JaM_TW Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 Hi all, I finally found time to paint/finish my GotC. Looked at some other (old ?) threads and I just hope those marines are not left to collect dust on a shelf... Anyway: I've picked up those nifty crossed-swords shoulderpads from GW back then. But now I cant find them in their online shop anymore. Anyone still know if they still sell them, and if so, what's the part number ? Painting the crossed swords by hand wont really work for me, I'm decent with a brush but rubbish with free hand. And I dont really like decals, too... :P I need another 10 at least, possibly 20 if I ever want to field a dev-squad or 2. So if anyone out there has the partnumber, please help. And also, if anyone out there (still ?) paints Guardians of the Covenant, please post too ! They are far too nice a chapter to be forgotten. :) Best regards, F&S Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/202582-guardians-of-the-covenant/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Master Neo Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 unfortunately gw don't sell them anymore but i did see not long ago a site that does but can't remeber for the life of me where. sorry mate GotC will never be forgotten with me as they are being used in an idea i have been discussing on here for a while along with a number of other successors Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/202582-guardians-of-the-covenant/#findComment-2414163 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother dean Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 I started a Demi squad of GotC vets and my kid saw the one I started and wanted to finish the squad and here it sits... I'm using some really old decals so I cant help you with the part #. Do you feel able to make a Greenstuff mold of one of the pads and make your own icons from more greenstuff to glue to plastic pads? http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w20/fred40k2002/Deathwing/GotC002.jpg http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w20/fred40k2002/Deathwing/GotC003.jpg http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w20/fred40k2002/Deathwing/GotC005.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/202582-guardians-of-the-covenant/#findComment-2414242 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaM_TW Posted May 27, 2010 Author Share Posted May 27, 2010 Yeah, I was thinking about the GS-route... but I'm a lot of shoulderpads short, too ;) . That's what happens if you move and sell your stuff I guess. Still, too bad they dont sell them anymore. Could really use them. I've undercoated another 8 today, probably will (speed ?) paint them soon. Just to make sure they are ready for a tournament. Probably nowhere near the standards most of you here are used too, but then again I want them painted :) I can always go back to them and refurbish them a little...

FerociousBeast Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 One thing that I've always thought about doing for the Dark Angel winged sword was making a stencil with green stuff so that I could quickly and easily paint it perfectly on each shoulder pad. I haven't done it though, so I couldn't give you pointers.
