Starblayde Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm1/Starblayde/GW/AEBadge-1.gifANGELS ETERNAL - PAINTING LOG The Index Astartes is under way here, and the fiction - just one post of a story at the moment - is here. The actual minis are destined for this post right here! C&Cs very much welcome, of course. My new collection of marines (having collected Blood Angels and DIY Chapters previously with little skill) consists purely of the Space Hulk Termies. So, without further ado, my I present the Angels Eternal versions of Brother Dieno and Brother Scipio: http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm1/Starblayde/GW/DeinoFront.jpghttp://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm1/Starblayde/GW/DienoBack.jpg http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm1/Starblayde/GW/ScipioFront.jpghttp://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm1/Starblayde/GW/ScipioBack.jpg They need a highlight to the purple, as well as a wash on the oaths before some lettering and a general base tidy-up. Definitely more to come if I can bring myself to mix Liche Purple and Chaos Black in quantities large enough to put the first coat on the rest of the squad!

Starblayde Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 About time for an update, I think, as all my SH Termies have at least one coat of something over each bit of them, before the washes and highlights and such come. Where they're still with white undercoat I've either i) forgotten to do that bit or ii) not decided yet. So, here we go: All the boys, bar Sergeants & Librarian, together. http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm1/Starblayde/GW/SHLineup.jpg And the guys who get paid a little more are coming along nicely, too. http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm1/Starblayde/GW/SHLibrarian.jpghttp://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm1/Starblayde/GW/Lorenzo.jpghttp://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm1/Starblayde/GW/Gideon.jpg Oh, and something random thrown in too, a (out of focus) Mephiston and Tycho WIP, as well as the BA commander old Tycho model who led my Blood Angels throughout the nineties and has suffered quite a lot of 'battle damage' over the last decade: http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm1/Starblayde/GW/BACommand.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/179470-the-angels-eternal-come-to-life/#findComment-2136454 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starblayde Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 Are you sure these guys aren't the Emperor's Pointy Sticks in disguise? By the Emperor's Similar Colour Scheme! The red is only for the Crux Terminatus and the blood drops. Honest. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/179470-the-angels-eternal-come-to-life/#findComment-2136564 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus Thane Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Love the colorscheme and the quality of the paintjob. Great work! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/179470-the-angels-eternal-come-to-life/#findComment-2138868 Share on other sites More sharing options...

pryor Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I have the exact same colour scheme except I've extended the white on the pauldrons to the casings on the weapons as well. Do you base coat with white or black spray? I base coat with black because I get a better finish on the purple but my white ends up all streaky. I even use the light blue foundation before the white but it's still very streaky. Any suggestions on getting a better finish?

I base coat with black because I get a better finish on the purple but my white ends up all streaky. I even use the light blue foundation before the white but it's still very streaky. Any suggestions on getting a better finish? I use a white undercoat spray, always have done. I have an aversion to using a black undercoat unless it's going to be an almost entirely silver and/or gold model. No idea why, though :huh: For my white areas - perhaps silly as it is when I've already undercoated white - I use Codex Grey, Space Wolves Grey and then finally a coat (or perhaps two if I want pure white) of Skull White to finish. All of which reminds me: my SH termies are 95% complete, while there's a couple of sets of AoBR Marines who are nearing completion too. Must take some pics to post!

Starblayde Posted December 7, 2009 Author Share Posted December 7, 2009 Onwards and upwards with better photography to show (the models) off: The Space Hulk Librarian from earlier, along with a Termie Assault Sergeant - I've got a lot of veterans already! http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm1/Starblayde/GW/LibbyWeb.jpghttp://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm1/Starblayde/GW/ATermWeb.jpg My AoBR Captain has without doubt one of the best, if not the best, paint jobs I've ever put on a miniature. http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm1/Starblayde/GW/CaptWeb.jpg Finally, the only model to have survived both games I've played (being the sole remaining Angel Eternal in Game 1 and having survived to the end of Game 2 with only a lone Missile Launcher marine for company by the end of it) comes a Dreadnought with a banner as some decoration to show how fabulous (relatively) he's been in-game. http://i292.photobucket.com/albums/mm1/Starblayde/GW/DreadWeb.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/179470-the-angels-eternal-come-to-life/#findComment-2207986 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Black Watch Posted December 10, 2009 Share Posted December 10, 2009 Another believer in the Purple! Kudos. Its probably the rarest colour for SM's. I'm working on my own darker scheme pics will soon follow. Good job though sir!
