KrautScientist Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Now what you should really do is convert your own Dread from one of the loyalist kits -- I'm sure you'd hit it out of the park! The real problem is that the FW Dread - lovely as it may be - sports a very classic Death Guard look, while the rest of your army is something altogether different. Just sayin'...

disease Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 This awesome, if you don't mind I think I may rust up a few of my own pieces!  How did you prime? Did you use a special type primer first, or just paint the iron straight on to the plastic / normal minature primer?

disease Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 thanks. I'm really excited to give this a go - I bought copper and bronze paints and blue / green patinas to test out all kinds of effects. Did you have to apply a special laquer to stop the oxidisation from continuing, or do you think normal model varnish will work? Did you even bother?

tazz888 Posted May 28, 2013 Author Share Posted May 28, 2013 I did spray them with a matte finish. It was more to seal and protect the finish than anything. The rusting procces will stop after a day or two. I have a Tru Scale Storm Raven that I statred months ago that has not continued to rust after the first few days.

Will be expanding the squads to 10 man, get going with painting the Plague Hulk as well as the Hell Blade and start building the Warhound. A few Vindicators may find their way into the mix as well!!!

I've got lots of modelling to do so it wont be just yet, but i'm really keen to see how you army grows! Thanks for being an inspiration and having the genius to do this Thanks for the kind words!! Feel free to ask me any questions along the way. Can't wait to see how yours turn out! On a side note, I've started to paint the FW Hell Blade that will be a counts as Heldrake. The Plague Hulk has been primed and the Warhound build has started!! More troops will be built once the last of the required bits arrive I'll post updates as progress is made.

Brother Ambroz Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Hey Tazz, these guys are really nice. The rusty look is very effective. What are the skull heads from though? Bugging me that I can't figure it out.... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/242328-csm-the-reborn/page/3/#findComment-3389959 Share on other sites More sharing options...
