aNex88 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 Guess I'll be updating my progress on the LPC here. Those that frequent my Battle Company thread will be linked every once in a while to new stuff here. Verbal post for this first one, as I've left my models at work again and won't be getting my hands back on them until tomorrow...again... ++Assault Terminators++ Sprayed my white undercoat on them today/yesterday and slopped on a couple thin coats of Golden Yellow. However, to my dismay, I've gunked up one of them pretty badly by accident. Good thing is though that I have a spare box of Terminators so a replacement will be provided shortly. ++Tactical Marines++ I've decided to not count any of the marines that I've been working on towards this competition that I've started work on since before the New Year. Going to head to my local GW in the next day or so and purchase a new box of tactical marines. ++Edit++ Just remembered I still have a picture of my Terminators BEFORE they were sprayed. The chests Templar crosses have been filed off and the gaps have been greenstuffed. I'll be painting the arms separate. Also waiting on a set of Imperial Fist shoulder pads from Forge World which should come in a month or so.

aNex88 Posted January 3, 2009 Author Share Posted January 3, 2009 Remembered to bring home my models from work today. Here's what I've got done so far for the LPC ++Assault Terminators++ Started painting them at work today. Painting arms separate. I'll start on them once I get my forgeworld terminator pads in the mail. Not too keen on how the left terminator and middle terminator seem to be in the same pose...I didn't notice that until now...good thing the arms aren't glued on. Problem will be rectified soon enough :( ++Tactical Squad++ Nothing on the tactical squad yet. Won't have a chance to head to my local GW until this coming Monday or Tuesday. Hopefully, I'll obtain them and finish prepping them before the end of the coming week.

blood_raven_240 Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 o.O You do your LPC at work? Dude, what do you work as? :P Call center maybe? Â Anyway, the yellow is looking very good, and I'm looking forward to seeing the progress. :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156302-lpc-5-assault-terminators-and-10-chaos-marines/#findComment-1828106 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shiodome Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 the robed torso's just from the black templar upgrade sprue? how well do the power armour front torso's fit onto terminator armour, never thought of that, just assumed it wouldn't match up.

aNex88 Posted January 3, 2009 Author Share Posted January 3, 2009 @ Shiodome - Yes, the robed torso are just from the black templar sprues. They fit alright but you'll need greenstuff to fill in the gaps. I find that the robes work better because if u center it in the middle, the sides you can just greenstuff in the shape of more robes, rather than armour plates which I have trouble doing. Â @ blood_raven_240 -hahaha I work in a videostore. I'm always working by myself so I can do whatever I want. :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/156302-lpc-5-assault-terminators-and-10-chaos-marines/#findComment-1828613 Share on other sites More sharing options...
aNex88 Posted January 5, 2009 Author Share Posted January 5, 2009 Small update on my assault terminators. I like how the robes turned out. Going to highlight it further by adding a bit of blood red into red gore, same as my Captain. At this rate, I'll finish 1 terminator every 3-4 days.

aNex88 Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 Bought myself a battleforce yesterday. Got some brand new lovely tactical marines to work with. Here's the 10 I'm going to paint for the LPC and where they stand right now. Missile launcher wasn't sprayed because I greenstuffed his armpit today at work and couldn't spray it right away. Another reason was that I ran out of spray...got to run to the store tomorrow and get some. Also got to get some new brushes. I'll probably get the first rough coats of yellow slopped on tomorrow and throw on the inking.

blood_raven_240 Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Nice move, as far as the Battleforce is concerned. Know what'd be cool? A drop pod :) If you have any spare time on your hands, that's my reccomendation to finish of your LPC ;) Â Can we have some close-ups on the Missile Launcher Dude, please?

aNex88 Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 Alright guys, I've finally gotten around to updating my LPC. I've hit quite a snag recently. The 10 marines I've been painting up for the LPC have been "misplaced". With them no where to be found, I've changed my vow from 10 Loyalist marines to 10 Chaos marines from the Alpha Legion. Here's what I got so far. I'm at a loss right now for what/how the Icon of Chaos Glory should be modeled as. I don't think it's a good idea for them to be totting around a giant banner when they're supposed to be a sneaky bunch. Here's a shot of where my Terminators are right now somewhat blurry shot but you get the gist of it. The arms are primed. I'm just going to leave them until I'm done the terminator bodies. Also still waiting on my Forge world pads...if they don't come before the LPC's due date, I'll have to substitute them for regular plastic ones for the mean time. @blood_raven_240 -sadly, I have no close-up pictures of my missile launcher dude but it was a simple conversion. The left arm is a regular bolt pistol arm that I've pinned to the torso and gs'd the armpit to give him a wider shot-range. The metal bolt pistol bit was a random one I found in my bitz box. I believe it was from one of the older SM Veteran's, the MK1 set.

aNex88 Posted January 29, 2009 Author Share Posted January 29, 2009 Some progress on my Alpha Legion marines. AC still WIP. Rest of the marines are only undercoated. 2 done, 8 to go. Still figuring out how to base right now. Thinking of a swampy base, which is why there are voids in the basing right now.

popfenton Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Everything is looking great. You know you've got a good strong yellow when it hurts to look at it lol. I'm really liking your Alpha Legion stuff as well, colors are great and they just look mean.

Namhaft Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 just wondering what colours you used on the armour of those those alpha legionnaires, it looks so cool.

aNex88 Posted March 19, 2009 Author Share Posted March 19, 2009 I started with a 50/50 basecoat of Regal blue and Chaos black. I followed that with a layer of regal blue on it's own. Now I start mixing in some snot green and paint on a gradual transition from blue to green. Finish with Snot and Scorpion mix. Wash it all with Asurmen blue.
