Captain Malachi Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Haha, love these guys, "DOOM" simple and tells the enemy exactly what's going to happen. <_< Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/146767-thousand-swords-3rd-company/page/2/#findComment-1747509 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pulse Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Oh my. I had no idea. In my defense, the T-Swords' symbol is a sword over an "M", as in the Latin numeral for "thousand". The Aryan one appears to be an "N", but there is a disturbing similarity. It's entirely coincidental! Haha Barret on the defensive. <_< Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/146767-thousand-swords-3rd-company/page/2/#findComment-1747551 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CompanyOfTheFallen Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 lol, my chapter has the same name :D Nevertheless i like your conversions. Nice Ideas and good work with GS. (btw. I have 2500 points painted, but I am switching to a true-scale army now^^) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/146767-thousand-swords-3rd-company/page/2/#findComment-1747665 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf89 Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 Nice work can't wait to see them finished. Always nice to see new chapters popping up out of the AOBR boxes, I've seen probably 10+ so far just new made-up chapters and they all look totally different even though they came from the same box, yours is no exception. ;) I totally see the "M" over the "N" in there... no need to be on the defensive, you still don't have a crown on it, not like your avatar has a crown either... :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/146767-thousand-swords-3rd-company/page/2/#findComment-1747669 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barret Posted October 27, 2008 Author Share Posted October 27, 2008 Haha, love these guys, "DOOM" simple and tells the enemy exactly what's going to happen. :P That's the idea! Same with the 6th Squad Marine and the Assault Sergeant, who is probably my favourite right now. CompanyOfTheFallen~ Do you have any pics online? I'd love to see what someone else has done with the same name. :) Wolf89~ Thanks! While these guys aren't brand new - the fluff for them has been around for a couple years, and this is my second go at an army of them - the AoBR box is definitely a great starting point for a new army. I spent Sunday getting almost the entire army basecoated, until my primer ran out halfway through the second Dread and before I could get the last four members of the Assault Squad, and one of the Command Squad. I also finished 6th Squad's Rhino as a tester for my vehicle camo. I'll get some pics up tonight.

El-Diablo Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Its a really nice scheme Barret, my only criticism is (funnily enough) on the red - it looks a little patchy, possibly as a result of a wash. A thin layer of the basecoat (red gore?) on the highest areas of the armour should sort that out a treat.

CompanyOfTheFallen Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 Hello, I have several pics online but in quite bad quality. For example: http://tabletopwelt.de/forum/attachment.ph...mp;d=1211810141 http://tabletopwelt.de/forum/attachment.ph...mp;d=1212681850 http://tabletopwelt.de/forum/attachment.ph...mp;d=1220798816 almost all finished miniatures: http://tabletopwelt.de/forum/showpost.php?...p;postcount=249 The colours have some similarities with the "thousand sons" so I took the name from there. this is the thread in a German forum http://tabletopwelt.de/forum/showthread.php?t=102132 I worte a huge story of the chapter founding etc but I do not like it anymore, so I'll have to write a new one. B) But this is your thread and I am eager to see some progress :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/146767-thousand-swords-3rd-company/page/2/#findComment-1750529 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muskie Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Give me two weeks to fail my CFA exam then I'll paint up a Thousand Sword. Since you've already got a combat squad or two, maybe I'll just build someone cool, like a veteran sargent and give the paint scheme a good going over. I think you need multiple thin coats of paint. It takes longer but you get better results. Go look at how I highlighted red on the Brotherhood of Darkness guy. I don't advice going to orange or yellow in your case, but I think you could get a smoother dark red without needing to do any extreme edge highlighting. http://www.muschamp.ca/OffSite/WIPModels/CSM/BoDFinishedTrim.jpg I'm never going to join the cult of the dry brush. Now for terrain dry brushing works swell. It also works well for fir and chainmail, but I like layering and edge highlighting for power armor.
