Tessio Niri Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Hello everyone. I'm quite new to this forum but have watched it for quite a while and eventually decided to become a member. As the title suggests I'm working my way through my army painting up the 2nd battle company, although I am working my way through the 1st company and support vehicles. The pictures that follow are the completed squads so far. All C&C is welcome. Command squad (minus apothecary) http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk146/Maverick19985/P1020944.jpg Chaplain http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk146/Maverick19985/P1020943.jpg 1st Battle Squad (Tactical) http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk146/Maverick19985/P1020955.jpg 2nd Battle Squad (Tactical) http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk146/Maverick19985/P1020952.jpg 3rd Battle Squad (Tactical) http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk146/Maverick19985/P1020953.jpg 5th Battle Squad (Tactical) http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk146/Maverick19985/P1020951.jpg Will be working on the other tactical, Assault and Devestator Squads over the next few weeks and will update when each unit is completed.

Brother_Augustus Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 why are the third and fifth the same squad?other than that, they are really well done Clearly you have not been looking closely enough. Although i dislike the ultra's i do like the way yours look and anyone making a battle company deserves the praise for it so good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tessio Niri Posted April 9, 2010 Author Share Posted April 9, 2010 Just finished the missing apothecary from the Command Squad. I wanted him to be painted in the traditional colours of an apothecary since I'm a little old school when it comes to the Space Marines. 2nd Company Apothecary http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk146/Maverick19985/P1020956.jpg Regards T. P.S By the way I hate painting white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Captain Achilles Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 very happy to see another brother of the Second taking on the Best company of Marines in the Imperium. Very good looking army I always liked the grity look of the drybursh method of painting Ultramarines. :devil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah you're right Sicarius is the Captain of the 2nd, and yes is a totally kick ass model (which I do have and will be posting in another thread for my special charcters). This guy however does predate the Sicarius model by a good 5+ years and I tend to use him as a cheaper alternative in most of my games. The model is just the old metal captain with a simple head swap and plastic bolt pistol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter Payton Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Quick Question: How do you do your blue? Great Models! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tessio Niri Posted April 26, 2010 Author Share Posted April 26, 2010 Quick Question: How do you do your blue? My blues are really easy to do. Starting with a black undercoat add a basecoat of either regal blue or mordian blue (I find adding a little pva glue to the paint help thicken it up and helps cohesion of the paint to the model). The next stage is to drybrush layers of ultramarines blue onto the model until to get the required highlights. I used to do this with a tank brush but have since started using a small drybrush and have had much better results. Regards T . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
