After kitting out the standard Korpsmen with all their extra equipment I put together some additional pieces of gear for the Sergeants and Voxtroopers.
The Sergeants are all wearing capes, so they can't carry a backpack. The Voxtroopers carry their radio on their back, also preventing them to carry a backpack. For these models I made a large satchel to be worn on their belt.
I also designed a bag to be carried by a belt over the shoulder. These bags could contain anything from medical supplies to explosives or classified material... Every Squad has a Korpsman with such a bag.
For the moment, I haven't included any special weapons in my infantry squads, but I do want a few heavy weapons mixed in with the regular troopers. The heavy weapon of choice is going to be the missile launcher. I put the crew on regular bases. In this way, they fit on the movement tray with the rest of the Squad.
I also equipped the missile launchers with belts, just like the lasguns of the Korpsmen. For these teams I designed a tube containing a rocket, which I included in a special backpack and carrying bag.
The choice for the missile launcher is mostly based on looks, I like the way it resembles a panzershreck; I think it fits well with the theme of the army... But it also helps that it is very flexible.
Hey man, love the look of your original and new take (red) Valour Korps! I’ve been starting to print my own collection of them recently, even if I haven’t settled on a scheme yet.
ReplyDeleteI hate to be a nag, but do you have an STL available somewhere for the backpack you made, with the hole for respirator? I have all the parts from The Makers Cult but have no skill with digital sculpting.
I’d be happy to chip you a couple bucks for the file, and the file for the shoulder bag if you’re willing!!
Hi, thanks for the compliment!
DeleteI shared the backpacks on the TMC Discord, they can be found in the derivatives folder. I'm glad you like them,they were a lot of fun to make...
Ah ok, well if I resub to TMC again I’ll try to find them. Was hoping they’d be up somewhere like Cults or Thingiverse!
DeleteYou should drop me a line... There should be a contact form around here, somewhere...
DeleteI sent you a message via the contact thing on the right of the webpage!
DeleteYes, read and replied... That contact form works😁, included it after reading your question.
