40K Iron Warriors by Mage updated 18/08

Originally I was going paint the bikers in the original army as the Purge (5th edition Codex) before Legion keywords and detachments were a thing. It was just to mix up the army and provide a change of colour.

The five Terminators are leftover my previous army and intended to make them Khorne Termaintors. The previous army has about ten or fifteen Terminators so these were kind of spare.

Everything was dusted and sprayed over with army painter Gunmetal spray.

I used a large GW brush to dust the model and use it exclusively for that purpose. You can see how dusty the model is in the second picture, and a third is how I carry out the simple task.

Converted Chaos Lord with Power Fist and Multi Melta. I forgot I made this guy and love how he looks. Two of the Marines I snapped the hands off of and they will get special weapons at some point. I primed everything else.

I’m happy with the mix of units in the army so far. I have a lot more models that are not pictured yet and have had more progress made on their paint job. When I fix my Light Box I will update this with same.

It wasn’t a bad day at all for spraying models. While my army painter Gunmetal Grey primer is out of date by two years it still went on fine. Maybe a little tiny teeny weeney bit grainy but it suits the gritty look of wethered, battered Iron Warriors who weather sieges.

The Terminators in all their glory. I know they are only primed, but they still look really good after it! I have to touch them up a little by hand as I missed a few nooks and crannies with the previous red paint showing through.

Finally a hint as to what is coming next…
