Terminatorinhell Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I like it, did you use the GD2009 mini as the base? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/188634-into-the-maelstrom/page/2/#findComment-2251398 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady_Mournival Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 WHOAH! that is a model that does justice to the Khârn rule set; now you just put him at the head of a mob og berzerkers annd you have a wrecking ball.

Lady_Mournival Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 The hellblade is painted up quite nicely, but it just feels like it's missing something that I just can't put my finger on; anyway good work on the model.

Nikolakhs Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Personally, I love the Khârn, but I know whats missing on the Hellblade: the red is too flat. For an Imperial ship, there would be no problem to that, but I think it needs to be broken up a bit, maybe with some designs in the individual red cells, or freehand, whatever. But, aside from that one little detail, your model is superb. Any chance for a detail pic on the pilot? -Nikolakhs- Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/188634-into-the-maelstrom/page/2/#findComment-2267607 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Laughing God Posted March 10, 2010 Author Share Posted March 10, 2010 A tournament is coming up at the end of April and I want to give it a go with my Chaos. I thought this would be a good opportunity to set a deadline for myself and see if I can paint my list. I plan to use these two daemon princes. I also finally finished the berserker squad. (Standard Bearer still needs paint) Touched up some things on this guy after the picture was taken. http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/345/1005990.jpg http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/7893/1005746.jpg http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/2457/1005747.jpg http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/7486/img0252km.jpg http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/495/img0253w.jpg http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/9445/img0254ig.jpg I have to paint: 10 Man Squad 7 Plague Marines 2 Vindicators 5 Man Chosen Squad Rhino 1 Berserker Standard Bearer 3 Obliterators All in 46 days...

The Laughing God Posted March 12, 2010 Author Share Posted March 12, 2010 Sure thing Brother Ash: 1.) Mechrite Red basecoat 2.) Black line the red with scorched brown 3.) Wash with Baal Red 4.) Highlight with Blood Red 5.) Sharp Highlight with Blazing Orange Tanks do not get the wash because of pooling issues. Not sure if there is anyway I can get around this and so I hoped there wouldn't be to much of a difference. They also get some slight weathering instead.

The Laughing God Posted March 14, 2010 Author Share Posted March 14, 2010 Plague Marines are finished. The old models were really fun to paint. I like them a lot more than the new ones. http://img57.imageshack.us/img57/5193/img0256.jpg http://img391.imageshack.us/img391/4435/img0260k.jpg Not the best of pictures but it gives you an idea.

Mr Fulgrim Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Hey great miniatures, and painting! Are the old plague marines in metal or plastic? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/188634-into-the-maelstrom/page/2/#findComment-2322461 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nihm Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 They are metal iirc. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/188634-into-the-maelstrom/page/2/#findComment-2322465 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prot Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I am not even going to critique this stuff. It's a great looking army, and you've had little motivation in the way of inspiration from other painters.... In fact aside from myself, I don't think I've seen another 'true' Red Corsairs army. Great stuff. You've gone a long way with a difficult colour scheme. Personally I came to love the background of the army, but right from the get go the Chaos Codex had its ... detractors. I hope you're having fun with it. :angry: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/188634-into-the-maelstrom/page/2/#findComment-2322506 Share on other sites More sharing options...
onipunk Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 This is why I hate kids: younger gamers who paint better than I could ever hope for ;) Amazing work, here, you should be proud, and if you keep up this standard and keep improving on it I can see a Golden Demon in your future. Very well done. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/188634-into-the-maelstrom/page/2/#findComment-2323159 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Ash Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Thank you for the red formula. As for the tank washing problem, I would suggest maybe using an airbrush or the GW Spray Gun. Either of those would give you an even coverage of the wash on a flat surface after you've given it a run thru a bit, hope that helps. Oh and love the old school Plague Marines, very well done!

titan136 Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Great work on the plaguebearers. I really love the old models better than the current metal ones. They have that clunky bloated feeling that's only matched by the forgeworld resin kits.

The Laughing God Posted April 7, 2010 Author Share Posted April 7, 2010 Sorry for the lack of updates recently. I have managed to finish some terminators, and I'm still working towards finishing my list for a tournament.

The Laughing God Posted April 13, 2010 Author Share Posted April 13, 2010 Finished the predator and a vindicator this weekend. Pretty happy with the results too, especially the vindicator dozer blade. I already started working on the remaining six marines. They will take the most time. http://img682.imageshack.us/img682/7496/img0341o.jpg http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/3756/img0340pa.jpg http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/6634/img0343ne.jpg http://img338.imageshack.us/img338/5591/img0342a.jpg Cheers, Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/188634-into-the-maelstrom/page/2/#findComment-2359768 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arithon Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 Very nice army and great use of red. Just as a suggestion to try especailly on the larger vechilces (try on something smaller or test first) is a mixture of minieral turps and a tiny amount of brown/ black oil based paint. It is used as a wash and runs well into groves etc giving a miniature more depth. Alot of aircraft and hobbiest use this method. It takes a while to dry and any excess can be wiped off with a larger brush and a bit of turps if required. It works alot better tan normal washes etc and is far more subtle.
