PROJECT: Heartbreakers (Special Duties Pltn, 349th AF(R)

General Biakal –

A while i go i posted some WIPS for these guys but just recently i got them painted, along with a bagload of other infantry guys i seem to be painting right now.

"Sarge was an odd fish, ya know? left his left arm in some tussle years ago. he was full on bionic.
but... i wasn't quite the full GalCred... he'd seen this guy he knew be blinded by some experimental Tau sniping laser. Few guys in his platoon too. So what he does is, he goes to the aircrew QM and asks for an old pilots helmet and visor. them visors are thrown away if they get the smallest scratch on 'em, cos up there you could miss something tiny. out on the ground... well, aint that important. So whenever we go into combat, down comes that nuke-flash visor..."

Unamed Trooper, Heartbreakers Squad.

This squad has a few more bits of kit than normal for me. firstly, everyone has a pouch or grenade on their left shoulder pad. i saw some kid do it once and lenton and make a right cunt-up of it. the trick is to use scout pouches as they are smaller.
also they all have a melta-bomb on their back, and one has a demo charge. they are armed with the carbine from the old tank accessories sprue, a nice juxtaposition to the extra kit they have. it makes them look more mobile, plus i can use it in game as a normal las, or proxy it for a shotgun, using its compact size to explain its shorter range.

Nicely done!
Have I ever told you it's been a pleasure to watch you painting technique improve over the years since we first started the forum? because it is!
