Finally got more painting done, falling a bit behind if I want to get my LPC vow done! I got the last 5 of my Tactical squad done, so just 5 more Tacticals and a Captain left by the end of the month!

I messed up one of the eyes on the one kneeling too many times, so gave him a black eye to cover it up.. maybe he fell on his binoculars.

My progress for my LPC vow, the last 6 are in a sloppy basecoat stage. Hoping to have them done by the end of the weekend or around there!

Also changed the equipment on 2 of my Command Squad, dropped the Flamer and upgraded the fist to a Thunder Hammer. Had to repair the piece I got off a friend with some green stuff.

And put together a Venerable Dreadnought with 2 FW autocannons because I think it looks really cool!

Good job! I like your orange, but be careful if someone turns up inviting you to a secret orange-obsessed cult! ;)

 

 

I have no idea what you are talking about Porridge.

 

:ph34r: ^_^

 

Nice work so far, Zujara. The dread is looking good.

Olisredan: Thanks! Mortis dreads do look the coolest

Vulkan454: Glad you like the black eye, was the best I could do to cover up my error. I'm ok with doing one eye, but once it comes to 2 I can never make them match up and looking in the same direction!

PorridgeMeister: Thanks. Just need an Ironclad dread and I got one of each type, I do love dreads!

 

Annoying setback, the new Gryphonne Sepia I bought was from a bad batch. I didn't notice until I had washed all the marines I was working on with it and saw they were very different from the others I had done. I did call GW and they are sending a replacement, but to finish my LPC vow I guess I need to go buy one tomorrow and quickly finish up!

Finished my 5man tactical squad and my captain, so my LPC vow is complete!

My army so far, go the HQ and 2 Troops done!

Time to take a break from painting marines and get some vehicles done! Next goal, 1000 point army painted!

Thanks was getting worried I wouldn't finish in time. The transfers are from Armorcast, the black Griffon Rampant. Pretty happy with them though they are a bit more fragile than the GW transfers.

 

They look really effective so you should be happy :D

 

Whirlwind looks great so far as well.

Really sorry for the threadomancry but I had to ask - how did you do the powersword on your commander? It looks superb and yet very different to the other lightning style power weapons I've seen.

 

No worries I was actually just getting back into the hobby after a break so updates will be resuming! I start by painting the weapon Orkhide Shade, then doing a thick line in the rough shape of a lightning bolt in Snot Green, paint a thinner line inside the Snot Green with Goblin Green, then an even thinner line inside the Goblin Green with Scorpion Green. With a 1:1 mix of Scorpion Green and Sunburst Yellow, I paint a very thin line in the bends of the lightning, and where the lightning meets the weapon then add a small speck of skill white in those same areas.

 

When I get the time, I could do a step by step since I will need to do more power weapons anyways!

 

Did a bit of assembling to get back into the army, did 5 scouts with shotguns, Sergeant has a combi-melta and melta bombs. Also worked on a Land Speeder Storm
