WIP: Helion Rain - Prepping The Minis & Setting The Scene

Time to prep the minis for that lovely base from last week. Into the drink for a bit and then some ultra sonic bath time for the eBay lictor :) While that goes on I'll prep the scouts...

The scout with the shot gun needs a more aggressive pose. All it takes is a small leg re-positioning.
Now lets green stuff the crap out of that hack job...
 While we have that GS out let's give these guys some Raven Guard fetishes. Cue reference pics!!!
Big tough space marines picking on cute little birds - very grimdark o_O
~DING!~ Ooh! Our lictor is clean...
Well, we still have all our GS out might as well get everyone assembled.
 Now let's figure out where we are going to put them to bring this scene together before we prime everything.
 Wow. Nice! Like a moment captured in time. Also, they are sooooooooo dead. Everybody is ready for priming...
I'm going enamel for these as it will help cover the base better and the details on GW minis aren't so fine that they get clogged by the tough stuff.
***NOVA UPDATE***
More progress on Telion and the Scouts. I wasn't sure at first, but I decided on classic cream colored fatigues on these boys!
 Sniper scouts next.
***NOVA UPDATE***

Next Post: I start slapping paint on the Raven guard! Thanks for checking out this project and as always hit me up in the comments, troll that blog roll and remember; you can't spell paint without a little pain :)
