Couple of IW pieces


Recommended Posts

Hey hey :D

 

First post, but I've used the forum a fair bit for ideas, help and inspiration, found some great things on here.

 

So, I'm no pro painter, but showing off is fun ;)

At first I thought the Land Raider sort of exploded, it was so busy-looking, and then I realized it was just because the doors were open and the sponson turrets have spikes all over them. These guys look like they besieged the Imperial Palace and just never got the memo that it ended. :D
Did you just say you're no pro painter? Then I suck, horribly, lol :P

 

Heretics and mutants must be purged! But at least they look blasphemously good before they die >.>

 

Nope, not particularly brilliant compared to some I've seen xD But thanks :) Die? Nevar! ;)

Wait... it ended? Says who??!?

 

Thanks lol, took forever to paint that beast :D

Heh, I still have an LRC to finish painting... Mine is nowhere near as detailed and characterful as that one, and I still don't relish having to spend the time on painting it. Your Land Raider, however, is beautiful, in a grotesque and slightly disturbing sort of way :tu:

Really like the IW beserker. The hazard stripes tie him to the Legion nicely and work really well with the red. I also like the muted and grimy look that you've achieved on all the models, they look just like the siege masters that they are:).

Incidentally is the beserker's name Kroeger by any chance?

Thanks ^_^ I figured their a founding legion, and since retreating to the eye could well be over 10,000 yr old, so their not going to look fresh out the forge :lol:

Not sure where I got the idea of the bezerkers from, but they are mentioned in storm of iron - Iron warriors that have fallen to the blood god. I figured the helmet is a significant adjustment to the standard armor, the more usual bezerkers being red there particularly, so it seemed a good spot to make it clear where their allegiances lie without compromising the armor-soaked-in-blood look lol.

 

Lol, it wasn't intended as a special at all, it's just one of the squad leaders. I've got a modified IW that would fit Kroeger as a champion though... Hm... ideas! xD

Very cool. My only critque would be the paint doesn't seem to be taken on the inside of the assualt ramp - I've found this when brush painting the basecoat on this piece due to the diamond florring pattern. The black lines on the hazard stripes look a little thin. Really like the dusty wartorn look of the Raider .
