Gareth Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 I just set up my entire Ultramarine army on a 6x4 table to take some pics. These are the Space Marine apoc formations I own Battle Company (4th Company) Masters of the Chapter Predator Assassin Squadron Ancients Assault Force and I'm 70% complete on the 1st company formation. http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i278/Gareth_tyranids/Ultramarines/101_0262.jpg http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i278/Gareth_tyranids/Ultramarines/101_0267.jpg http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i278/Gareth_tyranids/Ultramarines/101_0268.jpg http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i278/Gareth_tyranids/Ultramarines/101_0264.jpg http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i278/Gareth_tyranids/Ultramarines/101_0266.jpg http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i278/Gareth_tyranids/Ultramarines/101_0265.jpg For more pics feel free to check them out over on the http://www.thepainteddragon.co.uk/forum/ or go straight to my photobucket account http://s74.photobucket.com/albums/i278/Gareth_tyranids/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellios Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 I just set up my entire Ultramarine army on a 6x4 table to take some pics.

Good work there sir... reminds me of my Dark Angels army... also the 4th company... and errm 50% of the 1st company (but they are all in terminator armour!)... I don't bother with rhinos however as my PA marines sit in defence and Death wing takes objectives! Also get two more vindicators to help you get towards 10,000pts... you know you want a linebreaker squadron... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somar Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 very nice, a lot of minis at a great painting standard. kudos! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaroph Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Oh my god man! Aside from the fact that they are many, they are also nicely painted. Did you painted them by yourself? How much time did you spent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burias-Drak'shal Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Looks great! Very well painted! Any more landraiders planned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alloyslayer Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 stunningly painted ultra's gareth :tu: even better because they are 4th company, we don't see many of us about. courage and honour brother! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Carlin Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Truly magnificent models that have quality and quantity. I respectfully request 1000% more pictures of these to view them all in detail as its an awe inspiring collection that has made me want to complete the second company that I've been collecting for years.

dizzy-xc Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Wow nice job. Now you are only 90% away from being finished! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mortanix Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Absolutely stunning force, theres something beautiful about armies of this size, all i'd like to see added is some real apoc sized super heavies or is that not something the smurfs go for? Not that clued up on loyalists, most seem to stick to bringing formations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luther - the fallen Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 That looks amazing. That many, and at that quality, must have taken forever to paint? Now you need some Thunderhawks! :P Luther - the Fallen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gareth Posted July 4, 2010 Author Share Posted July 4, 2010 Thanks fellas. I did it! I broke through the thin blue line of monotonous tank painting and completed the last 2 vindicators, adding the Line breaker formation to my apocalypse army brings the total to 9540pts! Less then 500pts to go :D :D :D Here are a couple of quick snaps. http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i278/Gareth_tyranids/Ultramarines/101_0314.jpg http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i278/Gareth_tyranids/Ultramarines/101_0313.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gareth Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share Posted July 13, 2010 Yesterday I finished the new GW venerable dreadnought. It's a fantastic kit, really spoilt for choice on how you build it. I stuck pretty close to the box art for this one. I will be adding more in the future and will do some different ones then. Brings the army total up to 9,715pts. http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i278/Gareth_tyranids/Ultramarines/101_0317.jpg http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i278/Gareth_tyranids/Ultramarines/101_0319.jpg http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i278/Gareth_tyranids/Ultramarines/101_0318.jpg Talk about grudge match :devil: http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i278/Gareth_tyranids/Ultramarines/101_0320.jpg Pic of all my vehicles I painted recently for Spearhead. http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i278/Gareth_tyranids/Ultramarines/101_0321.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mahoo Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Ahhh, nothing pleases the eye more than a sea of blue shooty death :P A fantastic looking army mate I particularly like the look of your command squad, any chance of a closer look? Also, the ven-dread is very well painted, although i think the plasma coils bring it down a bit, they seem too bright lol Maybe add a few more washes to bring the colour down a bit and help differenciate between the raised parts? Just an idea, your peinting looks a hell of a lot better than mine so I'm guessing you know what your doing :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhg033 Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 really nice. like hellios i also have a full company of DA's (3rd company for me) plus aout 50+ temrinators for a deathwing army though only about 1/3 or the later are painted. i also have a ravenwing army in the making, plus a variety of extra tanks and dreads i want to add but seem to have lost the will to paint DA color schemes and am ending up starting a new chapter with some of them. for the remaining points based on what you dont have you could go with: whirlwind formation some bikers add some drop pods for your first company Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogan Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 Darn it - you're making me jealous. I want 10k Ultramarines, too! Why... do you use a special recipe for painting them or do you just stick strictly to what GW says? I'm planning on building an army of about the size of the Chaos Gate strike force, i.e. about 50+ Marines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lounahtic Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 wow, that's a LOT of well painted dudes... usually when armies get this big people get lazy and dont do the details... but the weathering on the vehicles are all pretty awesome... how did you do the dust thing on the siege shield of the vindicators anyway? one more thing... whoever painted the tyrant did an AMAZING job... that little bug is pretty! i'm more incline to be friends w/ it than set it on fire...
