Got my 2 battle forces atm, not planning on adding anything to the IG force for another 3 months at least. DE and VC armies are taking priority, not touching the guardsmen until they are both made + mostly painted

1 x medusa
1 x manticore(IA version w/manticore missiles)
Updated to fixed list will be using for a while

Updated list

Had my second Corporation army turn up(big shout out Square orange games, superb delivery time and price!) , so have begun convert stuff up into 2 command squads so I'll have no GW infantry at all. Aprox £90 for around 90 troops from mantic compared to the similar stuff from GW being around £170 (2 battle boxes and 2 extra squads, only thing extra would be Sentinals) makes the extra work needed on the mantic stuff worthwhile in my opinion.
Also made a third melta vet Squad up, and 4 more lascannon stands.
Bought a deathstrike/manticore off ebay, just need to repaint it.
Just need to get some Vox casters off a bits store and glue them to the back of my infantry and all done.
Also based all the stuff i'd made before = quite a good week for my Imp guard!
Going to undercoat them all in a bit once the PVA dries.

^ that horrible moment when you realise exactly the size of the task ahead. All undercoated now, just got to start painting them tomorrow............

impressive stuff! Hope you are faster at painting than me!

May have got carried away on eBay and have a third Vendetta on the way.........
