New Vehicle for 40k or Xenos rampant

 I have been on need of a troop transport for a while. My guard die quite early when there  is not a lot of cover! The chimeras are nice but I fancied something different (and cheaper). After many months of looking I had found not many but had seen 2 on Etsy. Handily from the same company Culverin Models (here's the link for their Etsy store). The 2 options were

Both look very distinctive but I settled on the bottom one. It's called the Ursa troop transport (£18 though at moment it's on sale for £14! 29th July when I wrote this). The top one was cool but I wasn't feeling the open transport section. 

So I ordered and eagerly awaited the delivery. When it arrived I was apprehensive as I had not bought a model off Etsy before but I was pleasantly surprised. 

 I'm assuming it's 3d printed. All the parts are nice and chunky and with clear ways they stick together. I had to do next to no to no prep work on it. You also get a nice selection of guns to choose from. Obviously I'm sure magnets would give you many options here but I don't do well with magnets so I went with 2 flamers!! Mwha ha ha ha 

The build went nice and smooth the only minor hiccup was I ran out of super glue half way through. So had to buy some more but then I ploughed onwards!

Boom! Built

A late night undercoat session and we are ready to paint. It scales really well next my hellhound I reckon

New models (GW ones )

 

I have finally acquired the Guard models I really always wanted. Gaunts Ghosts! My favourite books from Games Workshop is now my army leading command squad. As you can imagine these were built and undercoated in lighting time! So here's the results!

Colonel -Commissar Gaunt 

The main man himself! My new army warlord, armed with his trusty chainsword and bolt pistol ready to lead his Ghosts and my army to victory! (Hopefully)

Mkoll

The stealth master himself. Ready to cause some damage with his straight silver!

Colonel Colm Corbec

One of my favourite characters in the series. Though some how I always pictured him as bald guess I missed a character description somewhere while reading.

Try Again Bragg

My favourite character in the books. Though on the model I'm not a massive fan of his beret but I'll look past it as it's Gaunts ghosts!

Major Elim Rawne

The shifty but always loyal  major to the Ghosts looks ready for up close action. 

Hlaine Larkin

Mad Larkin is the master sniper of the Gaunts a bit unstable but always on target!

There's the gang. Can't wait to try them out, they are still just humans so can die very easily so got to be careful how I play them but they have some fun rules that I can't wait to try out.
