Leardinal Posted August 24, 2012 Author Share Posted August 24, 2012 I haven't posted an update in a while because I have changed shifts at my job and started going back to school and am still trying to find a place for the hobby in my new schedule. @DAT: Why thank you, I am glad you think so. So, I got my order from Anvil Industries and I "had" to redo my Captain again. I don't like the look of one handed Bolters anymore, (Though my Sternguard Veteran Sergeant will, but that's because of the Power Fist I will be using with him,) and a bunch of the little bits from the old one will go onto the new one, (The Power Sword, the Iron Halo, the Helmet, the Scabbard, ect...). Since all my Sergeants are getting special helmets, I decided my Scout Sergeant shouldn't miss out. Not going to be the Sergeant, but I needed to model the Helmet. Got around to finishing my Tactical squad. The Sergeant with a Power Maul. Combat Squad the Captain will be running with in my 500pt list. Heavy Weapon Combat Squad.

Leardinal Posted May 9, 2013 Author Share Posted May 9, 2013 Hello everyone. So, In between changing shifts at my job, school, looking for a summer job, Dark Souls, Battlefield, StarCraft and A Song of Ice and Fire, I kind of stopped working on my project, but I have some ideas bouncing around in my head for what to do with the tanks and banner and that has me working again. The Tactical Squad with a coat of grey This guy is a bit farther along A shot of his Squad heraldry I also had a metal powerfist that was packed into one of my kits that seems to not belong, (sorry if you got a model and it was minus a powerfist,) so I used it to make my Sternguard Sergeant And finally, the most recent incarnation of my Counts-As Tycho Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/213813-knights-of-the-abyss-wip/page/7/#findComment-3367822 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razblood Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Some progress at last :P Â The only advice I can give is to get some white primer, even if you want to prime black first and then spray the upper areas with the white it will make painting that scheme much quicker and easier ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/213813-knights-of-the-abyss-wip/page/7/#findComment-3367828 Share on other sites More sharing options...
reckoning Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 Where's the power maul on that Sgt. from? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/213813-knights-of-the-abyss-wip/page/7/#findComment-3367835 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leardinal Posted May 9, 2013 Author Share Posted May 9, 2013 @ Razblood: Haha, yep, finally sat down to do some work. I would love to base them white, but more then half my army was based black from my last scheme, I don't feel like trying to strip them, and this way seems to work well enough.  @ Reckoning34: Its from the Empire General kit for WFB Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/213813-knights-of-the-abyss-wip/page/7/#findComment-3367840 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razblood Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 @ Razblood: Haha, yep, finally sat down to do some work. I would love to base them white, but more then half my army was based black from my last scheme, I don't feel like trying to strip them, and this way seems to work well enough.  @ Reckoning34: Its from the Empire General kit for WFB Fair enough :lol:  But you wouldn't need to strip them o0f the black, just give a light coat of white from about a 45 degree angle. This will highlight the whole model and make getting a smooth final white with decent shading much easier :) But if you are happy with what you have going on (and why wouldn't you be?) then all power to you ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/213813-knights-of-the-abyss-wip/page/7/#findComment-3368518 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leardinal Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 @ Blindhamester: Thanks! @ Dark Apostle Thirst: Haha, yep. I have hidden Dark Souls in a small fold in reality so it can't tempt me to spend my time playing it instead of working on my project. I got some free time today, and decided my ramshackle Predator variant prototype needed some work done to it. The Marine with redirected power cords Added hydraulic looking things to make the doors seem more stable And with the marine in place Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/213813-knights-of-the-abyss-wip/page/7/#findComment-3369084 Share on other sites More sharing options...
