Rizara Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 WOW nice looking fists so far. I love seeing WIP army threads, helps to keep me motivated as well seeing armies form. As for your plans however, i don't want to burst your bubble too bad, but you need more tacs marines unfortantely. Reason being is you can't field a 5 man unit now with an special weapon in it. It really sucks because i too would love to do that, as well as being able to field two special weapons in unit. I look forward to watching this thread now, as i love seeing progress. I am working on my marines and i keep losing motivation to finishing them, so threads like this really help.

SHAS'O SamadhiRaver Posted July 25, 2009 Author Share Posted July 25, 2009 ok new expanded list is worked out 2x 10 man tac squads with a melta and ML 2x 5 man dev squads 4x ML and a pf on the sarg a 5 man termy unit with assultcannon a dred with assultcannon a ven dred with assultcannon and flamer in a drop pod (for scareing the hell out of people ;) ) a 5 man assultsquad with PF on the sarg and the assult pack chapplin for 1505 points the idea is to be compact enough to use the cover to great effect and keep some strong back up plans workibal witch is what the chapplin and assult squads are for and and you have to love droping a ven dred on people and lighting them up i am working on painting somting right now and should have it posted later tonight and the conversion for the ven dred is underway i just dont like the mettal one GW has out so i am doing somthing similar but just for my fist army B) edit: i gess i should add a new pic of the army mind you the ven dred is very WIP nothing is evan glued in place and most of the work has not ben done also the drop pod needs to be changed a bit to make it imperial fist and not blacktemplars http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v670/Samadhi/imperialfist001.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/173872-imperial-fists-army-wip/#findComment-2060534 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHAS'O SamadhiRaver Posted July 25, 2009 Author Share Posted July 25, 2009 ok first off the days work http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v670/Samadhi/dev.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v670/Samadhi/dev1.jpg not to bad he still needs a few things but the base is done minus the grass and his base armer is finished i need to decide how i am painting the ML still and finish the other odds and ends. i figure i should post some things not for the curent army but that i had painted wile learning to paint imperial fists http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v670/Samadhi/librarian.jpg and yes i know that librairans should be all blue with the chapter shoulderpad but i never really liked that and i figger the imperial fists might be a bit resistant to some of the teachings of the index so they might just let there people sport the chapter's armer eather way he was the first yellow i had painted and i decided he was a bit to bright so i started darker after this fig and never let my self get this bright agaion http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v670/Samadhi/wirlwind.jpg this was to teach my self to paint yellow in a very smouth flat manner i still need to highlight it and shadow it a bit but the idea was to get the base to be as good as possibal oo and the WW part pops off and i can put the hatch on it to use as a rino if needed http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v670/Samadhi/dred.jpg i was experimenting with white primer with this one and one day i will finish it but not any time soon Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/173872-imperial-fists-army-wip/#findComment-2060633 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHAS'O SamadhiRaver Posted August 12, 2009 Author Share Posted August 12, 2009 alot of work done the army is more then half finished. i compleated the whole blacktemplars squad and another fist termanater so all i have left is the drop pod the ven dred, assult squad and 9 devastators oo and the last 3 from the fist squad. if only the local craft store had dullcoat left i could seal the figs i just got done o well hear is a shot of most of the army as it stands right now. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v670/Samadhi/imperialfist006-1.jpg oo and i got a chance to try out the citadel spray gun. it is ok i gess but i would have ben just as well off finding a spraycan of a paint shade that was close to what i use now and it would have ben alot cheaper o well you live and learn i gess.

dood515 Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 It's interesting but it's not a hen, ugh i mean... yellow - i mean it's a very cream looking colour and some of the later pictures look gold, that might not be the case, it could just be the pictures.

SHAS'O SamadhiRaver Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 i kinda get why you think they look creamie. i have yet to really work out how to take good pics and i do very little editing of them when i have taken them (i shrink them 50% and crop that is it) also i dont have a good daylight bulb so the light its self it a bit yellow i should try in daylight. also my highest "hightlight" is iyanden darksun i find most imperial fists come up really bright and i was never a fan so when i set out to paint my force i decided they should be much darker and have no edgehighlighting insted i am makeing sure the depth of the armer stand out a little more with the wash of ogrin flesh the redish brown helps tie the yellw to the red in the moddle and also provides some nice lowlights. any way my fault on the bad pics i will try to correct them when i get a chance Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/173872-imperial-fists-army-wip/#findComment-2102234 Share on other sites More sharing options...
