For the past year I have been creating a Heresy Era Imperial Fist army. The love for the fists was borne out of a commission I did for Paladin a while back for 10 Terminators. I then decided the love of Dorn and his yellow was too awesome to ignore. So keep calm, and reinforce Terra! Some shots of the work to date Original build stuff 
 The first tank  Squads take effect  The boss  Classic Speeder  Contemptor  Ceastus Ram  Storm Eagle (Games Day 2013 Golden Demon Finalist!)  Pred Executioner  Spartan  Storm Talon  Legion Glaive  |

Looks great!
I take it they are all the same colour, as a few pics seem a different shade...

I need to do a revised army shot I think on these guys. I really have put alot of effort in I think to getting a cohesive looking army together!
I am thinking the Ram needs some kind of go faster black stripes on the ram sections to give it some contrast.
Looking forward to getting Dorn and Sigismund models in the new year when they are released though for heresy part 3 plus any other special Fisty models they do

The storm eagle has the right amount of Other colours on it, i think the Ram is a bit too yellow  Especially near the front. |

Yup some dodgy lighting and different cameras cause the shade variance I believe. Although the Ram actually has a different hue thinking about it. It might need a revised yellow glaze when I add a few more details to it.

Outstanding stuff  . It will be good to see an army pic with the right colour balance... it looks a bit strange with the different colours in the various pix. |

I have the power of my Mac now. I even have my own shiny new Mac Book Air, so I might have to at least do some picture cropping and play with some piccie packages to resolve the photos in a singular light and background setting.
These guys will be on campaign in November at Carnac aka WHW
Currently working on objective markers, rekitting the units to be legal (they were originally built for the Tempus Fugitives Heresy campaign packs which are no longer in use (so meltaguns on Assault Marines for example which are now replaced with plasma pistols/flamers and ive used the FW decal sheet across the infantry to replace the bad Fist sculpts I had.
So a few tweaks here and there still ongoing!

Comparing your marines to mine I think mine are to clean. All your battle damage really gives them all so much more character! That's going to be something I'll have to work on I reckon |
