Another day, another escort squadron...
Half the squadron hulls are the new battlefleet galaxy frigates, the rest are vanguard. All the prows are battlefleet galaxy.

Finally finished the last of my Heavy Infantry proxies to add to this gaggle. All made from 1 box of Marcher vets and then a pile of D-Day US Airborne bits (heads, LMGs, SMGs, most of the arms).
Squad of 4, 3 LMGs and a super bazooka. Might add a 5th guy if I find another LMG in the bits box. Might also get some brass rod and build an Aliens-style "smart gun" harness but not sure if I can be bothered, haha.
US D-Day Airborne bits, mostly WGA Marcher arms. NCO and heavy tesla rifles use the Marcher vets greatcoat bodies; the others use the normal infantry bodies.
In the end with the ATRDs they're actually not that much cheaper than Paragons (about 70pts cheaper for this squad of 6). However, kinda intentionally built them so they could be ambiguous enough to proxy as Paragons if needed.
1x Linebacker (magnetized)
6x Fireflies w/M1X1s
6x Fireflies w/M1X1s
1x Firefly flamethrower team w/ATRDs
Roberta Wells (Firefly)
Firefly Platoon Cmdr w/ two fireflies, all with ATRDs
The underside batteries plus the two flak towers at the back imply it's a Ret (that's what my friend says he's going to run it as) three dorsal lances are I guess that one massive gun, haha.
The 'spine' of the ship is Battlefleet Galaxy, the underside 'keel' is a BFGalaxy pagoda bridge. Underside batteries are all Vanguard, top side bits are all OG imperial or grand cruiser, the prow is Vanguard (the old resin addict Spear prow).
Decals are admech and sororitas AFAICR.
Fits almost a complete roster (still got a could of the options to build), though some are fighting in the shade, to quote Lord of the Rings.
Finished a magnetized base for my Corvus which means the kill team can clip on (roster of 8 for kt the game - still have 2 models left to finish the 40k squad). Blademaster is to one side just cos it looks cooler though.
Just finished these guys. Definitely took longer than I expected (was trying to do a super super quick scheme) just because there's a fair amount of detail on these guys, but not too bad.
After using the Marcher bodies to make a squad of Paragons (https://www.reddit.com/r/Konflikt47\_v2/comments/1s39l04/new\_wargames\_atlantic\_marcher\_us\_vets\_as\_paragon/), I figured I should do something cool with the dieselpunk M16s in the box. I remembered that the basic Rifle Squad has assault rifles, and figured that was as good a use as anthing. ATRDs and NCO head are from the Fireflies sprue.
Still haven't decided on how I'm building the last couple from the box. Probably both gravis (IHB and Frag), two hammers to give some options. Maybe another carbine if I can rustle up a spare body.
