I found out that devastator squad is indeed powerful in TT. So being the usual ''collect them all guy'', I set off to grab a devastator squad. But I was having trouble choosing which one to buy:

The new devastator squad, (comes with two faced sergeant and lion cloths ).

The old devastator squad , ( comes with the head of the old sergeant that I wanted)

The Space Wolf devastators (Long Fangs)

Of course It would be unfluffy if I get the Space Wolf devastators but the owner of the independent stockist recommended me this box set because not only do I get the space marine sprues, it comes with a space wolf sprue that is usable with conversation purpose. And plus I get 5 space wolf heads that look badass.

So hmm, I got it. And it was worth every penny..uhh.. sen... Last I remember the Space Marine devastator Squad has a rocket launcher, apparently the Long Fangs replaces the rocket launcher with a heavy multi-melta.

And yeah painted the first mini.

I was having problems gluing the arms, the sculpt is pretty wierd, in the end after some struggling I found that I will be needing green stuff to fill in some open gaps.

It's good to use components from other kits. Makes your models look more unique.

Nice glow effect.:)

Yep mahon, I sure will after I've finished this squad. :)

I decide to use some parts of the Space Wolf sprue for the sergeant, the sergeant's helmet is from the Assault Squad.

I think I know what you mean, Slawek. Even though the conversiobn looks cool (well, it does) it makes the mini lose some of its Imperial Fists character - the pure chapter, pretty close to the codex, etc.

Hmm... a lot of people didn't really fancy the wolf backpack, I'll remove it then...

Very nice looking devastators. I think you have got a great squad and also after seeing some of your other pics the whole army is going to look fab.
