Pathfinder Challenge

Bill of The Dead Tau Project and The Gamers Lounge fame, is sponsoring a painting contest for our local gaming group, Sugarland Gamers. Here's the deal; Starting today, we have until May 30 to complete painting a 1000pt legal FOC army for judging.

I'm using this contest as a jab in the backside to finally get my Vostroyans painted. So here's what I'm using:

Co. Command Squad
Vostroyan Senior Officer (the guy with the baton)
2x Grenade Launchers
1 HW Team with either Heavy Bolter or Autocannon
Carapace Armor
Chimera, with ML/HB

Psyker Battle Squad
8x Psykers converted from Empire Flagellants
1x Mentor converted from Baneblade officer
Chimera with ML/HB

Veteran Squad
9x Vets, Grenadiers 3x Plasma
1x Vet Sergeant Las-Pistol, CCW
Chimera with ML/HF

Veteran Squad
9x Vets, Grenadiers 3x Melta
1x Vet Sergeant Las-Pistol, CCW
Chimera with ML/HF



Medusa
Heavily converted to resemble an JSU-122/152




Manticore
Largely scratch-built, chassis will be a half-track based on Dave Taylors excellent templates
Missiles will be modeled as 4 tube-launchers ala "Stalin's Pipe Organ"
