gettothegone Posted June 7, 2009 Author Share Posted June 7, 2009 Yeah I will be. I have one done right now but I haven't put red in my airbrush to do anything else at the moment. I have ideas for them, but they require a bit of masking prior to putting the paint to them.

Vindictus Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 So very nice. You troopers are great, but obviously, it's your vehicles which really make this army stand out. Awesome job!!

gettothegone Posted June 7, 2009 Author Share Posted June 7, 2009 Let me get some closeup shots of the squaddies, they have the same weathering on them too :) Well some... the tacticals do, the sternguard don't as they're assumed to be fresh from the ship.

fwf_cypher Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 looks great! just wondering how it plays for ya? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/169420-got-fist/page/2/#findComment-2016127 Share on other sites More sharing options...
gettothegone Posted June 9, 2009 Author Share Posted June 9, 2009 From a fun aspect, I enjoy it a lot. The nice thing is, that the Sternguard are very similar to my tactical squads, so they can double up with some extra special weapons for more tactical goodness. From a hard tournament aspect, I need more experience playing marines before I can really let you know how they'll do competitively. There's many other items in this army that need to be finished as well. Some armies I've played against I've tabled in 1 turn due to having a truckload of anti mech. Other faster armies have caused me a world of pain being able to get way too close, way too fast. Librarians should fix this now that they're done. I have yet to play Green Tide, but I'm looking forward to that slugfest. First I want to reward myself with a LRC/Redeemer *magnets...? we'll see how hard that'll be otherwise its a pure LRC*. It should be here this week sometime, I'm really looking forward to painting it. I'll be doing a WIP / on it. Once I hit a real tournament *read full 5 turn 6x4 table tournament* I'll definitely throw bat reps out :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/169420-got-fist/page/2/#findComment-2016191 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vel'Cona Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 I approve of this army, which isn't to say my opinion matters but I feel that this is exactly the way the Adeptus Astartes should be represented: cleanly painted, modestly converted/posed/modelled, with plenty of weathering. It's nice to see not everyone just glues spikes and random bits all over their figs nowadays. Just because I'm playing Salamanders doesn't mean I have to glue Lizardman bits all over my stuff, seriously. :) Ranting aside, the basing is awesome and Pedro in particular is quite nice. Bravo!

Rashia the lurker Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Aint the chaplains both hands supposed to be red, since he is a veteran for the chapter? Just wondering because I've made all my HQ's with both hands red, including all my sergeants. Otherwise you've painted em really nice, just wondering if you use transfers for the hands on the shoulders?

gettothegone Posted July 2, 2009 Author Share Posted July 2, 2009 I kept the hands normal black and did the knee up in red. You could be right about the red handed Chaplain, but if you were a Chaplain, I imagine you could paint whatever you wanted, whatever colour you wanted, and nobody would say much to you anyway ;) The shoulders are all regular transfers yes. Just using some Solvaset on them. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/169420-got-fist/page/2/#findComment-2038263 Share on other sites More sharing options...

yodaid764 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Not all Chaplains have 2 red gloves. Argo in One Hate (from Heroes of the Space Marines) only had one red glove.

gettothegone Posted July 10, 2009 Author Share Posted July 10, 2009 Combi Melta Combi-Melta I just took a quick look. There wasn't any online. I bought mine off a chap in the UK. He was selling a pile of 7, I already had 4. They're rare and hard to come by on ebay since they're in high demand, as well as only available on one sprue :tu: I guess I just got lucky with them. Good luck in your search Legacy40k, hopefully you pick up a few.
