Desert Eagle Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Hi lads, Sorry i’m one of the quiet ones. I’m still alive and all that. Ferrus shouldn’t worry, I intend to have an artic lion done in time. I had planned for it to be a gb entry, but most likely it won’t be done until the end of the swap. I’ll still try and do my best for it tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Cambrius Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 can some one explain what this is please because i dont get this Basically once every year, we put together a DIY Chapter swap between members, whom must then build and paint a minature in the colours and style of the chapter they were chosen to do. Good to see some action and noise from some more guys. :tu: Cambrius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Anvilus Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I'm still aive, but I haven't painted for about 2 weeks, life having come up several times :) But I assure you, it will be done! B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave the Twisted Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Just to show I'm not dead, here is the tacked together WIP of a champion from Rindarus' Aesir Knights. I'll paint him up with more of the tactical marine scheme most likely. http://www.digitalequinox.com/wip/40k/marines/swapwip01.jpg He WILL be finished by the deadline, but he still has a few things in line before him. (dreadnought, epic commission, then him) Just curious, do you know if models with that style of aquila are still available from GW? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferrus Manus Posted December 20, 2009 Author Share Posted December 20, 2009 Well, due to illness on friday and a busy weekend at a wedding I didn't get round to the PMs. Will do so tomorrow if any project members haven't posted any progress/haven't given an update post like some of the above. As incentive to finish anyone have any ideas for a forfeit? Such as having to submit a Librarium Article, or along those lines? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think only in the Space Wolf box set, not seen it anywhere else. Cambrius They are, sort of. The Space Wolf torsos have a similar chest ornament, but with a rhomboid gem, rather than an ovoid one, but I think that all of the chests featuring that ornament have some other adornments that you'd need to trim/scrape/file away if you didn't want to keep that Wolfy look. Some of the older models that have that round-gem ornament are still on the GW website, though they are the older sculpts like the one Vaaish is using. (I'm a total sucker for that generation of Space Marines, too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shiodome Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 just a note to say i've not forgotten, i've finished all the greenstuffing and undercoated. but honestly, i've just been waiting for a 'painting mood' to overcome me. for me painting when i'm not in that frame of mind is just a chore, i tend to wait for a burst of enthusiasm and go into a frenzy painting EVERYTHING. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferrus Manus Posted January 4, 2010 Author Share Posted January 4, 2010 An update of sorts from me. I've been busy building up a Guard army lately and to add to that I've run out of black spray. So this week I'll base the model and then buy the spray this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Argent Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 And Voila! Dark Brotherhoods Dark Brotherhood. I must say that it looks better in RL (I know, massive cliche, but I swear it does.) I'm mostly happy with this. Only a few irks, the white, the white and, mostly the white... So to explain the model: A Blind Librarian, whom lead the Dark Brotherhood, stands atop a piece of Imperial rubble on an icy world, the Dark Brotherhoods possible homeworld. A dead Emperor's Children marine lays coverd in a frosty rime, another nod to the Homeworlds history as well as the Chapters victory of a Keeper of Secrets in the Labrynth. All the marines armour is the older mark, as per the Chapters Description. The Marines have a "Greek Key" style pattern on their armour and on the Librarians robe, as the Chapter is inspired by the Greek legend of the Labrynth. As finally the marines are organised to loosly resemble the piece of artwork that inspired the Dark Brotherhoods creation. I hope it suits your image of the Dark Brotherhood, DB. It was alot of fun making it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Thanks for the reminder :) . I'll start the model this coming week. Khrangar Good to know! ^^ I'll be finished with building mine this week and throw some paint on it as soon as possible. @silverphoenix: From what I can see it looks really good! Do you have a camera with a macro mode? That, and some better lightning would really help showing the fine details of your work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Argent Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I've been meaning to have a close look at one of the photo taking tutorial thingies on this site. Unfortunately my camera is designed for landscape photographing as I run a landscaping business and its a work camera, kinda. Been meaning t oget a better one for close ups.

Vaaish Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I've run into some uncooperative weather up here that's prevented me from doing any painting the past two weeks. It's putting me quite a bit behind schedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AAAAAARGGGGH!!! :huh: I'm not going to make it :( I need that bitz order preeeety soon... Arenis Man I know that ARGH feeling. I've hit a bit of a wall working on the marine for Reyner. I guess that's what I get for opting to build a truescaled Terminator Captain, and deciding to make up my own way to truescale a Terminator. :\ If I don't make some headway in the next few days, I'll probably abandon the truescaled Terminator and just build a PA Captain.
