I'm still half-half on whether he should be Captain Kleave'mor or Claymore

 

any thoughts?

Well, you chose almost all the coolest models that GW currently puts out for 40k. That Vanguard squad makes me shake with fear... Talk about a fire magnet ;)

 

If you paint them all up, I'll say great job and send you a gold star sticker. How about that? :)

Whats a card reader? To figure out the colors you need?

 

And can you tell me which metal models I need to buy in order to make an awesome force like this?

a card reader to read memory card of a digital camera

 

and I bought a box of vanguard, a box of veteran MK2, plus a Jumppack Chappy.

So whens the paint going to be added?

that comes after I get back to Germany, finish my papers, get through the presentations and lab hours.. B)

and wait, also when I can figure someway to post paint..................now Chinese Custom didn't like me shipping little pods with liquids inside.

:D

at Starbuck_: I didnt mean this thread, I meant the one in PCA. B)

 

at TIH: that left arm is some generic bolter arm, though I think you meant the right arm ;)

and that is from the gamesday model.

So...like..a month? =-D Damn those Chinese. Them and their stupid rules and customs. And then they go and build that huge wall... What next?! SHEESH! (don't worry about it, I'm Chinese)

 

Mail the paint home.

I am thinking of buying some paints in Germany, but then, reasons always kick in. oh me :D

 

but I got something grewing while not painting,

I'm de-chaosing Huron into a Emperor's Champion, also a Khrone Lord into Chaplain with two-handed Crozius(awesome part)

i.e filing metals like there is no tomorrow (ugly part).

Intense threadomancy!

I made shamefullly no progress with painting, but had some conversions going along

http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg125/airbenderxiao/champ.jpg

this is on Chapter Champion with TH

http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg125/airbenderxiao/cas.jpg

and a Count as Shrike

 

Now, bothers I have two kind requests to ask

 

1. what should I give him for right hand?

http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg125/airbenderxiao/jph.jpg

2.Which pose looks better?

a:http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg125/airbenderxiao/p1.jpgb:http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg125/airbenderxiao/p2.jpg

They are all looking very nice, though the guy with the heavy bolter type thing ruins it for me. The weapon is just too big. Also as for your decision, I opt for neither. Try to mod the arm so that the bolter looks like it is resting on the waist a bit better, whilst having the bolter held so that some more of the side is facing away from the model, displaying the detail of the weapon better and not breaking the flow of the model.

Hey thanks alot for your c&c, you made a very good point, I will try to bent it somehow.

 

and btw are you by any chance the Terrible Trygon from hive?

Spot on mate. I am indeed the mod you speak of. In case your wondering why I am on a marine forum, I hang around here mostly for the laughs, but sometimes I do post up in the odd thread. I am also, oddly enough, a Chaos Player of both Guard and Marines, so this place has its interests in this regard. And I know, a Chaos Player being a Staff member on a Tyranid forum is weird, but I stay there for the job, even after I stopped collecting Tyranids.

...well after I realized I can never hit any thing with my warriors, I switched to SM too...
