Basilius Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 I am increasingly tempted to sell my soul to Chaos with my next project. I thought that I would give the Iron Warriors a whirl. For the real army I would use GW sculpted shoulder pads - hate hate hate decals. This is also my first attempt at blood spatter. This is an example wof what I would be doing for my "counts as Khorne Bezerkers" "Line-Breakers" in my army. Its still WIP and I have some touching up and tweaking to do. C&C would be most welcome.

hendrik Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 nice work mate;) how will they be based? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basilius Posted May 24, 2009 Author Share Posted May 24, 2009 I am looking at some industrial patterned resin bases from Dragon Forge (I think) - the link is on my work machine. I batch painted and somewhat rushed my Guardians at times, so I am looking to take my time a lot more with whatever I do next, which is almost certainly going to be Chaos, and most probably the IW.

DuskRaider Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 Very nice, if you do an army in this scheme you'd definitely find a fan in me! Now when you talk about the sculpted pads, are you looking at the Silver Skulls pads? I think those would be great for a force. I'd also HIGHLY recommend Dragon Forge for bases. Great product and the cost is also really easy on the wallet, especially in bulk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basilius Posted June 13, 2009 Author Share Posted June 13, 2009 Thanks for the replies. Still tinkering with my "next project" ideas... its a toss up between Iron Warriors, A Ordos Xenos list using the C:SM, and possibly dipping my toe into a small Eldar army for variance... not 100% committed as yet :unsure: Wish I had the £ and time to do all 3!

Dragonkin Arenis Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 I like your base model, looking good! :) And go for IW! IW! IW! It's always a pleasure to see an Iron Warriors force, even if they are Traitors *charges both Plasma Pistols* aaaanyway, waiting impatiently for more ^_^ Arenis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaplainmikey Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Thats one awesome Iron warrior. Well painted all round and i love the blood splatters,they look realistic whereas some over-do blood abit. I like the idea for counts as Berzerkers,a line breaker unit sounds like a good idea for any siege army. It's alright pounding the walls with shells but when they go down you need men to charge in and kill. :devil: Hope we'll see an army of these. Cheers, Mike.

blackscarabs Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Dude, really good job man, and can you give details on how you did the blood splatter please and thank you, btw you should choose IW for next WIP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Angel Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Yes great work alaround incuding just the right amount of spater on the arm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basilius Posted June 14, 2009 Author Share Posted June 14, 2009 Wow - thanks for the compliments! Never had that response before on here. Really makes me want to do an IW list now! Rest assured that I will at some point in the next year - thinking about doing a couple of good core 1000 points lists in a variety of armies, and IW is one of them. The splatter was simple really. I read all sorts of tutorials that seemed to complicate it a lot. Red Gore. Heavily diluted. Loaded up on a GW small drybrush. Then "flicked" at the model by pulling the bristles back with the thumb and letting them fall foward towards the models. Requires quite a few "flicks". Then lightly brucj over the more concentrated areas, in this case the teeth of the chainsword and the "tip". Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doghouse Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Looks great mate! I reckon you should definately do an army of these guys! Is the legion badge a transfer or hand painted, it looks really nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basilius Posted June 14, 2009 Author Share Posted June 14, 2009 Its a decal - it looks ok, but I would use metal GW ones for an army of these guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
