@The Thirst: Personally, I think we should let you join so we'd have an even 30 participants. Do you have your own DIY to submit to be swapped? Also, Honda may not be participating this year. If he doesn't, we'd drop down to 28 participants. Ultimately it will be up to Captain_Shrike.

 

@Captain_Shrike: It was no problem, I would have hated to see this years DIY Swapping Project fall by the wayside. I sent a PM to the members that need to confirm their submissions & their affiliations. Brother Anvilus sent me a message this morning informing me that he wasn't going to be able to participate this year. I heard back from Silver Phoenix in the tread but still haven't heard back from Honda.

Not really no.

 

Perhaps I should just settle with "Blue Falcons". The only issue I had with it was that to some it would be a little to humorus. But I after thinking on it I guess the joke will not be understood by as many as I was afraid of. xD

 

So I guess an entire chapter of Blue Falcons it is!

Hope thats all OK for everyone!

 

Talk amongst yourselves about the chapter you have got and their background etc. I will open a WIP thread for us where people can share progress updates and pointers etc.

Hey fella, great scheme and like the IA, even the slightly contentious parts! I can't see clearly the chapter symbol anywhere so if you could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated. Cheers! :D

 

Dark Link, here's a link to my original post which outlines some bits about the chapter and scheme, it also links to my IA. If you've got any questions feel free to PM me!

Sorry, I can't help but laugh at the Blue Falcons Chapter. Should you have a green Psybermastiff as your Chapter Master's familiar?

 

Quite possibly. Though in my current unhealthy state I do not get the referance. It did however get me thinking about doing a supplemental force of guard known as the Sic'cal Rangers... or something like that. xD

 

Maybe I should look into tracing down a "Psybermastiff" however.

 

Anyway as for my chosen chapter... well this should be fun and difficult at the same time! Never done a quartered pattern, let alone a halfed!

. Hope you get better.

 

The Arbites henchwoman for the Inqusitor on the Grey Knights page I think has one. Either that, or I'm confusing it with the actual Inquisitor-range model.

Okay well I express my condolences to Brother Xeones. I'm doing your Jade Dragons... :P

Yeah I hope it doesn't prove to be to difficult for you, it's easier then it looks,I mean if I can manage it...I'll be glad to answer and questions Slyen

 

EDIT: Actually if quartering does prove to be too much you could alway model one of the Eternal Sleepers, more of a modelling challenge (They're comatose) but they're simply glossy black armour so no quartering, but you could slightly alter it to make it more interesting.

 

Good luck to all!

@Recon0321: I had a question regarding the Knights of Tartosa color scheme if you don't mind. I was looking at the link to their scheme you posted & it looks like they're a metallic steel color with brown robes is that right?

 

@HomerJwho: Here is a link to the info for my Chapter: Priory of Dorn Info. Let me know if you have any questions!

Ah, that's so lucky, I just got an assault squad kit the other day :ph34r: May have to buy some additional paints though, like the Orkhide and DA Green, but for the most part it looks like a pretty fun Chapter to paint! Any word on their bases WingsOfTheFalcon?

 

Reyner, my fluff and details are on the previous page. Hope you have fun painting them up!

Hey, I don't really do anything special for their bases, just the usual GW sand, colourwise I usually basecoat them Calthlan Brown then overbrush with Graveyard Earth then drybrush Dheneb Stone.

 

I think if you got DA green you could probably get away with using that as a basecoat. it just might take a few more applications than Orkhide Shade.

 

Be aware, the snot green usually takes a few layers to get a solid coat, my advice is to thin it down a bit and use two thin layers rather than try to do it in one go!

 

Good luck and thanks for taking them on! :)
