@Dorns_fist thanks for the kind words. I do plan (at some stage) of doing a 'yellowwing'. I have a the parts, and even have knocked up a command squad. And I do plan on giving them all the OSL eyes, as I really like that look, and their own heraldry as well of course. However this is something for the future.

 

@DietOfLiquor Thanks so much! Yellow isn't that bad a colour after you've got a recipe down. Plus it looks awesome on the tabletop. I say take the plunge ^_^

 

I am planning on finishing my Imperial Fist Vulcan, just to get back into the swing of things before the Imperial Fists painting challenge. Just trying to finish off some other non-power armour stuff first.

No problem, have you considerd maybe using a logan wing? i've thought about as you can really have a personalised termie army.

Well just finished my Heresy era Land Raider so thought I might as well post it here. Also I realized that I haven't posted Sigismund or the veteran boarding marine, so I'll correct that mistake as well. Any c&c welcome.

Next up are some boarding marines in MKIII armour.

@alloyslayer: Thanks, I am quite proud of them. Have spent a lot of effort on these guys and its always nice I've done a good job on them. I'm currently in my WIP thread making the rest of that boarding marines squad.

 

@Brother Rathul: Thanks Rathul. I did a considerable amount of research in order to get his armour correct. I think I've struck a happy medium. I know its not until the final siege on Terra that he gets named the Emperor's Champion and paints his armour black, but he has always been mentioned with his distinctive black and white heraldry, with the Maltese cross. I did find his description eventually in Horus Rising where he is described being in the 'golden armour' of the Fists but with his black and white heraldry. So in the end, I gave him the yellow armour but changed him pads to his personal heraldry, and I like the result.

 

@Castellan Alaric: Cheers Castellan Alaric, very happy with them both. The Land Raider itself has been hanging around gathering dust for years, so its nice to be able to freshen it up for battle once more.

 

@Dakkin'Outta'Control: Thanks for the kind words. It sure does, its one of the few armies I have that I can field completely painted, and it looks great seeing all that yellow on the field.

Well finished my next squad of marines for the Expansion. A set of 10 Boarding veterans. Spent a lot of time with freehand on these guys, so hope you like. Any c&c most welcome.

Next up is another Rogue Trader era Land Raider.

@AlexCrute: Cheers! Yeah the chainsword marine is one of my favourites, and was a bit of a pain to pin together, but worked out in the end.

 

@Castellan Alaric: Thanks! I based them off the Shadows of Treachery artwork. Go the full how to in my WIP thread.

 

@Mantras: The fists are actually 2nd Edition space marine fists. Got the idea from someone on here, though I can't remember who.

Here is the finished Land Raider in all its glory. Its a little shiny still due to the Agrax Earthshade, but hoping to get a Matt spray to fix that. Next up is a small squad of Huscarls in terminator armour.

 

As always any c&c most welcome.

Thanks Dude with a Brush. Quite happy with the boarding marines. To be honest the OSL on the Raider is not something I'm 100% happy with, but since I've got a few deadlines coming up, I think I'll leave it for now. What was it you didn't like/could add to the metallic?

First thing that comes to my mind are gummy bears :D I think heavier but still subtle highlights, and darker lowlights ( If thats even a proper term :sweat: ) would make them pop :yes:
