Volfen Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 After reading LOTS of posts regarding painting techniques I decided to strip and repaint some old tactical models and paint a new tac squad with the new technique. My old paint scheme was much more brass/copper looking. The new scheme hopefully looks more realistic as gold armor I hope. Its not NMM, but I hope its simular. First, I redid a set of Rogue Trader marines. We got these at least 15 years ago. Some may be part of the first group I bought for my older 2 boys back in 85 or so. Next, I had a set of mk 8 that were painted in a camoflage pattern, so with a semi-new mk7 heavy weapon and a forgeworld flamer, they were redone. The Sergeant's storm bolter is a modified scout heavy bolter. So we redid an Aobr squad to fill in and practice the scheme The final squad was a mixture of forgeworld parts, space wolf and normal parts the sergeant is a finecast sternguard with a Terminator storm bolter the heavy weapon is a forgeworld mk 6 with forgeworld missile launcher (named Bun Bun) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/240410-refurbished-tactical-squads/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solid Zaku Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Not going to lie to you...although your repainting of these marines is rather well done for a solid-color metallic, the 'burn burn' script looks like 'bum bum' which, considering it's a missile launcher, makes quite a bit of sense.

araekyus Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 digging your mix of minis here, especially the old beaks and the MK8's :) my fav in particular is on the beaks where you moved the bolter clip back some to match the current patterns.

Canis Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Is that the Forgeworld Missile Launcher? It looks all kinds of amazing. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/240410-refurbished-tactical-squads/#findComment-2907205 Share on other sites More sharing options...
