Assault Marines (who don't fly so well...)

<Performs rage reduction exercises...>

So I finally broke out of my painting slump.  I was excited yesterday to get some work in on some Chaos Assault Marines yesterday - I decided to use up the old resin jump packs I had laying around and I finished these guys this morning.

Then I dropped them. 

Outside.

On a brick staircase.

I broke four of them...and my ire was well and truly raised.  I also have a chainsword hiding somewhere in the grass in my back yard.  I was able to superglue the resin backpacks on and replace a chainsword, but I'm secretly angry that I broke so many of them.  I think they're fixed, but I've marked some on the base which may need further attention.  I tried to stress test the rest of the arms and jump packs and I think I found all of the broken stuff.  This kind of thing really puts me in a foul mood so I'm glad I was able to fix them quick enough.








Keen-eyed geeks will notice the colour shift.  I was going to make these into a separate chapter for the Lead Adventure forum, but I got lazy and just made them into my Chaos force.  They are Skeleton Bone based as opposed to Necrotic Flesh but they fit in fine I think.
