Crimson Fists Landspeeder Typhoon
Crimson Fists have been the posterboys of Warhammer 40k, long before the Ultramarines took over their place. It was the mass of miniatures in MK6 ‘beaky’ armor, that sparked the idea with me to build a small, around 1000 points strong Crimson Fists force. Just enough to be able to play along someone else in a joined forces match. I painted the first squad of five, then another. Adding also the classic Rogue Trader style markings to the seargents. A self-printed dreadnought came next, and then I was thinking of what my army should look like.
I wanted it to be a fast moving strike force, the tip of the spear for a larger force. So I decided to build them around the concept of being highly mobile. Looking at my squad, and thinking speed, Landspeeder came to my mind. I bought a new Landspeeder Typhoon kit and build, then painted it. Then I bought another 3 from ebay, which had been built and primed. They are still waiting to get finished, but take a look at my first paintjob prototype.
More to come.
