NemFX Posted April 14, 2009 Author Share Posted April 14, 2009 Additional: Apparently by removing jump packs, I have to now give each of my assault squads a rhino. .. Crap. There goes more money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemFX Posted April 15, 2009 Author Share Posted April 15, 2009 I'm going to try and finish one of the three assault squads tomorrow. I have the parts to scratchbuild three rhinos, I just need glue. Ideally I'll get all that tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemFX Posted April 27, 2009 Author Share Posted April 27, 2009 After a week from hell, here's some stuff.. The completed marines so far.. The entire army so far. Proper update tomorrow, if I can get some work done tonight.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
War Angel Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 is it just me or do you still have....14 units to compleet? thought it was 10 to begin with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemFX Posted April 27, 2009 Author Share Posted April 27, 2009 Not 14, just like.. 10 or 11. Harold in the bottom right doesn't count, but he's too awesome not to be in the shot. For clarity: Chapter Master (3x) Assault squad Sternguard Some kind of dread if I have the stuff.. Sniper scouts Shotgun scouts 3 rhinos Dominator (predator) Land speeder (that probably wont ever get used) So.. 9 + 3 rhinos + dread if I have time. Ideally I'll have one unit finished tomorrow.

NemFX Posted April 28, 2009 Author Share Posted April 28, 2009 3 done, they'll be up tomorrow. I lost my list of names so my Fleshtearer marine has no name currently. I also seem to have lost my basing stuff.. The week of hell managed to make casualties from my Enclave army.. Even so, I have one unit done. I should have this thing back on track soon.

NemFX Posted April 29, 2009 Author Share Posted April 29, 2009 Assault squad 1 is done! 015. Yates of the Luna Wolves 017. Blount of the Word Bearers 034. Spaight of the Flesh Tearers SB1. Rutledge of the Sisters of Battle Wasn't sure what shortform to give to Rutledge.. I'm going by very loose chapter numbers for anyone not in the founding 20.. I figure they would give her some other i.d. but I'm not feeling creative right now.. Unit 1 complete! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemFX Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 Apparently someone deleted the pictures from my camera. So I set them all up again and took these: Completed fast attack squad one: Oh, the heraldry.. I can't seem to find my basing materials, so not all of my updates are going to have finished bases. I think I'm just going to do random updates from now on. It should make updating faster. I have a couple scouts on the way and a marine or two.

War Angel Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 im noticeing a trend with the sunglasses, are they painted on or did you make em? is it just the picture or does it seem like the black is just enveloping them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 It looks like you are spending more time on the one shoulder pad than for the rest of the mini all together. So many areas just left primed black makes them look unfinished. And, this is purely personal taste, so feel free to ignore, but nametags on the base never look good.

War Angel Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 i actualy did the name tags on the base thing when i first started my wolves, I undid it because it was a distraction....but im now putting them in the little name/motto tag spot theyve got on some shoulders and such Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemFX Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 Yeah, I'm going to do some of the armour highlights at a later time.. I don't have any fine detail brushes. As for the names.. I like them. I ended up making a name for everyone, so I figured I'd put them on the bases.. I know not everyone likes them, but I think it adds character. Also, yes, the sunglasses are painted on. I was going for extra cool points :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Maybe this is just me, but nametags and sunglasses don't add character and coolness to Space Marines. But this would be a rather useless discussion of personal taste versus personal taste, so I'll stop it there ^^ And you don't really need a fine brush. If you have problems with highlights, just give the black a quick drybrush/overbrush with either grey or boltgun metal. As long as you have problems with real highlighting, this will look okay. Plus it shows you all the wonderful details on your minis and always reminds you of what you still have to paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemFX Posted May 25, 2009 Author Share Posted May 25, 2009 Sorry for the lack of updates, I have been working on them, but I have no idea where the camera cord went. I'm going to spend as much of tomorrow looking for it as I can. I'd rather not get disqualified from the CotI3 because of it. Unfortunately, it's the only cord for the camera. I've tried looking in stores for a replacement, but it seems they only come with the cameras themselves. I have around 4 finished marines and 3 finished scouts.

War Angel Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 was wondering what happened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemFX Posted May 27, 2009 Author Share Posted May 27, 2009 All is not lost. Ideally an update tonight or tomorrow. I have to do the chapter symbols still on the marines, I thought I finished those. Oh well. FYI for the curious, there's a reason why the Enclave have sunglasses on. It'll be explained in the fluff once all the paint dries.

War Angel Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 i noticed youve got sisters of battle, but there not really a chapter, there an organization, just like space marines are more of an organization than a chapter. which leads to the question, which chapter of sister's is rutledge?

They used to have a couple of different factions, and they were visually different because of the colours used for the fleur-de-lis and it's background.. I can't remember what was what.. But I'm going to have at least two more. I'm trying to find the older symbols right now actually :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
