Twin .44 Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Hey there all! Some of you may have noticed in my WIP of a full battle company being done for the Call of the Imperium. As many seem to have demanded, I am now putting up full group photos (with a decent camera!) of my three months of dedication. I know they aren't the greatest paint jobs out there, but I think they aren't too bad for 106 marines along with 9 vehicles done in under three months! And Some photos might not be that great. Was in a rush because all the other 40K folks were showing up for games and I just showed up to take these pics. Well, enough yammering, here it is! http://i828.photobucket.com/albums/zz206/40kphotos/DSC00460.jpg http://i828.photobucket.com/albums/zz206/40kphotos/DSC00461.jpg http://i828.photobucket.com/albums/zz206/40kphotos/DSC00462.jpg http://i828.photobucket.com/albums/zz206/40kphotos/DSC00463.jpg http://i828.photobucket.com/albums/zz206/40kphotos/DSC00464.jpg http://i828.photobucket.com/albums/zz206/40kphotos/DSC00465.jpg http://i828.photobucket.com/albums/zz206/40kphotos/DSC00466.jpg http://i828.photobucket.com/albums/zz206/40kphotos/DSC00467.jpg http://i828.photobucket.com/albums/zz206/40kphotos/DSC00468.jpg http://i828.photobucket.com/albums/zz206/40kphotos/DSC00469.jpg http://i828.photobucket.com/albums/zz206/40kphotos/DSC00470.jpg http://i828.photobucket.com/albums/zz206/40kphotos/DSC00471.jpg http://i828.photobucket.com/albums/zz206/40kphotos/DSC00472.jpg http://i828.photobucket.com/albums/zz206/40kphotos/DSC00473.jpg http://i828.photobucket.com/albums/zz206/40kphotos/DSC00474.jpg http://i828.photobucket.com/albums/zz206/40kphotos/DSC00475.jpg To view close ups and the entire company, see here.

Twin .44 Posted July 10, 2009 Author Share Posted July 10, 2009 Beautiful army mate. Very crisp, looks awesome on the table top. You should be very proud of them I am proud of them in fact. for how fast I did them and the fact that I did what many people couldn't, I couldn't help but feel a strange sense of accomplishment, thank you. wow... that is just huge..... ;) nice going there cheers atin Thanks. Saddest part is that isn't everything :tu: Still have a sternguard squad, two more tacticals, another captain, a dread, drop pod, another rhino, two wirlwinds and a Vindicator. I've also got a small blood angels force (Chaplain, mephiston, captain, assault squad, tactical squad), two GK squads, a GK terminator squad, GK Land Raider (To be built), and countless other stuff on my desk to be painted. I even just sold my entire Black Templar force of about 2500 points :devil: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/173032-three-month-crimson-fists-battle-company/#findComment-2045902 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vel'Cona Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Great looking battle company! The paint scheme is uniform, and the weathering/battle damage effects on the vehicles are quite nice. I think doing some pics of them set up in an organised rank and file (per the battle company pic in C:SM) would be a really sweet shot! Considering this was done in only three months, I'd call this project a resounding success.

Twin .44 Posted July 10, 2009 Author Share Posted July 10, 2009 Great looking battle company! The paint scheme is uniform, and the weathering/battle damage effects on the vehicles are quite nice. I think doing some pics of them set up in an organised rank and file (per the battle company pic in C:SM) would be a really sweet shot! Considering this was done in only three months, I'd call this project a resounding success. I thought about copying that shot, but as I started placing the terrain and the models, it kinda started to shape itself around with the hard hitters moving in the front the multi-purpose tactical following up behind, and the big guns holding out in the back. The tanks I kind of went for a "Battle training damage" with minor scrapes and bullets tinging off. not only that, it's extremely quick to do. And I call it a success as well. As stated before, it's not bad at all for such a short period of time. Freakin' awesome .44! Just Freakin' awesome! Why thank you sgtNACHO! stuff like that is what really drove this project forward. Impressive... Now make another one! I NEED A BREAK OF SOME KIND!!!!! besides, the Crimson Fists don't really have 2 companies. that have about one full one and a bunch of beaten and broken ones.....

Twin .44 Posted July 10, 2009 Author Share Posted July 10, 2009 Then make a bunch of beaten and broken ones... Actually in the planetstrike book they have to whole composition and I have a thread dedicated to it for that exact purpose (But now we have to look at it about a decade after the rynns world incident). so yes, I do plan on continuing with the chapter. next up is my ten customized sternguard units.

Hexenes Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 Very nice! Makes me jealous, thinking about all the unpainted, partially painted, and old "crappily painted that need to be stripped and repainted" marines I have. Kudos to you and your Herculean determination!
