Mr Yellow Posted November 9, 2011 Author Share Posted November 9, 2011 @ gogmagog - I mix sunburst yellow and commando khaki till I get the right shade. I do it by eye so unfortunately I can't give you a precise mix ratio. for Glendor. Lecture 1. Always ensure your workplace is clear and free of any clutter; except for the bare minimum essentials. The following bits will be needed; I wish this diamond plate was sticky backed. Cut into little bits. Stick. Cut. And here's one I made earlier. I like to cheat though, made a mould from the bunch of bases I got pre-made. Just dollop some two part liquid resin in, easy as pie. Has a 1:1 mix ratio so no buggering around :lol: Bish, bash, bosh.

Glendor Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 thats fine I am really looking foward to seeing more minis as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aqui Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 I've had a soft spot for the Lamenters since reading about them in "Space Marine" years ago, and the Yellow you use for them is exactly the yellow I imagine them to be. Yellow is one of the colours I hate having to use as it always goes wrong for me, but the colour mix you said in a post above, I'll have to try to do a Lamenter Marine some day :lol: Â Love the Minis so far ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Yellow Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 @ Vharing - I have mentioned the shop a few times but here's a link: http://www.modelshop.co.uk/product/1%3A25_..._single_MW40016 Do bear in mind that they charge a LOT for shipping so just google search and I'm sure you will find it cheaper elsewhere. If you live in London though they have a shop there. God bless living in the London commuter belt. Â @ Demoulius - I quite like it, makes a nice difference to the normal Landraider or the old school versions. You would go green with envy if you knew how much of an ebay bargain it was though.

Mr Yellow Posted November 12, 2011 Author Share Posted November 12, 2011 @ Demoulius - You are a bigger man than me sir and I like your style. Money shall be rolled (in the direction of FW) I just have to decide what to buy....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimdarkness Posted November 13, 2011 Share Posted November 13, 2011 Bollocks that looks good all of it well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Yellow Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 Thanks Grimdarkness. Some more landraider shots, this bugger is taking a lot longer than I had first imagined. The front ramp will get hazard markings on it eventually. This side is going to take flipping ages. Some of the slightly failed free hand mural type stuff that I decided wasn't utter excrement. I will just leave it as this dude and then put a name banner underneath him. No more work on the infantry as I haven't had much time this weekend.

Mr Yellow Posted November 24, 2011 Author Share Posted November 24, 2011 Climbing from number 52 to this week to number 1 (in the posting order) is my latest efforts from the wee small hours; what is it about man flu that encourages insomnia?? Without further ado is an update of the side of my landraider: I have also made a base for the FW dread I got on ebay a while back, another bargain at 12 quid in the end. And this is what it looks like with the rest of the dread: Still think the base needs more but not sure what, any suggestions on that? Finally, the first on my Sanguinary Guard to be almost finished, just a few more details and a base to go: Quite happy with the how the wings came out in the end. C&C welcome as always chaps.

vonny Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I think adding a painted shape on the front side of the base can go a long way. Alternatively, a helmet or weapon can liven it up quite a bit. Â I can imagine your land raider taking quite a bit of time to work on... hats off to you!

Mr Yellow Posted December 4, 2011 Author Share Posted December 4, 2011 @vonny - thanks for the suggestion, as you will see I still haven't decided what will go there just yet. Anyway, I have been a bit lax in posting in my thread recently. Illness has allowed me some time to dip my dread in the paint pot. Here's where I am so far: C&C welcome as always Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
punkfish Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I'm liking that Dread! You've given it a great sense of movement and the base works very well. I'm a fan of how you've done the yellow too. Can't wait to see it finished. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fivepointedstar Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 You have some beautifal "taxi" marines. Im very much likeing the convertions you make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Yellow Posted December 16, 2011 Author Share Posted December 16, 2011 Thanks Punkfish and Dreadknight. I have finally finished my Dreadnought. By that I mean done enough for it to look done but could do with a few finishing touches that for the minute I can't be bothered to do. Anyway: and: C&C welcome as always. Till the next time.

Jorre Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Awsome dread man, although the wooden style posts on the metal base might look a little weird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Yellow Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 I, LamenterMarine of the Lamenter Marines, vow on the honour of my Chapter to paint and present at least 1 Tactical Squad of 10 marines, 1 Sanguinary Guard Squad of 5 marines, 1 Land Speeder and 1 Land Raider on or before the 31st of March, 2012. 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. Â I'm mainly finishing a bunch of stuff that I had lying around half done for ages, except for my Land Speeder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Yellow Posted January 11, 2012 Author Share Posted January 11, 2012 So, I thought I would put up my first WIP. I've been lazy and only sprayed my Land Speeder, though to make it look like I have done more I will post the other units that I am 'working on' for my vow. Land Raider pretty much looks like this from the front at the moment. There are a few images of the sides back in the thread somewhere. Tac squad: Sanguinary Guard that I need to finish. Time to crack the whip, any volunteers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Yellow Posted January 13, 2012 Author Share Posted January 13, 2012 I know I only 'have' to post two WIP updates but I wasn't hugged enough as a child and I want the attention. So, some more of the land speeder: And the tactical squad: Till the next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Yellow Posted March 18, 2012 Author Share Posted March 18, 2012 It's been a while since I posted anything. Real life stuff has gotten in the way somewhat. Anyway, this thread is now over a year old, so thank you to everyone that has joined in so far. Update on my LPC efforts. Think I will be lucky to get everything finished in time, anyway, photos: C&C Welcome as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Yellow Posted April 11, 2012 Author Share Posted April 11, 2012 Again another month since my last post. My bro is dragging me to a tournament so I am motivated again to get some stuff painted. As with my usual style this tactical squad is 'mostly done'. Anyway: Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RagingChainsword Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 Please please please I'm begging you, you have to make a tutorial on how you painted those. They're absolutley fantastic, and I would love to know how you did it. Please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamma310 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I love your Army! Your the Inspiration I need to finish my 200 Lamenters! If you're looking for some easy squad markings, maybe the new GW Flesh Tearers Decal Sheet would be useful. Keep on with the good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
