I come to you today with some updates and planning for my Astra Militarum army. I wanted to take a different approach with my IG and do something more challenging. With that in mind, I chose the 108th Wyverns. They appeared in one image in the 8th Edition Astra Militarum Codex and I absolutely loved the scheme. So, I went with it. Here are some WIP pictures.
These guys are squad one of two for my 500pts list. With that being said, I have like 100 dudes to paint and those are just the Guardsmen! I have commissars, company commanders, heavy weapon teams, sentinels, and of course tanks. Lots of stuff for me to work on. Let's get on to the 500pt list for the Escalation Series I am participating in.

Keep in mind that our goal is to build and paint a 2000pt army that we have fun painting and playing. I am in a series with several people that still have never played WH40k, so we want to have fun. Our main focus is to play the models that you think are badass and cool as shit. Not so much on the competitive side of the game.
That's all I got for now. Thanks for stopping by.
