I was able to finish up my first bike squad the other night.
I haven't been able to do much terrain work because of the weather so I've been stuck inside at my workbench. I've never been hampered by the weather before but with the size of my projects now, it means I need to go outside and spray paint/dry and it just hasn't been in my favor these past few times I've had free time.
But getting these guys done was simple really. I just needed to replace 2 regular arms with plasma guns and repaint the Apothecary's shoulder pad to show his rank.
He originally had a "fast attack" transfer on his shoulder pad so I carefully scraped it away and then repainted it white.
To get the Apothecary design, I made four small dots in a row.
Then I made 3 dots to the left and the right of the first four.
Then I connected the dots. Simple as that.
I wanted to make sure the design was as "correct" as possible and I don't have the money to just go get the plastic Apothecary shoulderpad.
I added the wings to the side because I thought they made a nice touch to the design overall and I saw it in a Codex done that way too.
