Scout Sentinels Finished – ToEMP Challenge 3 Meet

by dnyarak on Sep.06, 2009, under Finished Works

I finished these a few days back but haven’t had a chance to post until today. These are two more sentinels for my traitor guard army but scout versions armed (currently) with missile launchers.

the biggest conversion done on these is removing the roll bar and adding some spiky bitz. The banner is from the WFB flagellants from the Empire range.

The missile launchers are magnetized in case I decide multi-lasers or auto cannons are a better choice. I doubt I will mount lascannons as I have 6 of these on heavy weapon squads and having only bs 3 I would rather have multiple shots or blast weapons.

This also completes the current ToEMP challenge (I didn’t count the two armoured sentinels as I started them before the challenge was announced). Althogh I finished painting these a few days back I’m not counting these as complete until I post them here. For painting points this gives me:

Walkers x2 5 points each: 10 points
Lenses 1 point per model: 2 points
Walker details 5 points each: 10 points
Meeting Deadline: 2 points
Bonus points for detailed bases: 5 points

Total for Challenge 3: 29 points

Total Overall: 61 Points

I have only two heavy weapon teams left for my traitor guard to paint but I just dunked a bunch of my old Iron Warriors into a Simple Green bath so they may be up next on the painting desk.

Very nice, it’s amazing how a little conversion work changes a model so much.

Truly awesome! I agree with Corbane – the subtle yet effective conversions on those Sentinels have turned them into something else entirely.

Fantastic work, for being scout sentinels, they look decidedly menacing – I agree with the prior posters, the conversions are subtle and very well done! I really like the reds, the shading is top notch. Keep up the great work!

thanks for all the great comments guys! I’ve had a great time build this army and painting them up. I just ordered two hell hounds to add to the ranks.

Very Very Very cool!

I’m JUST about to start a renegade guard army myself.
Built up a company command squad mixing up Cadians, Catachan and Flagelant bitz and I thought that they looked alright till I saw THIS!

Huge Inspiration to my forthcoming work, can’t wait to see more!

Cheers =]
