im terrible at painting Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 Very nice do you spay it white or black? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160416-black-templar-preadator/#findComment-1882644 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drac0 Posted February 18, 2009 Author Share Posted February 18, 2009 Very nice do you spay it white or black? I sprayed it with Chaos Black. Some updates: Just finished painting some of the metallic parts and gave some weathering as well. Some of the pics might be a bit blurry, still getting used to take pics of minis, but I think I'm getting the hang of it ;) If I have the time tomorrow I'll be painting the white parts and adding the transfers.

SpudWhitman Posted February 18, 2009 Share Posted February 18, 2009 She's coming along nicely. I like the stowage. Where's it all from? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160416-black-templar-preadator/#findComment-1888035 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drac0 Posted February 19, 2009 Author Share Posted February 19, 2009 I got the stowage of a friend, When I'm with him I'll ask you where he got it from.

SpudWhitman Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Thanks Drac0. I figured it couldn't be from an Imperial Guard kit. There's a plethora of military models out there in a a handful of scales, so I've got plenty of options. One can also make bedrolls and stuff from tissue paper and white glue. Regardless, good score from your friend. When I paint a Predator I'm going to seriously consider using gold on the lascannon tips. It looks superb.

Drac0 Posted February 20, 2009 Author Share Posted February 20, 2009 I can say surely that its not GW bitz. Anyway like you said most of those parts can be easily found or made, with green stuff for example. Oh and by the way the lascannon tips aren't gold, they are painted with Dwarf Bronze, which in my opinion its easier to paint and looks better. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160416-black-templar-preadator/#findComment-1889880 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drac0 Posted February 22, 2009 Author Share Posted February 22, 2009 Just posting to apologize for the lack of updates on my Predator. I've been busy with the rest of the army as you can see from the following pics: http://i584.photobucket.com/albums/ss282/Er0-sennin/40k/P2220055.jpg http://i584.photobucket.com/albums/ss282/Er0-sennin/40k/P2220054.jpg as soon as I get the army primed and ready to paint I'll get back to the predator. EDIT: I've been thinking of adding marines on horseback as Bikes, given the crusader fluff and all, what you guys think? Has anyone tried this?

Marshal van Trapp Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 you should make them mechanical horses, i always though marines on mech horses would look awesome Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160416-black-templar-preadator/#findComment-1893303 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drac0 Posted February 22, 2009 Author Share Posted February 22, 2009 I got a few Fantasy horses around I was thinking of using them with some Necron Bitz (if I can get some) or maybe buy the Empire's Engineer Mechanical Warhorse Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160416-black-templar-preadator/#findComment-1893309 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drac0 Posted February 28, 2009 Author Share Posted February 28, 2009 Update time on the predator, again sorry for the delay I've been busy with the rest of the crusade converting, undercoating and so on. Here's what I've done yesterday (I was painting till 4 a.m. lol) http://i584.photobucket.com/albums/ss282/Er0-sennin/40k/P2280056.jpg http://i584.photobucket.com/albums/ss282/Er0-sennin/40k/P2280057.jpg http://i584.photobucket.com/albums/ss282/Er0-sennin/40k/P2280058.jpg I only noticed the mold line when I took the picture, I guess that's what you get for being lazy and painting pre-assembled models -.-' http://i584.photobucket.com/albums/ss282/Er0-sennin/40k/P2280059.jpg That's it for now, I hope you guys like it. Either tomorrow or after I'll be working on it again, painting the white parts and the remaining metalics, then on to the last stage, weathering and battle damage.

daemon*hunter Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Just personal opinion, but i think the eye (ther non bionic one) is to big. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/160416-black-templar-preadator/#findComment-1903667 Share on other sites More sharing options...
