New Crusade begins!

So, I posted an army list a week or so ago and I've started to get the minis painted.

 

I've used bits from GW, Scribor and forge world and a smattering of green stuff for the cloaks of the sword brethren.

I'm quite pleased with how my Marshall turned out. He was simple to convert but I suppose I could have done a better job blending and highlighting on the cloak which is by the way the fist thing I've ever done with Green Stuff.

 

This is the first of Two Rhino's. The wife thinks I overdid the script on it but I'm rather keen on how it looks. The Dozer blade is magnetised so I can take it off and on as needed. I found the Forge world brass a pain in the bum to paint but I'm hoping as I get better as I do more.

I have straightened the Dozer blade since the photos. The Rhino is the first real attempt at weathering on a vehicle ever and I have to say I love the results using the sponge dab technique and a dose of washes to flatten it back. I also can recommend a spray called Dull coat. It's awesome. It flattens the light being reflected from the mini almost naturally shading it.

 

Any and all critique is welcome. I should be able to post some of my assault terminator Sword Brethren later this week....I'm borrowing a man and his camera. all the above photos were taken on my camera phone so I may update those above then too.

 

I wish I could figure out how to add pictures directly to the post rather than links...damn my incompetence!!!

 

Thanks for looking.

From photobucket:

click on Direct link, which will flash 'copied' once you do so.

 

Come over to B&C:

click on Insert image, which is two icons over from the smilies.

 

then do [Mac /PC] command/control + v which will paste the copied Direct link info into the Insert image bar.

 

Voila.

Looking really good, cloak and marshal in general did turn out great, but a shield doesn't really suit a chainfist, I'd have done a thunderhammer (with maybe some sort of chainsword bit on the reverse like a pickaxe type deal to count as a chainfist) and I'd have to agree with the missus on the script, although they do look awsome I think there is too much of it O.o

Thanks for taking the time to look at my stuff guys.

 

Thanks for the help with the photo posting .... was actually very easy.

 

As I said I took some photos of the 4 Lightning claw Sword Brethren on my phone which as it turns out isn't all that bad

I have 4 or the Thunder Hammer Brethren painted, I'm just waiting for the second pack of Forge world shields to turn up before I paint and photograph them.

 

Should only be 10 hours of painting (I'm not fast) then I'll be onto the first of the Lascannon squads.

Brother thouse mini's look awesome! Really like the Scibor bits too, have looked at gettingme a few bits from them - do you find they fit the GW mini's well enough? Like your rust effect, very nice & effective looking. Also like your black, just the right colour :HQ:
