infamousagenda Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Nice stuff! Question do u use just GW purples or do you use other types of purples? Purple has always been a hard color for me to pull off I have to layer so much. Even then I still feel like the stuff I do isnt right, but you seem to pull it off.

The Angelus Sanctus Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Wow very nice painting and converting where did you get the spec head and torso for your panited EC ? Looks like they are the Red Scorpion Kits from Forgeworld that can be found here . The painted model looks great, and the converted stuff is coming out very nicely. Although personally i'm 50/50 for the Chaos Warrior heads on the terminators. Nice work on making the Terminators of the Heresy kind Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/133345-pre-heresy-emperors-children-blog/#findComment-1538919 Share on other sites More sharing options...
guywithareallybigGUN Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Hey, nice painting and modeling :tu: . I just started an Emperor's Children Army about a week or two ago and its going slow, just waiting on the bitz. Cant wait to see how yours turn out. P.S. What color purple did you use? I've painted one guy with liche purple, but I sometimes think it's just a little to dark Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/133345-pre-heresy-emperors-children-blog/#findComment-1540393 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaemonPrinceDargor Posted April 13, 2008 Author Share Posted April 13, 2008 Thanks for all the comments guys!The heads and torsos are indeed from Forge world Red Scorpions kit.The ones that are not,are berzerker heads with the "bunny ears" cut off. :P Small update time,not much painting done since i've got a bucketload of work on my hands,but i did some conversions: Veteran Sergeant Demetrius,1st squad,10th Company http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/5875/sergeant1al9.jpg http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/9324/sergeant2te3.jpg And my version of Saul Tarviz,Captain of the 10th http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/809/saultarvitz1cz0.jpg http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/2763/saultarvitz2ek5.jpg Cheers!

Capt. Kenaz Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 WOW!!! I'm reading Fulgim the HH novel at the moment and let me say your are doing the project at hand justice. The use of the Chapter Master model is a great conversion idea, and the MK IV marines look awesome too.... All of the swords look great, love the idea of long curved blades. How big of an army are you building? Keep up the wing iconography as it suits the pre-heresy EC's best, and draws them all together as a co-hesive unit. GS long hair is also a nice touch.

I mean...woooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah... .....always always always wanted to do a pre-heresy EC force, man they are good brother. The colour is spot on, deep wine purple. Termies look good, the marines click also. Good use of the ForgeWorld bits and bobs too. All in all nice work.

Alpha PTP Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 That is probably one of the simplest, yet very effecting conversion I have seen to date. I really love the purples and golds. They are very eye catching. I cannot wait to see more of your stuff. When do we expect to see more models done? :ph34r: Alpha Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/133345-pre-heresy-emperors-children-blog/#findComment-1580273 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulse Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 That is probably one of the simplest, yet very effecting conversion I have seen to date. I really love the purples and golds.

DaemonPrinceDargor Posted May 26, 2008 Author Share Posted May 26, 2008 The purple on the armour is done thus: 1)A couple of thined coats of Hormagaunt puple on all armour areas,except for the recesses. 2)1 part hormagaunt purple/2 parts Warlock puple/1 part water all over the previous layer. 3)Add white to the previous mix for first stage highlights. 4)Add more white for second stage highlights. Always keep your paint thin with water to get a smooth finish. For the cape i added a part of mordian blue to stage 2 and built up through white for the highlights.A glaze of purple ink was used to blend the highlights. Thanks for all your replies guys!
