Tzen Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Man alive this was hard to paint. I dislike metal Miniatures anyway, but this one was an old Black Legion one I had from a looonngg time ago. I'm painting some of the metal ones up, and a Land raider I had from a while back in order to get some practice at: 1) Painting terminators (though I think the plastic ones I have will be much more forgiving). 2) Converting a landraider with plasticard 3) Painting a landraider! http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/termfront.jpg http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/termback.jpg http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/termside.jpg I'll post some pics in a bit of the condition this guy was in before i painted him.

Brother Nihm Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Old School metal terminators, annoying to paint, but yours turned out so damn nice. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/222562-word-bearers-terminator/#findComment-2660910 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted February 16, 2011 Author Share Posted February 16, 2011 Thanks very much! :P Anyway, check these out! I have 18 old skool metal terminators in total, some of them are still in an old box not even built. http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/termis.jpg These ones I got a long time ago, some of them got a lil paint from me, but they mostly came from a deal I did with a colleague back when I worked for GW. They are a little worse for wear. If I could get a closer shot it would be even more evident! http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/3termis.jpg Back in the day, I played Black legion, this is what I considered "Finished" back then.... *shudder*. http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/badraider.jpg Words fail me :P http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/badraider2.jpg Anyways, when i get time my plan is to paint up 5 of these Termis (maybe 4, not sure yet) and convert the land raider. Mainly as practice for when I use my forgeworld doors on the new land raider and plastic termis I have.

Sons of Horus Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I really like the way you paint. I think the reason I like the old metal termies is because they seemed more detailed even though they were smaller and, well, uh... metal :devil: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/222562-word-bearers-terminator/#findComment-2662114 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tzen Posted March 4, 2011 Author Share Posted March 4, 2011 http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/termie2.jpg Second one done! Really time consuming painting these, but I think they are turning out ok. Need to find two more combi melta arms or I'll need to convert some up!

Captain Tezdal Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Quite the handsome devil, but they were kind of a pain to paint. Good Job! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/222562-word-bearers-terminator/#findComment-2678306 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tzen Posted March 7, 2011 Author Share Posted March 7, 2011 First squad done! Just need 3 more of these finished, and then another 10 man squad with Rhino then I treat myself to painting a great unclean one! :confused: http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/termie3.jpg http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s172/tzen_spider/3termies.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/222562-word-bearers-terminator/#findComment-2680541 Share on other sites More sharing options...
