lewiss111 Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 here is my sisters of battle army i have been working on, i call it the 'order of the pure'. I have had this army for a while, but it was mainly infantry and i have began making it up to date with 5th edition. so far i have got 3 troops painted, which i think its enough for games... anyways on with the pictures: http://i848.photobucket.com/albums/ab44/lewiss111/L1030135.jpg?t=1276369776 http://i848.photobucket.com/albums/ab44/lewiss111/L1030136.jpg?t=1276369776 i have another 2 hand flamers, so i can split the squad into 2 of 6 http://i848.photobucket.com/albums/ab44/lewiss111/L1030137.jpg?t=1276369776 http://i848.photobucket.com/albums/ab44/lewiss111/L1030138.jpg?t=1276369776 http://i848.photobucket.com/albums/ab44/lewiss111/L1030139.jpg?t=1276369776 http://i848.photobucket.com/albums/ab44/lewiss111/L1030140.jpg?t=1276369776 http://i848.photobucket.com/albums/ab44/lewiss111/L1030141.jpg?t=1276369776 http://i848.photobucket.com/albums/ab44/lewiss111/L1030142.jpg?t=1276369776 http://i848.photobucket.com/albums/ab44/lewiss111/L1030143.jpg?t=1276369776 http://i848.photobucket.com/albums/ab44/lewiss111/L1030144.jpg?t=1276369776 http://i848.photobucket.com/albums/ab44/lewiss111/L1030146.jpg?t=1276369776 i still have got to paint some penitent engines and another batch of troops, but hopefully i will be able to get some rhinos and an exorcist to wrap this project up! i will update soon with some more finished units http://i848.photobucket.com/albums/ab44/lewiss111/L1030147.jpg?t=1276369776 please leave comments and criticism, and tell me what you think of the colour scheme!

Obliterator Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Very nice, striking color scheme! Lovin' the army, it's bright (I like bright ;) ), but still regal and Inquisition-like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_cheat137 Posted June 13, 2010 Share Posted June 13, 2010 Nice color scheme! We should play against each other sometime, everyone would think it's a Battle Sister Civil War! My Sisters of the Steadfast Heart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lewiss111 Posted June 14, 2010 Author Share Posted June 14, 2010 thanks for the comments, its great to know i'm not the only SOB player who has the same custom colour scheme with another player who lives on the other side of the world, i guess great minds think alike ...... i have under-coated all the models which i should paint, and began to paint the metal. update soon !

WarriorFish Posted June 15, 2010 Share Posted June 15, 2010 I really like that scheme, very striking and fitting for the SoB! If you're having trouble with the white, try using some Astronomicon Grey to build it up on - has worked well for me if I need to paint white on a darker colour. Just remember to use thinned down coats and be patient and it's not a problem (even I can do it <_<). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Nugz Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Very nice, my only suggestion would be to wash some of the faces (Badab works fine but I prefer my old flesh wash ink) and then going over the high points in a lighter skin tone like elf, dwarf or rotting flesh(depending on how pale you want them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow Nugz Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 I know what you mean, at first they were really hard but seeing as my brother absolutely hates doing them, (nd I 'd always get stuck finishing all of his bare-headed marines) I have a lot of practice and can work them pretty decently with a minimum of time and effort (I'm a slacker I admit) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
