Traitor IG (Infardi) Update #1



Today, The Inferno brings you another update from Cruor Vault and his Infardi traitor guard.  This project is coming along nicely and I am getting worried that I may have to face down this list sooner rather than later.  Take it away Cruor...



I spent all weekend either running a Fantasy tournament for my local store or helping Duke build terrain for his Feast of Blades event.  Between that and a little bit during the week I was able to get some building done.  After a mountain of sprues and several new blades, I built roughly half the infantry.  Man was that a chore!  The Catachan arms don’t fit on Flagellant bodies without major reconstruction.  The shoulders are literally thicker than the Flagellant torsos; this meant that each arm had to be shaved down by roughly a quarter or a third of its total thickness!  Despite this complication I was able to build all the infantry platoon squads, one of the veteran squads, and my Astropath.  Here is the list as it stands.

Close ups of the flame trooper from an infantry squad: The
flame trooper uses the cadian flamer with the strap removed
and grafted on to flagellant arms that were previously
holding a flail. IIRC both arms had to be repositioned at
the wrists, elbows and left one mid tricep.
