That's what I thought, but I thought I wouln't say, 'cause I didn't want to spoil the model for him. Damned dirty minds!

 

he is named seargeant Bates.

 

good job he isnt the chapter master or he would have a strange name indeed!

"Before his induction into the Astartes of the Imperial Fists Sergeant Bates was often called "The Young Master" by his peers..." :(

Hello, i am now painting Carcharodons, i have here a picture of my first model a dreadnought.

After the dreadnought i will be working on a squad of terminators using oop minis.

 

regarding the IG, i will go back to them when i have a playable army of carcharodons,

using the dark angel dex my 1500 pt army will be thus

(not meant to be competative just quick to paint so i can get a foot on the ladder!)

 

dread, land raider crusader, 2 land raiders, tactical terminator squad, assault terminator squad and belial! (will use tyberos from forge world as belial)

thats only 15 models!!

not many models to get this list finished lol.

 

thanks for looking!

http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/z378/RandomSelect/dred2.jpg

 

Also people might like to see a pic of my "man cave" for a laugh, its so messy right now as i have pushchairs, 2 guitars, 2 "toy" guitars steering wheel and racing seas for the ps3 etc. its a dump!

 

http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/z378/RandomSelect/mancave.jpg

 

need to have a reaarange methinks. unfortunatyely i share the room with a 657 year old (or thereabouts) parrot type thing (a quaker) which likes to throw its feaces about a lot somehow. so i try to stay clear.

 

it also swears which can be entertaining.

 

anyway got started on the interior of the LRC but not much to show for it so far!

 

http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/z378/RandomSelect/landint1.jpg

 

also this guy came in the post!

 

http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/z378/RandomSelect/tybey.jpg

 

im looking forward to painting him, especially as i seem to have gotten a good cast from forge world! what is the world coming to eh?

Ok so ive completed the interior of the LRC, its now assembled and im working on the exterior.

 

i have made all the "openable" doors "openable", something ive never bothered doing before, especially those little slidey ones!

 

Its painted well enough for an interior nobody's ever going to see! so anyway heres some pics for now.

Good evening! hope youre all well?

 

anyways, got the base coat sorted on the 'raider, just washed the black and now have to highlight it.

after the blacks finished i can just go over it and do all the little details, lenses, eagles skulls all that faff.

 

then paint and bung the tracks on and jobs a good un (untill FW release the transfers!)

 

I'm hoping they release a big shark symbol so i can put one on like in IA10, if not i migth have to freehand it....

 

anyway, heres the pics so far.

please ignore the highlights on the black for now, i tried to do them when i was feeling ill! i wish i hadnt, now i have to go back and tidy them all up!

I'm a huge fan of the ol' Space Sharks/ Carcharodons. I have to say your painting is very crisp and clean even with battle damage. Cant wait to see more.

 

Thanks mate! ive lots more to come!

 

Your paint style is the exact way I want to try to paint my minis! Fantastic!

 

Awww thanks sir! though i think there are much better painters than me to have as your idols!

 

Well the Land Raider is FINALLY finished.

Thanks for looking!

I like the way the exhaust stacks are painted - it adds a little reality to the miniature. ^_^

 

Thanks, i did wonder if anyone would notice!

 

Well the Land Raider is FINALLY finished.

 

 

http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/z378/RandomSelect/carcharodonslandraidercrusaderfinished4.jpg

Wow!... This just oozes badassery! Superb, well done ;) :D

 

Thanks! its an interesting pic, really shows how wide the LR is.

 

That Land Raider is sweet, really nice depth to the grey.

 

 

Thankyou, with the next tank, i'm considering going the airbrush route but i might lose cinsistency then....

 

Anyway, just been cleaning up these guys. the middle sculpt really is terrible! lol

Wow, those are old, and hideous.

 

Mostly hideous!

 

lol i quite like them myself! but agreed, they are indeed old!

 

Nostalgia only goes so far. Wow, those sculpts are... dated.

 

I wouldn't mind seeing someone resculpt that first model into a decent looking pre-heresy figure. Kinda makes me think of a futuristic version of the Menoth Exemplar Bastions.

 

Haha.

 

yeah a resculpt of all these i think would be interesting!

I shall be VERY interested seeing you bring the glory to these old models, sort of ugly ducklings at the moment.

 

 

Haha not long now dude!

 

 

Heres the slow progress on the termies, excuse pics, camera doesnt like large areas of black....

Been working a bit more on the terminator sarge, currently doing the cape, thought a teal/turquise would be an interesting colour!

 

http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/z378/RandomSelect/carcharodonsterminatorsargewip1.jpg

 

Ive also decided to use these excellent scibor bases for my, well, bases!

trouble is what do i paint the broken heads as? thoughts i have had so far is white marble, black marble or heavily weathered/loads of verdigris bronze.

 

http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/z378/RandomSelect/bases1.jpg

 

I also found this interesting picture, if youve heard the song 19 by Paul Hardcastle, you will understand it!
