There is not a lot of love given to House Kurita infantry in the lore; though the recent expansion on infantry types in the 3080's Tech Readouts are well received. For this project I decided to render a version of House Kurita sniper platoons - an entire company. Though in fairness a company of snipers is only like 21 dudes - so it was an easy way to beef out my special troops battalion. The TR says the snipers are found in many militaries but goes on to describe a recent House Liao sniper unit. For this project I assumed to Kurita snipers would have roughly the same pattern kit as everyone else - gray combat helmets, tan utiltiies. It makes it easier to distinguish on the field. I suppose I could have been cheeky, skpped the models and just layed down a hex full of scrub and said they were concealed in ghillie suits, but that seemed a bit much.
These models are from Vanguard Airborne Specialists. They are cast in metal which makes them an ease to work with. I have found recently that resin infantry works great on some models but they are fragile, best used when posing with vehicles etc that can take the hit if you drop one.
