The Badab War Project, Part 1

Some of you guys may have already known that I have taken part in Alvin's Badab War mini project. Why? It's actually simple, I just need an excuse to give justice for my pile of AOBR marines and terminators. Plus, this particular chapter that I chose, also gave me an excuse to build a prototype Custodes model. I've started with a 1500pts army (pending the Siege Mantlets), with a future plan of 2 Thunderfire Cannons (if a Finecast version is available) to round it up into a 1750pts army. For 2000pts, I have no idea at the moment.


Concurrently preparing myself for the upcoming Legio Malaysia's campaign, I've decided to put this project on hold. So, I've given myself a deadline to finish whatever I can by this weekend. It turns out that I fared better than I expected; primed, basecoated, primary colour applied, and preshading done. So far, this is what I've managed since Sunday night.


Hope I can do more work on them by this weekend before officially putting them on hold. But who knows, maybe I could pull everything off. Stay tune for more updates on this project (hopefully).

    According to fluff, there are only a handful of custodes guard, I think the one that you field already take up 0.5% of their population, kekekekeke

    it's a fairly simple conversion actually..don't worry, will show them later..

    any suggestion on the bases?
    brown looked monotonous, green/grey a bit too out of place..any other ideas than snow/ice bases?
