shaw3029 Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 Cheers guys! Coopervisor. They are from the GW pack that Ludovic has kindly provided. Areakyus. That is exactly right. I boil a kettle to get the water very hot. Makes it alot easier than just hot water from the tap. Give it a go and send me a link yo your results. Good luck! The Thunder Hammer and Storm Shield Terminators along with Lysander are done! http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/TerminatorsPreAndPostWeathering.jpg Pre and Post Weathering. Going from Cheesy Cartoon Terminators to Battle Hard Veterans. :D Close Ups to follow this evening.

Biohazard Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Fantastic looking Fists and thank you for the tutorial. How long roughly do you have to melt/wash the hairspray back? Can this technique be used without an airbrush?

Dosjetka Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Thanks for the before/after shots, really shows what a difference your technique makes. Just a quick question (and apologies if you've already replied to this earlier on in the thread): what paints do you use for your yellow?

shaw3029 Posted October 2, 2012 Author Share Posted October 2, 2012 BioHazard. I have not tried it without a airbrush but I imagine it could work. I have not experimented with the time you can leave the colour on for but I only do one model at a time. Ludovic. I used Iyanden Darksun and then mixed in Sunburst yellow. As promised here are the Closeups http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/TerminatorTHSS4.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/TerminatorTHSS2.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/TerminatorTHSS1.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/TerminatorTHSS5.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/TerminatorTHSS3.jpg I shall get some close ups of Lysander soon.

Daemon2027 Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 You need to get that Land Raider to a car wash mate. It will proper rust. Brilliant work though, I'm definately going to try your weathering technique a go. Best Lysander I have seen.

shaw3029 Posted October 12, 2012 Author Share Posted October 12, 2012 Thanks again guys! Give the weathering a go Demon just make sure you post some photos. I took a few more photos today of the Landraider and will get some army shots and a couple shots of the Legion Vexilla conversions that I have done but for now heres a few Landraider shots. I probably took a few to many. http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/ArmouredLandRaiderProteus14.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/ArmouredLandRaiderProteus15.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/ArmouredLandRaiderProteus1.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/ArmouredLandRaiderProteus8.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/ArmouredLandRaiderProteus9.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/ArmouredLandRaiderProteus10.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/ArmouredLandRaiderProteus11.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/ArmouredLandRaiderProteus12.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/ArmouredLandRaiderProteus13.jpg Hope you like.

shaw3029 Posted October 13, 2012 Author Share Posted October 13, 2012 As promised here is the army shot. http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/ArmyShotWIPOctober.jpg And the Legion Vexilla for the two tactical squads who are basically standard bearers. http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/LegionVexilla2.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/LegionVexilla1.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/169850-pre-heresy-imperial-fist-army/page/12/#findComment-3207259 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 I really like the idea of having two squad standard bearers. Really looks good ;) Where did you get that first banner from? Would it be an SoB banner? Also, loving the look of the whole army. It's making me even more confused as to which Chapter I should finally settle down with to paint... Not your fault, but highly infuriating anyhow :) Ludovic Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/169850-pre-heresy-imperial-fist-army/page/12/#findComment-3207298 Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaw3029 Posted October 17, 2012 Author Share Posted October 17, 2012 Cheers Ludovic. I cannot remember where any of the banners came from. I've had them saved in a box for years. I only have one banner in each squad to represent the upgrade option in Betrayal in plain 40k he will just be a bolter marine. Here we go! http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/RhinosFinishedup1.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/RhinosFinishedup2.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/RhinosFinishedup3.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/RhinosFinishedup4.jpg http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/RhinosFinishedup5.jpg And the pair together. http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/RhinosFinishedup6.jpg I am currently working on the three Vindicators.

shaw3029 Posted October 18, 2012 Author Share Posted October 18, 2012 Thanks so much guys. Jeremy. That makes me feel better as I was worried that these didnt look realistic. That is exactly what I need to here! Here is a WiP shot of the three vindicators, http://i100.photobucket.com/albums/m40/shaw3029/Pre%20heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/VindicatorSquadronPIP1.jpg I did plan to get them finished tomorrow but I have been distracted by making Flames of War scenery as I am playing a game tomorrow. But I will definitely have them finished next week. Cheers!
