A Veteran, sometimes called a Hardened Veteran, is a trooper of the Astra Militarum who has survived multiple battles and has become a skilled and efficient warrior for the Emperor of Mankind. Within the disgraced forces of the Penal Legions, such as the Savlar Chem Dogs, Hardened Veterans are instead known as "Hardened Criminals."

5 Burst is Best Burst. I was motoring along Operation Coldfront when it occurred to me that I needed a burst 5 AP HMG in any TAK link I was going to put down on the table. Hence I got this guy done. 4 ball- 1 tracer... except where I miscounted! He is brutal and effective by all accounts so I'm happy to have him done. Nice camo! I did him exactly the same way as the last Veteran Kazak. It's a scheme that works out well. Did a touch better with the eyes this time. Very excited to get him on the table and blasting away. Short controlled bursts.... Until next time.

The Sanguinary Guard, known during the Great Crusade as the Ikisat or the "Burning Ones," for their ardour and unwavering devotion, are the most elite Veteran Astartes of the Blood Angels Space Marine Chapter.

Last five Beret Stormtrooper completed! All twenty ready for war, deployed in two Veteran Squads: Starting miniatures: These Veterans need frag and crack grenades, they are Stormtroopers! (If you look at previous posts, other two Veterans have selfmade red crack grenades.) I have some trouble for Veteran Sergeant conversion. I loved original miniature, but he had three weapons! So I had to cut off his laspistol, years ago, replacing it with a strange melta bomb... Now photoshop helps me finding the right configuration. Anyway, none of these is the right one. (I'm quite sorry to modify this miniature, but I have to say that this latex uniform is not so military...) Conversion and green stuff: I cut frag grenades to duplicate them and I adjust two Vetarans height. Veteran Sergeant need a bit difficult conversion with green stuff work to rebuild his leg and a frag grenade in his right hand. Painting complete: Two Veteran squads completed. Now I have to complete Command Squad... PART 5 - BERET STORMTROOPER CONVERSION
