Jul 2016 so its good to have these off the niggly to-do pile and join my forces properly.  It won't be the last Grey Knights tho, I have some more I need to paint myself.
The Justicar is armed with a Daemon Hammer for some high strength strikes and the specialist has a Psycannon which I painted myself so see if I could match Jeff's scheme, so I am glad I could so the rest of the force will match these.
This Squad is armed with the Force Halberds for the added strength against tougher targets, but the next squad will be Falchions as two swords with an extra attack works out better when you do the odds and looks cool... but Halberds are the classic GK look and Jeff armed them anyway ;)  3 PlusPlus does a great article on the efficiency of the GK weapons, check it out HERE.
The individual warriors have their own heraldry on their armour shown here on the Pauldrons. Thanks Jeff, and thank-you all for dropping by and having a look-see. Cheers, Siph. (2 painting points for the Psycannon and re-basing)
