Howdy,
Its been a while since a post, but what with work and life stuff getting in the way blogging has had to wait. I have been productive none the less!
As I mentioned previously I had an old Blood Claws squad of the metal variety that I began painting when I was much younger. I had dabbled a bit with them after getting a Space Wolves Battle Force, around about the time when I got back into the hobby. They had however remained unloved since then.

Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy! |
The first four were in the worst condition, with a mixture of old and new arms and weaponry they look very rag tag!
|
The three musketeers! |
The second lot had a bit more paint on them but still weren't where i wanted them to be. Even the stand out Sergeant felt a bit amateur.

Nice hammer Bob! |
The final group was made up of the three Claws that had seen most of the paint action, but were still a bit flimsy in terms of highlighting. Bob the central Claw is famous around these parts with 'Her in Doors' having a bit of a crush on him! Must be that big Hammer!
So began the process of painting a batch of 10 guys in various states of disrepair. I must confess at this point there are still two to go, they will get completed by next week and they are the guys in need of the most work! I paid particular attention to the edge highlighting of everything, completely inspired by the Chaos Knight from Hero Quest in the last post.

Paint Jobs Anyone? |
Here is the first half of the squad, Bob's Hammer conceals the Sergeant nicely!
I did feel the need for some change at this point and put together some Wolf Guard Terminators from a host of leftover bits and some purchased bodies.

I'll Cut Ya! |
Getting back to the Claws, here is one final shot of a couple more guys completed. Hopefully next post I'll have a full squad on show. I heard that that there is a
Storm Eagle that needs filling up!

Nearly a full complement |
Be Back Soon!
