It’s been awhile, but The Scythes Scout project expands with my return to terra firma, I’ve been able to get into some hobby work again.
First additions; a veteran sniper scout and a retro missile launcher specialist (among three other basic troops). Both with my trademark greaved boots; ala old school scouts. Because, as any Scythe marine would know, carapace is what you need for wading through the acids in a Bio-Ship. For other chapters reading this, note that down. Free advice.
Ever since I began this project I fully intended to use an old school Missile Launcher. The new heresy era launchers brought out by Forgeworld were a godsend, though some shaving of the arm and launcher were required at the trigger grip side.
It appears I bumped the tacked arm lower, it normally rests flush against the targeter housing.
For the Sniper scout, and my growing desire to make a Necromunda-esque skirmish force; I wanted a seasoned veteran who is there for the young noviates, a watching eye and guardian – felling any enemy who sneak behind his charges.
Clearly more to do details wise for both, but a beginning had to be noted! :)

Can’t wait… You’ll have lots of fans waiting to see what comes of these guys
Hi man :D
Looking forward to getting back into it; and now I find myself in great company – so many Scythes players :)
Hadn’t looked at this site in the longest time… Seems I missed quite a bit.
Great to see the scout roster expand!
And the idea for a Necromunda-esque skirmish force is good one!
Hey! Modhail :) Thanks – about to add another update in the next day; fun times ahead :D
