Not to bore people with yet more imperial guard, i figured to keep my creative juices going i'd document my 1st voyage into imperial guard. Apologies that the pics are mediocre at best.
For starters, i wanted to do a basic transport to wet my appetite for IG armor. I chose a chimera for starters. I'm using a variation of "CADMAT" the canadian variant of digital camoflauge. The stencils were bought from a pretty useful site: [URL="http://tacticalcamo.com/MARPAT/digi.php"]http://tacticalcamo.com/MARPAT/digi.php[/URL]

This brings me up to about week 3 of my endeavors. Being a former eldar player, the valkyries were what really sold me on the new guard codex.

From this tutorial i was introduced to the wonderful world of OIL PAINTS! Incredibly easy ways to weather vehicles. Below is one valkyrie with the panels half-shaded, and one finished one:
More to come given the pic-cap per post.
