Damn, you've sure been busy since I last checked this thread, nice work mate! I can see that you realy love flyers... And well, who doesn't!? You're realy going all in on this army and I realy love it. Your based and painted flyers look great and they are a great inspiration for me. What did you use to make the flying stand? I realy want to know, and how you made it. :)

Thanks, well the stands are 3 cd/dvd's stuck on on top of each other. then there is a bolt, and a meta/alumium rod, which iv had threaded with a lathe to add the tread for the bolt. to get 5 rods it cost me 4 cans of beer, as my dads friend do the bars for me. And yes i have been busy. well in a few weeks i be geting 1 HQ squad, and more troops i hope. and maybe more Valks once the plastic ones are out.

I agree with Deserter, that looks like a great concept for STs. Elysian body, Krieg arms?

Very cool Storm Trooper idea you got there mate! The Death Korp Grenadier parts fit perfectly... If you're going with the head from the baneblade kit, won't that be rather troublesome if you're making a whole unit of these glory boys?

Looking at the picture, i think the head looks a little too big.

Why don't you use the Elysian Resperator Heads instead? I know they may look a little too much like your normal guys, but i think with a little colour variation, they will fit in perfectly :)

My 2 cents :)

true, well i will try them out or the other thing is to use heads which some one else have used on his vets (cant recall the guys name) with the beret heads from westwind. no update as iv only made up 4 troops ready for the storm troopers, and well made the sentinels, just not glued legs yet as im thnking of re modeling them.

EDIT Death Korp ACE AVATAR! you make it your self? as if so how you do them?

Actually, the West Wind Beret heads would look awsome on these guys, makes them 'Stormtroopery' (if there is such a word :D) too.

My Avatar? Well, over the past year, i've looked on many forums to do with the hobby, and i nick any cool avatars, and store them in my picture folder. When i feel a change is needed on the Avatar, i just change it to another stolen avatar.

Just plain old stealin' ;)
