A returning client is adding more Imperial Fist Space Marine components to his army; Thunderfire cannon, Sternguard Veterans, scouts and lots of Drop Pods.
I’ve used the normal tried and true way of painting Imperial Fist Space Marines as discussed in previous posts again. There was a slight difference in the way I applied the weathering to the Drop Pods though…. I finally got an airbrush and just had to let loose with it. I only used two colors to complete the weathering (in particular the scorch marks) for the Drop Pods; GW Chaos Black and an overcoat of thinned GW Rhinox Hide.
Here are the finished results painted to our ‘Standard Level’:
Thundefire Cannon
Sternguard Veterans:
Imperial Fist Scouts:
I should make note here that the Scout’s desert camo cloaks were airbrushed (again another excuse to get some time and practice with it).
Imperial Fist Drop Pods:
