djhg Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Hello all. Joined up since I recently got back into 40k after a break that started out in the early days of 3rd ed. Been playing with my Pink Tugs for a bit and thought I should probably give the Yellow boys a go since they have a nice shiney new codex :pinch: Just took a single photo of a tactical squad to give a general impression of what I am doing with them... Unfortunatly you can't see much of the squad and chapter markings, but i managed to hand paint them, Imperial fist chapter badges look horrible to paint, but I found a way that ismore or less cheating ;) As usual C&C welcome, but keep in mind I painted these guys about a week after I got the 3rd ed box set, so my painting has gone in a few different directions since then. I'll be trying to paint a few more units up in the next month or 2 so I can compare how they turn out later. All pics are hosted at my DA account, so here's a direct link to the Fists Feel free to browse through some of my other galleries to see what other Xenos heresey I get up to when I'm not feeling quite so dedicated to the Emperor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djhg Posted October 16, 2008 Author Share Posted October 16, 2008 I'm watchin you boyy. I certainly hope you have a current stalkers licence. I had problems with the last one being an unregistered stalker ;) I have the first set of AoBR marines together now, and the spraygun will be attained on the weekend. So around then I will start up a WIP thread on how I go about doing stuff <_< Better get the other 4 sets together so I can do everything at once.

OwenCrute Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Decent looking yellow you have there, my advice is to add definition with some brown ink- paint a little line into recesses. (I wanted to say "mate" but I'm not English, so I decided against it =-D ) What about us Aussies then eh? check these IF's out by AlexCrute you may get some tips from his quick scheme Hehe, good to see my brother getting mentioned. Looks like he's making quite an impression ^^ (I helped with some of those Fists. The worse ones are probably mine, heh.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
