Hello guys,
before HH 2.0 hits the shelves I wanted to assemble and paint a squad for my future Iron Hands force. Therefore I looked into my pile of shame and discovered a box of IH Tactical marines. After raiding the Catachan, SM & Chaos bitz boxes of mine I was lucky enough to collect ten flamers. Oh and I also used up all my remaining beakie helmets and avoided Aquila chest plates in order to get the Heresy vibe going.
