Kerrigan Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 I have been painting Ultramarines for about two, three years now, but Chaos and my Nids won most of my time. But I have a few units already done. Here's an assault squad I have almost finished. http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/Fast%20Attack/DSC03431.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/Fast%20Attack/DSC03445.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/Fast%20Attack/DSC03460.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/Fast%20Attack/DSC03462.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/Fast%20Attack/DSC03466.jpg And a Chaplain to accompany them: http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/HQ/DSC03420.jpghttp://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/HQ/DSC03456.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/HQ/DSC03442.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/HQ/DSC03451.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 V ery nice. Loving the bases, especially the chaplains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nephilim Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Two thoughts... One: Your models are excellently done. Two: I love TLOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathar the great Posted December 15, 2009 Share Posted December 15, 2009 Two: I love TLOS. Isn't it a shame that putting time and effort into making your bases stand out is not rewarded but actually penalized? ;) I do like those a lot, even though they are smurfs. But they can't rival your Chaos stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerrigan Posted December 16, 2009 Author Share Posted December 16, 2009 About the TLOS, I always agree upfront about the size of my models. Sure they can hide beside a rhino, even if they are "way up there". Why should you limit your modelling adventures just because it would nerve you in the game. That's just stupid IMHO. If you can't see me, I can't see and target you. It works both ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShinyRhino Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 Good stuff. How do you keep from breaking them in transport? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree completely. In my league though, there is an asshat that makes playing the game very unfun. I stopped playing with my daemon prince that I had converted back in 4th edition. There are more than a few that I swear play the game to ruin it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerrigan Posted December 17, 2009 Author Share Posted December 17, 2009 @ Shiny Rhino: GW has some foam trays with larger cavities (two instead of one) Most assault marines will fit there perfectly. As for the Chaplain, I put the model and the nid in separate places, the rod just presses in between. No problem. @ The Nephilim: I guess those gamers who play by the rules to win are more players than modellers/painters. It's sad, but then again, I don't like playing against non painted armies.

Kerrigan Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 ForgeWorld dreadnought drop pod in the making http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/Drop%20pods/DSC00424.jpg I read in a forum that the small pins/bumbs which make the hinges of the doors, snap easily. So I decided to pin the doors. But that way they can't lift to get the doors to open and close, so I had to make it higher. Also, magnets had to be put in. Because if the heavy doors fall open, it causes some force on the hinges. The weak resin might break. http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/Drop%20pods/DSC00425.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/Drop%20pods/DSC00431.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/Drop%20pods/DSC00427.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/Drop%20pods/DSC00430.jpg To make things a little more decorated inside: http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/Drop%20pods/DSC00429-1.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/Drop%20pods/DSC00428-1.jpg More soon.

Making it straight didn't go as well as I'd hoped. Oh, well, warped coming in through orbit... http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/Drop%20pods/DSC00605.jpg http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/Drop%20pods/DSC00587.jpg Dreadnought base http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e111/raphaeloudsen/Ultramarines/Drop%20pods/DSC00592.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
