Space hulk Terminators - hoping not to get carried away!

Recommended Posts

On these particular minis the gold is simply shining gold? black ink then mithril silver highlights Antman, a much simpler formula than I usually use , oh apart from the terms which are my usual formula of gold, shining gold, devlan mud wash then mithril/gold highlights

 

Anyhow, who'd have thought it. A little over two weeks ago I was looking at the contents of the SH box thinking I just don't have the time or inspiration to get stuck into that lot, it can go under the table until after Xmas, 'oh, wait a sec, that dude on the throne looks COOL, maybe I will just paint him.....' <roll eyes>

 

This final batch represents the last of some fun painting for me, who knows, even the birth of a Nid army next year! I can now tick another one off the project list and put some quality time into playing the damn game!

 

 

And a few 'in game' shots

Bulldog, even you should know Xenos aren't permitted here! Burn him!

 

Truth is Hubernator it's a training exercise and the stealers are simply marines in rubber suits so I think I should be OK :P

 

Look, got this exclusive footage of one of the BA crew on his lunch break!

Sorry Bulldog but we have to treat all posts/threads the same (no matter how great a paint job they have) so the pure Xenos pics have been removed. Ha on "Sgt. Snackins" though.

Bought a second copy of Hulk a while back as I intend to run some uber games with 8+ players. I had every intention to crimson these new fellas up to match the rest of my main army however, after starting on the Wolf commission I really liked the contrast of the mustard/blue grey so I guess that's why I suddenly ended up with 14 of em!

 

Didn't want to waste much time on these chaps so kept things simple, obvious Angel icons were sliced off and replaced by some little plastic card runes I knocked up. Added a few 'fluffy bits' (courtesy of ebay) here n there. Voila. Instantly recognisable wolves!

 

I also didn't want to faff around with bases either so simply blanked them out as essentially these are gaming pieces and so emphasis stays on the mini itself

 

few pics below, check out the rest of the troops over on Space hulk stuff

 

First 5 here, the other 9 to follow (wasn't a full set as I didnt require another librarian)

First 5 carry the same shoulder icon, figured I would be splitting them into roughly 5 man squads so this will aid quick ID in the heat of battle!

WHHIIIIIIIRRRRRLLLLLL DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA

i really like what you've done with some of the wolf guards' storm bolters , the incorporation of wolf guard 'colours' (?) (yellow AND BLACK, rather than just yellow).

 

i also really like how you've done your yellow, most people tend to either go too bright or too 'mustardy' (?) which isn't as pleasing to the eye but yours is very pleasing to the eye which makes it awesome.

Sigh. Bulldog you make me angry happy and upset. I am angry that I don't have a fraction of your skill, but I love to see the models painted as well as you do. These termies are outstanding as are your crimson ultrawings. And I get upset as you got two boxes of Space Hulk, whilst I got none ;)

Anyway, keep the miniatures coming, you are a constant source of inspiration.

ID

AWESOME

 

I am currently working on these guys too, and ordered the armorcast muzzle flashes.... Nice to see them in place though!

Next step, clip them off their bases and put them on 40mm fenris sulaco/industrial resin bases for me.... sigh... lol

I didn't want to pre-order 2 copies of SH as I am a great believer in giving everyone a fair crack of the whip when it comes to limited edition gear, frankly I think the people who pre-ordered many copies (lets be honest, simply to sell on at an inflated price) screw over the hobby for us true fans ID

 

I bagged my second copy from ebay, floor plans and minis (didn't bother with a few of the term figs and bagged about a dozen extra stealers) from separate sellers and it worked out cheaper than buying a new 'still sealed' copy!

 

Its worth fishing around ID

 

Tutorial: be as awesome as BulldogUK. The end.

 

Seriously great looking minis. Mine are still sadly lacking paint.

 

LOL, first one to deposit £1,000,000 into my paypal account gets me as a permanent fixture to their hobby room <_<

Second set of 5 finished, much the same really, snipped off the promenant Angel icons and replaced with fluffy bits. I opted for complete replacement of the hammer/shield and picked up a set for a couple of quid from ebay. I also seemed to have bought a few clones so rather than have an additional flamer I preferred a standard term and replaced the arm with a metal one from the bits box, the very same terminator donour gave his cyclone launcher towards the Legion Dread...what a star!

Last 4 to follow!

As usual, they are amazing.

 

On the flamer guy, I'm not sure about the red and yellow flame.

40K flamer are supposed to work even under water and in space, so it can't be an oxygene based flame.

It is said that promethium burn by contact with oxygene. A blue flame like butane seems more accurate to me.

What do you think?

I'm thinking if your putting that much thought into playing with your toys your probably gonna need a bigger egg timer :devil:

 

Okay, 'final' 4 finished, same deal really, lots of fluffy bits stuck on to give 'em a little more wolf like appearance.

 

This is it for now, gonna take a week or two off from painting. I have a new 24 inch full Nvidia 3d vision set-up, a pile of unplayed games and I am just gonna chill for a while and catch up, catch you all in a while!

Angels started to get all whiny over not 'being fairly represented' on the game board. In the interest of shutting them up I decided to bag some cheap stealers from ebay and increase the Wolves body count :)

Been taking a little rest from painting lately but I had an urge to paint something a little brighter than usual so Imperial Fists and Hulk seemed to be the most appropriate choice as there is hopefully little chance of me getting carried away and wanting to paint an entire army!

 

Cut a long story short was chuffed to little mint balls when I managed to snag these unpainted converted minis on ebay the other day, makes for some really nice unique models to add to the Hulk collection. I simply added some FW shoulder pads and a little tickle with the paint to the equation

 

Rest of the Hulkster's can be seen here Space Hulk Stuff

Well, I figured no banana coloured Terminators would be truly complete without the big guy himself, Here is Mr Lysander...
