TheMetaphysicalNinja Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 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 ;) http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/ae239/TheMetaphysicalNinja/Things%20which%20cost%20me%20money/100_2394.jpg http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/ae239/TheMetaphysicalNinja/Things%20which%20cost%20me%20money/100_2395.jpg http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/ae239/TheMetaphysicalNinja/Things%20which%20cost%20me%20money/100_2399.jpg http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/ae239/TheMetaphysicalNinja/Things%20which%20cost%20me%20money/100_2389.jpg http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/ae239/TheMetaphysicalNinja/Things%20which%20cost%20me%20money/100_2387.jpg http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/ae239/TheMetaphysicalNinja/Things%20which%20cost%20me%20money/100_2385.jpg http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/ae239/TheMetaphysicalNinja/Things%20which%20cost%20me%20money/100_2401.jpg http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/ae239/TheMetaphysicalNinja/Things%20which%20cost%20me%20money/100_2393.jpg Criticism & constructive comments welcome, enjoy :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/214567-couple-of-iw-pieces/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Gruldin Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Did you just say you're no pro painter? Then I suck, horribly, lol :D Heretics and mutants must be purged! But at least they look blasphemously good before they die >.> Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/214567-couple-of-iw-pieces/#findComment-2554679 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khestra the Unbeheld Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 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 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/214567-couple-of-iw-pieces/#findComment-2554681 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks lol, took forever to paint that beast :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/214567-couple-of-iw-pieces/#findComment-2554687 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Gruldin Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 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: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/214567-couple-of-iw-pieces/#findComment-2554785 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMetaphysicalNinja Posted November 5, 2010 Author Share Posted November 5, 2010 Haha, thanks ^_^ their a bit of a mission to paint. That one was (is?) the first one I got, so I kinda wanted to make a decent job of it. Quite pleased with how it came out xD Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/214567-couple-of-iw-pieces/#findComment-2554839 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pig Of Sparta Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 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?

TheMetaphysicalNinja Posted November 5, 2010 Author Share Posted November 5, 2010 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 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/214567-couple-of-iw-pieces/#findComment-2554861 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminatorinhell Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 I love the mid battle land raider... I might try that on my next one! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/214567-couple-of-iw-pieces/#findComment-2554888 Share on other sites More sharing options...

philbrad Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 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 .
