Cpt. Cortez Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Long time since i posted here!! But where better to show my power armour off?... Let me apologise in advance for the pic quality, it makes the paint look thick and blotchy, and takes some of the richness out of the colour... damn iphone!! (camera went the way of the dodo!!) These are still WIP need bashing up and weathering, but have at them!! Kitbash seth... working on a new and improved version! Libby dread Tac sqd sgt (yes im playing a tac sqd in BA) Tac sqd and rhino (rhino WIP) Sang guard WIP... going dark and gritty with these guys Chaplain, looks dusty... hes not lol WIP rhino... needs bashing up, weathering, and free hand finishing DC dread with blood talons ( chainfists for extra flesh tearer rippyness!!!) WIP Dante counts as... prob wont use him, but kitbashing all the BA chars (just in case!!) And finally, my WIP seth, not the head im using... just ordered the chaos termie lord head i used on other seth... what do you think of blood reaver? Right, i understand these are never going to win competitions or compare to some of you GODS of painting/modelling out there, but i think they are at least good enough for table top... have at them folks! Thanks for looking!! Liam hmmm. i messed up good style there... not quite thhe same as dakka lol... *edit* sorted it lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Eight Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Thats better . loving youre troops really impressive but youre tanks look a little to clean to be flesh tearers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt. Cortez Posted August 28, 2010 Author Share Posted August 28, 2010 They are WIP.. i said they still need weathering and bashin up ;) as do the troops, just waiting for some reaper paints in the post :P Liam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
husi2100 Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 thats one big chainsword, i love it. and that blood talon dread is fantastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysimachus Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 these look very nice! I like the new Seth, blood reaver looks nice but I'm glad to hear you're getting another Chaos Lord head, it's awesome! Also the movement on the dreads is very good, especially the DC one, and I like the verdigris effect on the Sang Guard. I'd agree more weathering would be helpful, know you said you're doing more on the tanks but will you weather the troops more too? To my mind the Flesh Tearers don't spend much time maintaining their stuff! Edit: D'oh, just re-read your last post, ignore me! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ephrael Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 The patina on the Sanguinary Guard is one of the best ideas I have seen, especially for Flesh Tearers. You have made it very realistic as well. I will be following this with interest. The rest of your work is impressive too. My only nit pick is that your original Seth's Chainsword looks a little misaligned, his head and skin is perfect though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Mick Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Really fantastic painted army so far, i really like the pose of your dread. Keep up the good work :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Chaplain Astador Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 The army looks awesome so far! Definitely one to be proud of! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt. Cortez Posted August 28, 2010 Author Share Posted August 28, 2010 Thanks for all the great comments! really pushes me along! I agree FTs should be very weathered and damaged.!!.. comes with the job of being a flesh tearer i suppose!! As for seth, the original is let down by the chainsword... dont ask me how or why, i never noticed how damaged the blade was before painting. Alot of my inquisitor stuff was like that for some reason. Thats why i chose to make another, seriously though, does the new blood reaver look daft? any suggestions? Again, cheers guys! true gents all of you!! Liam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sar mikael Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 nice looking models, plus a great paint job and a totally awesome power sword for your dreaddy! man where is that from cause i want one for mine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Of Sparta Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Very impressive FT there. I love the richness of the red armour, and the weathering gives the final finishing touch really well. Both of the dreadnoughts look fantastic, especially the Librarian one. As for the blood reaver, it looks choppy enough to be giving str.8 attacks and is a very good and unique take on the original. I quite like the stubbyness of the blade. It lends more weight to it than the longer, thinner one that the stock mini has :P. cheers James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt. Cortez Posted August 31, 2010 Author Share Posted August 31, 2010 Thanks a million! Im glad blood reaver has got good crit! I like the more brutal look, compared to the slender look of the stock GW model... it means alot having good comments of you godly lot!! Im sorry for slow updates, a combination of being on call, dislocated thumb, bank holiday weekend and paints in the post havent helped!! lol cheers again!!

The Toxic Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 nice oxidized metal there. You puttin jet packs on them hopefully? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt. Cortez Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 LOL, yea packs will be on when ive finished painting the model... i hate painting assault type troops with their packs on so leave them off and paint them seperately... Im thinking of starting a new paint line up, assembling my marines without heads, packs and shoulder pads. airbrushing the main body and paint the detail, then undercoat and paint the black parts seperately. does anyone do this? And do you find you loose pieces? Also, ive never used an airbrush before, but ive heard to buy a good branded one from the off. Can anyone suggest a good standard airbrush and compressor for a new airbrusher :P?? Ive heard gravity fed double action is the best, is this true? BTW seths head came, he is now primed, based and ready for a lick of paint!! Liam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S. Bloodhowl Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 These guys are looking great man, although I have to say I prefer the old seth to the new one, that chainsword and head are just a bit ugly if I'm frank, sorry. I really love your Dread and Chaplain though! Fowlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
