notmattlythgoe Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 So I finally glued together my first models yesterday, they are waiting for paint now. I personally think they turned out pretty nice, I really like a couple of the poses. Let me know what you guys think. http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/9813/squadd.jpg http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/4833/sergent1.jpg http://img90.imageshack.us/img90/141/sergent2.jpg http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/4068/sergent3.jpg http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/74/pistolbolter1.jpg http://img156.imageshack.us/img156/2520/pistolbolter2.jpg http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/127/plasmagun1.jpg http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/6981/plasmagun2.jpg Bah images fixed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aekold Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I can't see your pictures, only litlle red crosses. You should check your links. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isiah Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Hmmm yes that's frustrating. Code syntax seems fine but when copy/pasting the url links they get an error message: "We're sorry, this page is temporarily unavailable. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please try again later."

notmattlythgoe Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 gosh 60 some views and the only replies are from when the links didn't work? :) I figured someone would point out the fact that the guy with the pistol and bolter needs some green stuff in his left armpit by now.

EPK Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 gosh 60 some views and the only replies are from when the links didn't work? :D I figured someone would point out the fact that the guy with the pistol and bolter needs some green stuff in his left armpit by now. The guy with the pistol and bolter needs some green stuff in his armpit. : P The poses are nice and dynamic. I especially like the fella who needs the green stuff filling. On the other hand, legality-wise, the Vet can not have two bolt pistols. Can't wait to see some paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Master Belial Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 ... and there needs to be holes drilled into the weapons. can't tell if there are any flash lines from the photos. I would say paint them up and you'll get more comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notmattlythgoe Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 Yeah I know he isn't legal with two pistols. Figured I'd field him as a counts as pistol and CCW. I tried to get rid of the mold lines as much as best I could tell, and I agree I need to go get a drill before I paint. Thanks for the replies :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Edgimus Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 you could count him as bolt pistol and plasma pistol, believe thats legal somewhere in the dex. probably vets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notmattlythgoe Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 Well he is a Sergent in a tac squad, so I can replace his bolter with a chainsword. And since a bolt pistol counts as a normal CCW, I'll only ever fire one shot from him at range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isiah Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I like 'em so far... Twin pistols has a nice (Cypher) feel to it :). Cheers I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notmattlythgoe Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 I ordered some of the steam knight helms from maxmini also, I'm going with the black pre heresy color scheme with the red iconography. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plastic Rat Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 I like 'em so far... Twin pistols has a nice (Cypher) feel to it :D. Cheers I Yeah, first thing I thought was that would make a nice retinue for Cypher... Like the poses. Very dynamic. Forget about the legality, for a cool looking model any decent opponent will make an exception. Look forward to seeing them painted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EPK Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Forget about the legality, for a cool looking model any decent opponent will make an exception. I have to agree - only mentioned it because OP asked for feedback. They're looking good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Master Belial Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Forget about the legality, for a cool looking model any decent opponent will make an exception. Or have another mini with two swords. I did that with some Fallen Berserkers. I've had no complaints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gillyfish Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Very nice, dynamic poses. I think you'll need to do a little tidying up; I noticed some remnants of the plastic where you've clipped the components from the sprues - nothing a file won't sort out. Drilling out the barrels, whilst not essential, will also make them look nicer. Looking forward to seeing them painted up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notmattlythgoe Posted April 29, 2010 Author Share Posted April 29, 2010 Finished up another pose today. I am especially proud of this one. I really wanted a kneeling missile launcher marine, but I was afraid it wasn't going to turn out well. I think this one turned out really well I also got the barrels of the other guys guns drilled out today. Plan is to get some paint on them this weekend. http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/6317/ml4c.jpg http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/4025/ml3.jpg http://img130.imageshack.us/img130/8244/ml2gk.jpg http://img180.imageshack.us/img180/2326/52186514418409459520.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myxx Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Dig the poses! I also love the twin pistols... very gun-slinger feel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isiah Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 :ph34r: I like the 'Hot-n-Ready' copyline on the box in the background. Could become the theme for your amry :yes:. Nice missile launcher marine. Cheers I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thexmarine Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Very nice poses, can't wait to see some paint on these guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azrael240 Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 if you can i would recomend modelling the misslie launcher to have one hand holding a misslie to reload the misslie launcher with other than that loving what you have done so far :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notmattlythgoe Posted May 3, 2010 Author Share Posted May 3, 2010 unfortunately i already painted and glued the arm on, but i do have another tac squad to do with a missile launcher, and i really like that idea...i'll get some painted pics up tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notmattlythgoe Posted May 3, 2010 Author Share Posted May 3, 2010 Well got my first models painted up. I think they turned out pretty well. Went with the old DA color scheme, still need to put the red icons on the shoulders. And I plan on doing the crest on the Sergent's chest red, I also want to do some touch-ups on his robe. I still have a rhino to paint up, and I need to get a Ravenwing Attack Squad ordered for my next set of things to model and paint. They are all headless because I am currently waiting on an order of Steam Knight heads to come in from MaxMini. And please forgive me for the picture quality, I'm using my phone as my camera. http://img594.imageshack.us/img594/3472/paintedsergent1.jpg http://img340.imageshack.us/img340/9155/paintedsergent3.jpg http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/2471/paintedsergent2.jpg http://img571.imageshack.us/img571/7779/paintedbolter1.jpg http://img594.imageshack.us/img594/4040/paintedbolter2.jpg http://img202.imageshack.us/img202/2593/paintedbolter3.jpg http://img571.imageshack.us/img571/7461/paintedbolters2.jpg http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/5427/paintedbolters3.jpg http://img43.imageshack.us/img43/2401/paintedbolters4.jpg http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/8734/paintedbolters.jpg http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/8691/paintedgrenader2.jpg http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/1203/paintedgrenader.jpg http://img697.imageshack.us/img697/7615/paintedmissilelauncher1.jpg http://img202.imageshack.us/img202/892/paintedmissilelauncher2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notmattlythgoe Posted May 13, 2010 Author Share Posted May 13, 2010 Finally getting an update posted. I've since gotten some highlights done on the models. The grips on the bolters are now blue, along with the eyes on the helms. The MaxMini Steam Knight helms came in and they have been painted up and attached. I also hand painted the tac squad icons and old red Dark Angels icons on because the decals were pissing me off. Also got the first steps of some basing done. Let me know what you guys think. I'm really happy with how my first batch turned out. I am currently putting some raven wing bikers together, I am converting all of the bikes to choppers so its taking a little time. I'll get some pics up one I have them all glued. Also got Sammael's speeder glued together (got that thing doesn't fit together correctly), I want to fill in the gaps before I paint so that will probably happen after the bikers are glued. http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/8980/finalsergent.jpg http://img684.imageshack.us/img684/2504/finalbolter1.jpg http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/1781/finalbolter2.jpg http://img230.imageshack.us/img230/7569/finalbolter3.jpg http://img6.imageshack.us/img6/8239/finalbolter4.jpg http://img12.imageshack.us/img12/4093/finalbolter5.jpg http://img189.imageshack.us/img189/4287/finalmissilelauncher.jpg http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/623/finalplasma.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
