Imperial Guard: Rebasing Project (Part 15 - Platoon Squad 2)

And another of my 10-man squads is rebased. Most of the models here are vintage models, but there are a couple of old Catachan metal models to fill out numbers.

And the rebasing project (like the Guard) keeps rolling on... Slow and Purposeful.

Imperial Guard - Rebasing Project (Part 14 - Platoon Command Squad 1)

As I mentioned before, I've swapped a few models in-and-out of my various command squads so the membership of this squad has changed a little between the "Before" and "After" photos.

In fact apart from the Junior Officer model, it's entirely different!

Note the model at the back and left of the "After" photo - one of several female Guardsmen I have in my force.

Imperial Guard: Rebasing Project (Part 13 - Heavy Weapon Squad 2)

Here's another of my Heavy Weapon Squads on its updated bases. Too many models! Too many bases! Getting there though. Nearer the end than the beginning.

An anti-personnel squad this time - Heavy Bolters and Autocannons.

Imperial Guard: Sentinel Platoon (Part 2 - Command Sentinel)

Many weeks ago I wrote a post about wanting to build an Apocalypse formation for my army in the shape of a platoon of Sentinel walkers.

Nothing happened for weeks because I failed to buy the paint I needed and then got sidetracked into rebasing the guard.

Well I'm formally back on track and here is the first model for the platoon, the boss man!

Imperial Guard - Rebasing Project (Part 12 - Commissar Yarrick)

On the whole I avoid named characters when building armies. I've never really liked the idea of them, preferring to play my own chapters/forces and so on. That doesn't always gel with having a named character in the army (certainly with Space Marines).

I have only two exceptions - Yarrick and some Tau characters (Farsight and Aun'Va - neither of which are yet built/painted). All are for the same reason: I got them accidentally. Either as part of ebay lots (Yarrick) or as a result of inheriting the army (Tau).

As with a lot of my models, this is an old, old Yarrick mini. I'm not sure of the exact date, but I did find a reference that said it was pictured in the 2nd Ed. rulebook, which would place it in the early 1990s.

Imperial Guard: Rebasing Project (Part 11 - Platoon Squad 1)

Another Infantry squad from my collection gets the rebasing treatment. Another one bites the dust!

Well, the modelling snow and static grass anyway.

Imperial Guard: Rebasing Project (Part 10 - Heavy Weapon squad 1)

When I built these heavy weapons teams I deliberately based the "loader" models on 25mm round bases so that I could remove them as wound markers.

Good plan - except it made more bases for me to redo.

Hey ho.

I have several of these teams and tend to swap and change models between them so you may notice variations between the "Before" and "After" pics.
