ShinyRhino Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Here's my first WIP post for the Call, Mk 3. Just some of the parts of my Rhino I've started on: The interior console: http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/consolewip.jpg The floor plate: http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/floorwip.jpg Driver checking out the situation: http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/gunnerwip.jpg An HK missile launcher (I love these things!): http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/hkwip.jpg More to follow soon...

ShinyRhino Posted April 16, 2009 Author Share Posted April 16, 2009 Looking good! Looks like your skills are getting better. Thanks, guys! The big leap for me with these bits was the blending of the hatch glass. I feel like it came out quite well. I forgot to put the white "hot point" on the top right corners, so I'll have to go back and do that. I'm relly liking how the interior of the Rhino looks as I paint more and more parts of it. It's going to look sweet when completed. If I find the time, I might do a freehand litany or prayer on that door plate of the console. Looks kind bland right now.

Grand Master Tchezzarus Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 First of all I'm not a good painter (far from it). And I will certainly took inspiration from your work (your console look great!) to paint the inside of my GK LR, but if I were you I would use some green ink on all the screen to make them more shiny/look like made of glass.

ShinyRhino Posted May 1, 2009 Author Share Posted May 1, 2009 Second Update I haven't made a ton of progress since my last post. I've been wiped out all this week, too sleepy at night to paint. But, here's what I've accomlished: Here's the interior of the top section: http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/interiortop.jpg Just some basic white interior on the spots that will be visible once it's glued together. No reason to waste paint. The removable stormbolter: http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/strmbolter.jpg And then the hinged top hatches: http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/topdoors.jpg I used the wonderful tutorial in the Librarium to do all my hinging. Ruined a few side doors and top hatches doing it, but was eventually successful. I'll be adding some sort of freehand or symbol on these, just haven't decided what yet. I don't think i have the time or motivation for a mural yet. It'll probably be either a tactical arrow, or a big old Ultramarine symbol. I've also got a basecoat of tan on the inside of one side panel, but you can see that later on when it's more complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShinyRhino Posted May 4, 2009 Author Share Posted May 4, 2009 Third Update I powered through the last two nights, and managed to complete the remainder of my Rhino interior! So, I decided to see how everything looked with a dry-fit... From the rear: http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/dryfit1.jpg Again: http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/dryfit2.jpg And from above: http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/dryfit3.jpg I feel very good about this Rhino. Detailing the interior is very rewarding, and I'm sure it'll make a splash at my local shop, and hopefully on the table. I'll glue it all tomorrow night, and then prime from there.

Veteran Sgt. Valour Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 ShinyRhino - I am loving the way you painted that console black with the green monitors! Great job. I am going to steal that concept for my next rhino! Keep up the good work! Valour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShinyRhino Posted May 4, 2009 Author Share Posted May 4, 2009 Thanks for the kind words, all. I'm really pumped to get this thing done. It'llbe my first new-mark Rhino, and my first model with interior detailing, magnets, and hinged doors! I refurbed an older Razorback/Rhino chassis before, but it really pales in comparison to this one. So much more detail and various gubbins here.

lord_bunny Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 Very clean and tasty, I'm wondering how the doors work though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Irwin Posted May 4, 2009 Share Posted May 4, 2009 I think the driver may have been glued on a little, um, wrong... When using that particular accessory, you glue it from underneath the hatch, not down on top of it. Hopefully you can detach it to correct it, if you feel it’s necessary of course, it is your Rhino obviously; I just thought I’d give you a heads up. Other than that, looking very good, I don’t bother painting my Rhino interiors (as most people will never get to see them), but you have done a really smashing job on that! Keep up the good work! :sweat: Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep up the good work! ;) Steve Heh, "oops". Oh well. He's just a spot filler for now anyways :). Something to fill gaps when I play and haven't painted completely yet, I suppose. I'll have to dry-fit another one and see how the two stack up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShinyRhino Posted May 19, 2009 Author Share Posted May 19, 2009 The Rhino is now complete! Though I might touch up the Ultra symbol on the rear door to make it a little fancier someday. http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/rhino1front1.jpg http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/rhino1rear.jpg http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/rhino1top.jpg http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/rhino1fronthatches.jpg http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/rhino1tophatches.jpg http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/rhino1troops.jpg Next on the block is my counts-as Sicarius: http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/siccywiptorso.jpg http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/siccywiplegs.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muskie Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Green or Gold reath thingies... Is it wreath? Anyway frickin' leaves that is what the Ultras use it is the greek influence and all that. Shouldn't be hard to paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway frickin' leaves that is what the Ultras use it is the greek influence and all that. Shouldn't be hard to paint. Yeah, i was thinking of a laurel wreath or something. The symbol definitely needs some more kick to it. Plain symbols are ok when they're small on shoulderpads or top hatches, but one this big needs more ornamentation.

ShinyRhino Posted May 28, 2009 Author Share Posted May 28, 2009 More progress made! I completed my counts-as Sicarius, who can also stand in as a Chapter Master, Captain, or Librarian. http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/cmdrfront.jpg http://i191.photobucket.com/albums/z43/goalie20/Warhammer%2040K/CoI3/cmdrback.jpg Some of the details get lost in the lighting, but I'm rather proud of his cloak. The blends aren't as stark as they appear. This was my first rty at something akin to wet-blending on a large area, and I feel it came out quite well for a large area. The front of his blade looks nice by my standards, though the back leaves a bit to be desired. I got sick of fudging with it, so it's complete as far as I'm concerned. Gotta move on to other projects, like this bike...
