Rob_Loken Posted February 10, 2012 Author Share Posted February 10, 2012 Thanks peeps, I've got a 5 man havoc squad set up and ready for painting. And I need to build my Rhino. I'm looking forward to having a decent sized army to field now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 Hiya gang. Long time no progress. Well apart from this guy, http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2598-1.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2600-1.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2599-1.jpg An Imperial Iron Warrior Commander. And one of the few Iron Warriors granted the honour of wearing the aquilla. I've also got a Servitor for him that carries the Imperial Standard behind him but he's still in the early stages of painting. But fear not, because my 40k Iron Warriors are still ongoing, infact I've made headway into the Havoc Squad, completed one Obliterator and am close to finishing the Deamon Prince. Phew, I really should focus on one thing at a time. Cheers, Rob Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dosjetka Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Looking great mate :P Love the helmet swap and the head you gave him. Ludovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted March 7, 2012 Author Share Posted March 7, 2012 Cheers, I was quite pleased with him as he only took an hour and a half. Dorns Fist @ Haha it's really really sharp at the end! Nah, I wanted to try and convey the look of him inspecting a piece of enemie equipment after a battle, perhaps the Eldar appeared from nowhere so the Iron Warriors are gathering intel on who attacked them, or maybe he's thinking "that would look good on a spike", and that's when the fall started.

Grizzly_bear Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Loool or he could actual be thinking "that'll look good on me" as we all know the Iron warriors are cross dressers compared to us sons of Dorn :lol: All joking aside though, your models are all excellent an very well painted, metal coloured marines really put me off painting them so you're braver than me.

Rob_Loken Posted March 7, 2012 Author Share Posted March 7, 2012 Haha I suggest we settle this with a sand castle building competition, as I'm sure that's how the rivalry started. Cheers mate, the silvers I can do quite easy but i always get apprehensive when it comes to golds. That's probably why I'll never have a Celestial Lions Army, though I hear I can make the full chapter with one box of space marines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 Hiya, Got an update on my Iron Warriors. I completed the Captains Standard Bearer and I also finished up some of my Havoc Squad. http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2601.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/PICT2604.jpg Needless to say this army is becoming quite Infantry heavy.

Kierdale Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 That commander is beautiful! Really well done. And the Havocs are looking good too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted March 11, 2012 Author Share Posted March 11, 2012 Cheers mate, the Captain was fun to do, a bit of a change but not too much ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Colossus Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 The middle havoc looks like he should be gracing the cover of a Black Library book hes that cool. I think its a VAST improvement on the stock model. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted March 12, 2012 Author Share Posted March 12, 2012 Cheers mate, I love the model but I've already got a Chaos Lord and really the model just didn't scream Warsmith at me but he definitely looks like an aspiring champ. So a few conversions later and he looked like a decent squad leader. Plus I get to use the cool servo arm back pack on a future IC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyrannosaurus Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Loving your work as always Bruvva Duncs - in particular the servitor skin and the poses on the havocs - oh and the captain - actually I think it's all sick, looking forward to seeing more.

It's one of my favourite chaos marine sculpts, but I think you've actually made it better. I didn't like the left arm that much on the original model tbh.

Rob_Loken Posted March 12, 2012 Author Share Posted March 12, 2012 I gave the fist to another aspiring champ, sharing out the bionics as much as I can, my icon bearer for the third squad has the bionic arm from the Lascannon Iron Warrior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob_Loken Posted March 18, 2012 Author Share Posted March 18, 2012 Thanks mate, I loves me them Iron Warriors, I just need to concentrate more on getting what I've got finished instead of going out and buying more stuff for the army. I mean, yesterday I go out to town and come back with these guys and paint them up! It wouldnt be so bad but I've got a Defiler, a Deamon Prince, an Obliterator and the rest of my Havoc Squad topainti. Not to mention the Rhino sat in a box since the beginning. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7038/6848281308_ee4c1e9a00.jpg Iron Warriors Chaos Dreadnought 1 by rob_loken, on Flickr http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7190/6994404025_68128816f4.jpg Iron Warriors Chaos Dreadnought by rob_loken, on Flickr http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7066/6990518975_a8d29d1638.jpg Nurgle Chaos Sorceror 2 by rob_loken, on Flickr Anyhoo, as it stands, this is what I've got as an army. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7207/6994404503_3526a9ddb5.jpg Iron Warriors Army so far by rob_loken, on Flickr Cheers, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Ross88 Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Lovely nurgle sorcerer there. Did something similar myself for my Death Guard. How did you paint the exposed guts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted March 20, 2012 Author Share Posted March 20, 2012 Cheers mate, I originally bought just so I could paint something other than a space marine model but I like to be able to use my minis so I did a little bit of converting so that he could see action along side my Iron Warriors. The guts were painted by first applying a layer of scab red and washed it with Baal red. Then I just highlighted it with a 50/50 mix of scab red and bleached bone before washing it with Devlan Mud.

Rob_Loken Posted March 23, 2012 Author Share Posted March 23, 2012 Got a bit more of my Havoc Squad done today, up to 4 now. They're my stand out unit, last night I had a game against Blood Angels and they slagged a ten my Assault Squad and a Baal Predator. http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/015-3.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Lord Shamrockius Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I love what you've done with the Venerable Dread. I'm working on my second at the moment and I can see a lot of the little tweaks you've done on this being used on this. Absolutely great! I think I missed the close ups of the Defiler, I'd love to see what you've done with that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Loken Posted March 23, 2012 Author Share Posted March 23, 2012 Cheers mate, Until we get a decent plastic dread for chaos the Venerables the only way to go for me. Just whacking on little bits of Chaos iconography works wonders. ;) I haven't finished the Defiler yet but when I do I'll be sure to post up some pics.

Rob_Loken Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 Finished my Havocs. Woopieeeeee!!!! Thats all three of my Infantry Squads done now. I just need the defiler finished and my Obliterators and Terminators done. http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/015-3.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/014.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/016.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/020.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/018.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/022-1.jpg http://i958.photobucket.com/albums/ae63/Astartes_Loken/026.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
