Astartes Consul Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 ‘For Ultramar and Old Terra’ ‘When my end comes, in the bloody manner it is fated to be, I am content that my brothers will remember me. That is all that I have ever hoped for myself. What troubles me is that, with my passing, the names of a thousand comrades of old will fade. That will be my final regret.’ - Iskandar Locke, Personal Writings. +++ Well, what's this? Another Age of Darkness project log? Just in time for the new edition? I'm aware that I am by no means the only person on the forum right now who is both hyped for Heresy 2.0 and keen to motivate myself to power through a backlog before the new stuff lands. I've also been in a bit of a hobby bare patch and for quite a while have been thinking of setting up a little, semi-narrative project log to help motivate me and share some of the substandard background material I've written for my Ultramarines. I currently have a few thousand points of XIII Legion and allied Imperial Army in various stages of completion, with vague plans to include some Sisters of Silence & Custodes that I have sat in a box somewhere. You can see some more of all my hobby stuff over on Instagram but to get this thread rolling, here is the last character I finished. In game he's a Delegatus / Warmonger (RIP) / Centurion for smaller point games. Let me know what you think! +++ Centurion Amman Varid - Drop Assault Leader and Senior Company Officer - 2nd Chapter - 66th Company - XIII Legion Pearson73, Tyrannicide, Lord Marshal and 9 others 12 Back to top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scorpion Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) That half-bare head was an absolute triumph of a sculpt. Every kitbasher loves it. If the Mk2 are brought back, this half-helmet concept should return in plastic. It has already been done for Mk4 in resin (see profile pic), surely it can be done again?

Astartes Consul Posted April 10 Author Share Posted April 10 Not had a huge amount of hobby time so far this week, but have realised I'e got some good photos of one of my Tactical Squads already uploaded to my B&C gallery. These guys were completed early last year, and are the last unit I painted without any airbrush use. So while the highlights aren't as good as models I've painted since, I'm still quite happy with their overall look & the various kitbashes I used to give them some interest. +++ Oros Tactical Squad - II Chapter - LXVI Company - XIII Legion +++ That's a great model, really like the pose and the shade of blue. great looking mini. Thanks both! That half-bare head was an absolute triumph of a sculpt. Every kitbasher loves it.If the Mk2 are brought back, this half-helmet concept should return in plastic. It has already been done for Mk4 in resin (see profile pic), surely it can be done again? Yeah its a great one, isn't it? Have used both of mine from the Legion Tank Crew set I got when it was LCTB now. Think there is a half-helm / rebreather head in the new MK VI kit by the looks of it though.
