Dark Brotherhood Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Good job, everyone who made progress and posted updates! I myself am moving like molasses. I have truescaled (mega-man stlye) two test marines. Fear my speed! Next up is psuedo-scaling the rest of the squad, while getting these painted up.

Zopha Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 I've been sticking small updates in my blog but so far I've basecoated and half assembled 4 marines, a Razorback and Dread. Hopefully this month I can get some paints on them :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/128469-call-of-the-imperium-mkii/page/4/#findComment-1511797 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Brotherhood Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 @Dark Brotherhood The true scale marine looks nice but is that the taint of Khorne i see!? :D And do you have a pic with a normal marine as a comparison? Medusa Yes, the taint creeps slowly. This force is going to be Tiger Claws, around the Badab Era, before they became Red Corsairs. I am trying to build them all with no Aquila, and that torso looks so "gnarly". I will try to post a size comparison pic soon. And @ Commander and Rubberduck: Wow, great marines. They look really clean. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/128469-call-of-the-imperium-mkii/page/4/#findComment-1512314 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merkava Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Okay guys, my ADD has kicked in and I've been distracted by my 2000 pts of Vostroyans (mainly building them to play a game). I think I need the forum equivilant of a kick in the butt to start up again! I think I shot my foot in trying to assembly line the whole hundred. I got all the way up to painting the shoulder guard rims but have petered out painting the boltgun metal parts (ie. cables, mouth vents, etc.) I think I should still do assembly line but keep it at the squad level.

CDR Grendelwulf Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 In honour of my pledge, here is my first report... Here I am at Zero Hour! It begins. This is my "before" picture... http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f317/BackroomWorkshop/WIP/GC_000.jpg Current Progress: 1. sprues washed........DONE 2. bitz separated.........UNFINISHED 3. flash removed.........UNFINISHED 4. models assembled...UNFINISHED No excuse. I simply didn't allow time the past few days for my planned prep-work and wasted time on other things (Damn Slaanesh!) Today, I spent most of my time at the veterinary for this lil' guy... http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f317/BackroomWorkshop/WIP/KWITD1.jpg My kitty-watcher-in-the-dark took ill (Damn Nurgle!) and he needed immediate attention. And if I had dared take any sprues with me for passing the time while I waited in the vet's office, my wife would have made sure I would be the one needing immediate medical attention (Damn Khorne!). The next kicker was that it must have been dog-day at the vet's (Damn Space-Puppies!) as I had the only cat (and the only truly well-behaved animal there). Me thinks some force is manipulating events around me (Damn Tzeentch!). So-o-o, now that I'm back home it's removal & trimming. Square one, but I am doing it! Bye for now...

The Angelus Sanctus Posted March 16, 2008 Author Share Posted March 16, 2008 Clearly the Chaos Gods are out to get your Grendel :wub: Although i don't know how the Pups fit into the whole Pantheon... Unless we can come to a conclusion it was the hand of Slaanesh involved, bringing in the whole taboo sensation feel into your adventure.

Hasoroth Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Clearly the Chaos Gods are out to get your Grendel :P Although i don't know how the Pups fit into the whole Pantheon... Unless we can come to a conclusion it was the hand of Slaanesh involved, bringing in the whole taboo sensation feel into your adventure. My head hurts now :P Anyway, cash in hand, I am proceeding to pick up brushes, paints, and an Assault Marines pack tomorrow. I've experimented (thats what she said) with some color ratios and 2:1 Dark Angels Green to Salamander Green gives me the closest to the Subjugators color scheme (as depicted in IA IV) so I'll be picking up some extra pots of paint too. I'll get some pictures up when I prime Squad Storn.

The Angelus Sanctus Posted March 16, 2008 Author Share Posted March 16, 2008 Actually i re-read Grendel's post and ALL FOUR Gods were involved at some point in time! Clearly they are opposed to this venture of yours. I still don't know how the Space Wolves fit into this :P Might be the whole DA/SW fued aspect coming into play. Clearly these are all good omens!

Kaleb Daark Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I gotta resign from the call of the imperium Actually I'm :( with gold for now and I´ve got my dark project to work on, combined with my job, that doesn´t leave enough time to get the 1000 pts of Custodes finished (for now of course) ^_^ Sorry -_- Ju Kaleb Daark Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/128469-call-of-the-imperium-mkii/page/4/#findComment-1521727 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Angelus Sanctus Posted March 18, 2008 Author Share Posted March 18, 2008 A shame to hear Kaleb, however i'll keep your list in the thread (in the event, that you may have time to come back to it in the future, after all, still about 10 odd months left). ^_^ If you can return to the Custodes, that would be great, if you can't, no harm done.
