Have you done any pictures of the Tanith 1st?

Actually not, Tanith 1st represents a big work on the history (for campaigns) so not ye but maybe in the future.

Have you read the books?  Dan Abnett's description of their uniforms doesn't quite square with artwork and 'Eavy Metal paint jobs.  I have to admit, I prefer the artist's style.  But I love that the book has them using halftracks, attack cycles and the odd non-Chimera APC.

I gotta find a way to make cheap and decent conversions of those guys, and represent them in the current rules.  I once heavily converted Catachans.  Kitted them out, shaved the arms down, added hair and gave them shin puttees.  They still stood out a bunch.  Wish Forge World would give them a little love.

 Darndest thing is, I can't field all the characters.  There's no point where all the heroes and major supporting characters from the books are together.

I think.

We have all the book but only first one is finished. Victoria lamb Miniature is a good alternative for Tanith.

.....oh!

A little TOO good to be a mere 'alternative'.  Check the rifle muzzles.  Seems providing non-Citadel models for Tanith Guardsmen was her intention.

Still need officers and heavy weapons, though.
