Project: Stormtrooper

With the completion of the Hellhammer and updating of the Hjaltland Light Infantry, it is time to move on to the next project. The next lot of models on the table are the Militarum Tempestus Dagr Ormr Strike Force. This force is partially completed with all the PDF heavy weapons squads, alongside a handful of Militarum forces, are painted and based, ready for action. This batch of models consists of two trays of storm troopers and a tray of PDF, approximately 45 storm troopers and 20 PDF soldiers. 

These should not take to long as they have a fairly basic colour scheme, with the storm troopers being based their dark red and then silver and black with some spot colours, like blue for scopes and eye lenses.

The squads have been given their markings already, there are 6 squads plus two command squads and the two commanders, giving quite a colourful display on the table.

5 of the squads, yellow is missing, plus white and black command squad and silver and gold commanders. 

The last tray of models is for the PDF, and consists of 2 commanders, a command squad, a special weapons squad and a squad of vets. These are for defensive actions and protection of the heavy weapons and so are only a few models that need painting.

Hopefully I'll get all these painted over the next couple of weeks, mostly due to recent developments.

Yep, that's a broken ankle, a classic winter injury. It's been very icey lately and we had a bit of an incident. Anyway, on checking the damage I managed to slip and break my ankle. To be fair, there was nothing the driver could have done and the council have been great in dealing with it, just annoying that one of the cars is being written off.

By the time you guys all read this I'll know if I need an operation on it, which I'm hoping, given the state of hospitals currently, I don't need!
