captain sox Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Hey all! I've signed up for the LPC for the first time. Over the last 2 years, I have had a hard time coming up with colour scheme. I've painted, stripped, re-painted and re-stripped my mini's for a long time. I finally decided on a scheme, and I present it here. just a quick background on my army. It's pretty much all Scouts now. I can run it with either Codex:SM, Codex: Blood Angels, and trying to make it work for Templars ... we'll see. Anyway, here's the vow: I, captain sox of the Liber Astartes subforum, vow on the honour of my Redeemers Chapter to paint and present Two Land Speeder Typhoons, one 10 Man Scout Sniper Squad, two 10 Man Scout Bolter Squads, two Ten Man Scout Close Combat Squads, 5 Terminators and one Stormraven Gunship on or before the 31st of March, 2011. I promise to provide at least two WIP updates, preferably with pictures, in that time. I vow that if I should fail, I will provide the Librarium with an article and wear the Signature of Shame until my penitence period is done. On to the pics. This is the standard I wish to paint my entire force. this is not a part of the LPC, but I did paint this fellow last month: http://i430.photobucket.com/albums/qq25/ConductorSam/LPC%20Marines/Fromoldcomputer3338.jpg Here's a view of the entire project, as you can see, some progress has been made. http://i430.photobucket.com/albums/qq25/ConductorSam/LPC%20Marines/LPCMarinesII1.jpg We'll start off with the primed/painted/started units: Siper Squad, with Counts as Telion: http://i430.photobucket.com/albums/qq25/ConductorSam/LPC%20Marines/LPCMarinesII9.jpg Bolter Squad I. Sergeant has Combi-Plasma and Powerfist. Note in the top left corner you can see the nose of my Bio-Titan/Monsterous Creature: http://i430.photobucket.com/albums/qq25/ConductorSam/LPC%20Marines/LPCMarinesII11.jpg Close Combat Squad I. Sergeant has Combi-Flamer and Powerfist: http://i430.photobucket.com/albums/qq25/ConductorSam/LPC%20Marines/LPCMarinesII15.jpg Terminators: These are AoBR Termies that have been modified a bit. They are only primed at the time. http://i430.photobucket.com/albums/qq25/ConductorSam/LPC%20Marines/LPCMarinesII10.jpg The first Land Speeder Typhoon. Note that it's still missing it's crew, some paint and Multi-Melta. I'll add the crew when I finish the interior. By the way, I hand prime all of my models, which is a slow process, but enjoyable none the less. http://i430.photobucket.com/albums/qq25/ConductorSam/LPC%20Marines/LPCMarinesII5.jpg Now for the unpainted models (note: didn't take a close up of the other Typhoon). Close Comabt Squad II: 5 Shotguns, 4 CC Scouts and a Sergeant with Combi-Flamer: http://i430.photobucket.com/albums/qq25/ConductorSam/LPC%20Marines/LPCMarinesII6.jpg Bolter Squad II: Sergeant with Combi-Melta and Powerfist: http://i430.photobucket.com/albums/qq25/ConductorSam/LPC%20Marines/LPCMarinesII8.jpg I've been working at trying to remove all the flash/mold lines. I've also drilled out all of the gun barrels. An example is here: http://i430.photobucket.com/albums/qq25/ConductorSam/LPC%20Marines/LPCMarinesII21.jpg And finally, here's a pic of my Bio-Titan/MC. She really isn't a monster. Just very curious. And protector of my army: http://i430.photobucket.com/albums/qq25/ConductorSam/LPC%20Marines/LPCMarinesII14.jpg Lastly, I'm missing one piece of the puzzle. The one piece that will be a huge challenge. The Stormraven. Priming, painting and detailing will take a while, but I vow to have it done by the end of March! Remember, this is a WIP, so a lot a detail to be done. Stay tuned... updates coming soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
