My POP Goes
The Monkey Deathwatch shoulder pad sets arrived in the mail yesterday
and I spent a pleasant afternoon building a six man Kill-Team.
There's a fantastic reinvigorated to being able to expand beyond the
one provided in the Kill-Team box set.
So I'm going
to try and paint this Kill-Team across a couple of sessions this
week.
Aside from
the shoulder pads they have a simple and uniform colour scheme. This
team (known informally as Team Shifty) is led by a Star Phantom and
features an Exorcist, a Marine Malevolent, an Emperor's Hand, an
Angel Sanguine and a Black Dragon. All chapters with dark secrets or
suspicious reputations (apart from the Emperor's Hands who it turns
out have no background whatsoever and I was thinking of someone
else).
This will
also be the final test phase for these 3D printed shoulder pads: they
fit the models perfectly, were easy to remove from their sprue and
have excellent detail. Now I just have to see how easy they are to
paint. They are a little more delicately detailed than the GW
equivalent so it may take extra effort to paint them properly
(there's an Angels of Vigilance symbol so minutely detailed I
genuinely worry about getting to that one).
