Iron Hands Heavy Weapons Replacements

With a 40k tournament coming up this weekend, I decided my Iron Hands were decidedly lacking in Grav. So I pulled a couple of Devastator marines out of storage and painted them up in 10th Legion colors to make them match my force. Unfortunately I only have two... will probably stick them in with Tactical squads to give them extra oomph from their Rhinos. Although you can't see it from this angle, the Sergeant has a little augury tracker in his hand, which helps fit the narrative that he is supposed to call out targets to the squad.

I have a few bases to do but hopefully I get to them before the weekend.

I also did a couple of Lascannon marines, for the same reason. This way I can give my squads some heavy weaponry, making them more effective all-arounders. Or I can put all the heavy weapons into a single devastator squad, fill it up with bodies, and them combat squad the unit into two smaller units. Haven't decided yet, but I am leaning towards the latter.

What's On My Table: 4/16/2016

So I haven't been getting as much done as I would have liked lately. Such is life. But for what I have been getting done, it's coming out pretty well! The devastators above are coming along nicely. I tried to replicate the glowing effect in the grav amps, it's a bit hard to see at a distance but up close it looks pretty nice!

I also kit-bashed a tech marine using mostly parts from the devastator box. It came out fairly well. I also have an apothecary on the way, as well as the rest of a command squad I plan to fill up with grav weapons...

I don't have a picture, as I am still going through it all and cleaning/stripping/organizing, but I got a good deal of Dark Angel bits and ends from a local player that wasn't using them anymore. Included was 2 finecast Belials. One was magnetized, but it looks like only the Lightning claw pair go with it. The other is the sculpt with the sword, but the finecast sword looks like total gak so I will have to find a way to replace it. Probably will pin a plastic powersword blade in it's place. I'd like to make a TH/SS combo variant of Belial, but I don't have any Storm Shields lying around. Also included were a couple snap fit marines missing their bolters (fine by me, I needed some guys to hold grav guns) and a single bike model with a plasmagun. I'll be chopping him up and making a Libarian out of him, most likely.

All in all, I have a good deal of work to do left on my table. I should probably get to it!
