Hi All
I am currently stripping most of my older IG and converting them into a renegade force, the Verratian 3rd Infantry, who are dedicated to Khorne. Now when I say dedicated to khorne, I mean psychopaths and sociopaths to the man, but not "rush forwards and beat them to death with your rifle", they will be using military tactics and strategies, they just like killing things - like the Blood Pact.
I've posted up the guides I'm going to use for the conversions (on the News Network Blog and on my own blog) to create renegades armed with autoguns. I've stayed clear of using Catachan arms as I used them on my current IG army (Yes, I have 2 different IG armies up to about 2500 points each, now stop looking at me funny!)
As of today I have 150 guardsmen stripped and am busy re-basing the models onto spare bases (I prefer to do the bases seperately and then glue the finished model to it after painting). I'm not 100% sure on what list I am going to build, although it will primarily be infantry based as my other IG army is my tournament army (mech IG platoons, based on a Desert Patrol) and this one is more for conversions/painting/looks rather than a beatstick list, and I fancy a change of pace.
As to the colour scheme I'll be using, I'll definately be doing camo, but I'm torn between woodland and urban camo and I'm not entirely sure which one I will want to do as of yet. The Urban camo is more appealling as I like the look but I don't fancy doing urban camo on vehicles (unless someone know an easy way to do an easy to do Berlin Urban Camouflage Pattern)

Any ways to save people clicking on all the links to see the end result of my guide heres the completed guardsman
For the moment the thread will be nearly all WIP (bar a few colour scheme tests) and once I've got most of them finished I'll switch to full PIP mode.
Thanks for reading...
