Inquisitor Victan Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 That does look incredibly awesome. Was that done freehand? Oh lord, no. I have a template and sprayed it. Did a lot of freehand cleanup on the lines, though. A lot. ;) Whew.. ok, it did look ridiculously straight, that's an awesome idea. Definitely looks like it was worth the effort.

Metal Apostle Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Hot damn! i was just about to start my SoB thread in Hall of Honour when i saw these! As many have already pointed out, that aquila across rhinos is a real inspiration. Also loving the way the sisters flesh tone and hair are turning out; gotta try that out on my girls :) Will be following this one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandmaster Flux Posted March 1, 2010 Author Share Posted March 1, 2010 Pretty simple, really. Googled a large pic of an aquila, printed it out, glued it to a piece of heavy cardstock, and went around it with a hobby knife. Bang, done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShinyRhino Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Pretty simple, really. Googled a large pic of an aquila, printed it out, glued it to a piece of heavy cardstock, and went around it with a hobby knife. Bang, done. If you want something that requires less cleanup afterward, try tracing the design onto a stencil made of several pieces of painter's tape. The tape lies flush to the model, and won't ruin the paintjob underneath. Not as reusable as plastic or cardstock stencils, but far easier to paint.

Grandmaster Flux Posted March 1, 2010 Author Share Posted March 1, 2010 That's incredibly brilliant. I would be worried, though, that with something like the aquila and all it's feathery bits, that you'd have a harder time keeping the lines parallel as they're supposed to be.

Natanael Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Great stuff this, both sisters and rhinos. The aquila-idea is awesome. I'm gonna steal it too :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandmaster Flux Posted April 26, 2010 Author Share Posted April 26, 2010 Haven't even touched my other tanks, but I finished a jump pack cannonness. http://lh5.ggpht.com/_vpEJLUw6lKc/S9X2aVNiS_I/AAAAAAAABnQ/I0US4BGUf-w/s800/P4250171.JPG http://lh3.ggpht.com/_vpEJLUw6lKc/S9X2b3WuAJI/AAAAAAAABnU/fgKiv09yHtA/s720/P4250173.JPG http://lh3.ggpht.com/_vpEJLUw6lKc/S9X2d_niLBI/AAAAAAAABnY/kHNDbnT1-pk/s512/P4250174.JPG With bionics http://lh3.ggpht.com/_vpEJLUw6lKc/S9X2fchoOTI/AAAAAAAABnc/2XPA6EGF84c/s512/P4250176.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newtype Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Your SOB army looks fantastic! The graphic look of the Imperial Aquila on the white rhinos is just beautiful. Like the others, I am going to have to borrow the technique for myself. Maybe put it on Landraiders. The bionic arm of the Cannoness adds serious character to her. Makes you wonder if she lost it while trying to get the mace? Or while using the mace? Just stunning. Please post more pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or while using the mace? I felt compelled to put it on there after a game in which she went two rounds of one-on-one with Mephiston, and a lucky Bionics roll saved her from death, allowing her to put him down with the white-hot inferno pistol.

WarriorFish Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Is that a big I on the two Immos too? They look amazing, especially all together as an army! I'm going to look into painting some aquilas on my Marine's Rhinos too (I'm repainting them currently) as that is too cool to pass up on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grandmaster Flux Posted June 1, 2010 Author Share Posted June 1, 2010 Is that a big I on the two Immos too? Yeah. I wanted to carry on with the theme, but there's not a whole lot of room to do stuff on the immolators, what with all the extra bling. http://lh3.ggpht.com/_vpEJLUw6lKc/TAVnxpknY4I/AAAAAAAACGA/-E2Ngy4fHbs/s800/P5300185.JPG I'm not as big a fan of how they turned out from side-on, but top-down the =I= comes together solid.
