The Sekhmet+HH Emperor's Children: Loken vs Abaddon 12/6/24

[One-eye]

Your metallics are awesome Kizz. I love the "sky-earth true metal painting" vibe that you give them. The sides of the lascannons are perfect in that regard.

Thanks, bro! Glad you like the metallics

 

 

Just the detail left on the Contemptor now!

I'm just about to put a Forgeworld order in! I'll be getting a Spartan and probably a Venator and/or Scorpius. I was seriously tempted to get a Stormeagle (they seems so perfect for the III Legion) instead of the Spartan, but the Spartan just seems too good to pass up.

 

 

Thanks for looking

Beautiful! 

[Daemon2027]

Great work on the contemptor, as always. The commander from the previous page though, amazing.

[paz]

out of likes, nooo!

 

Gorgeous as always, coming together so well.

[Quixus]

Love the Timber Wolf shooty Contemptor.

[Laborious]

Stunning work, once again. :)

[DimDim]

Excellent mate!

Thanks for the great feedback, guys! :)

I also put in a new FW order last night (Spartan, Venator and Autocannons for my unbuilt Deredeo). I'm in the process of planing my next vow although it probably wont include Spartan or Venator.

 

 

 

Thanks for looking ;)

[Fire Golem]

To be completely honest, I'm not a fan of the pose. The painting is exquisite though.

[Barabbas Sogalon]

That's perfection.

[Daemon2027]

I might agree with Fire Golem that the pose is a bit static but I know how the contemptor can be a bit of a bitch to pose and the esquire painting more then makes up for it. Edited June 10, 2015 by The Hydra

[Brother Heinrich]

Fantastic work as usual man, though I wish I had said something about the pose earlier. Just feels a touch static to me. Glorious nonetheless though man.

[paz]

came back to like your wip, and there you go, finished! 

 

Just loving the colors and clean style you've carried very consistently through your emperor's children. 

[Vel'Cona]

Great work, and congratulations on finishing your ETL vow! 

[Kizzdougs]

To be completely honest, I'm not a fan of the pose. The painting is exquisite though.

Yeah, the idea behind the pose was to keep it pretty stationary, as if the Mortis was preparing to fire all systems. I agree that It's less than inspiring though. If/ when I build another Contemptor, it with definitely be posed more dynamically :)

 

That's perfection.

Thanks, dude!

Thanks, bro! The pose was intentionally static, but if I had my time again I'd probably make it a bit more dynamic.

Thanks, bro! Really looking forward to seeing some more of your Alphas painted up :tu:

 

Great work, and congratulations on finishing your ETL vow! 

Thanks, bro! I'm planning my next vow as a write :)

[Fire Golem]

For what it's worth I do feel bad for even mentioning the pose on such a wonderfully painted model ;)

I kind of guessed that's what you were going for. I think in the middle of battle, even charging up to fire, it would still not be quite so square on. But its a minor point compared to the painting which is amazing.

Fantastic work. Brilliant Infact Edited June 13, 2015 by Grizzly_bear

[Kizzdougs]

I've just built these five legionaries. The idea is that the bolter armed warriors will replace the plasma gunners in my Veteran squads so that I can use them as regular Tacticals and the plasma armed warrior will be the sergeant of a five man Tactical Support Squad. I'm also working on blinging up a couple of Mars pattern Rhinos with the relevant III Legion iconography.

[GrandMagnus]

Nice stuff, as usual. Is the combat knife from one of the WHF elven kits? It looks suitable, sleek and curved.

[Kizzdougs]

Thanks, bro! The combat blades are high elf spear tops. I think they work pretty well as gladius type weapons for the Emperor's Children :)

[Daemon2027]

Those new guys look fantastic. Will look really nice when painted up.

[Chickenleg]

Awesome work all around. Love the characters.

[Kizzdougs]

Thanks guys! :)

I also received this haul today...

 

http://i1122.photobucket.com/albums/l522/kizzdougs/DSCN3589_zpsdmur9pdy.jpg

 

I wish it was all mine. I got a couple of lads together for the free shipping (we smashed it, £524.50) and express delivery.

 

My part of the haul consists of a Spartan, Sicaran Venator, Anvilus Autocannon Battery and EC etched brass.
