Crimson Hawk Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Heck yeah, TDA is back! Love the subtle patterns on the Knights, may I ask how you achieved the effect? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the damned artificer Posted March 27, 2014 Author Share Posted March 27, 2014 BEAUTIFUL MAN !!!! Thanks man :) I approve.. now post more regularly damn you! Haha thanks mate I will, I will :P How in the hell did you get that hex pattern on there? And make it so glossy? The glossy part is due to it being candy coated with tamiya clear red :P And the pattern is done with a piece of tulle as a stencil. I am astounded. Please good sir give him to me No he's mine, MINE :P I LOVE that pattern on the knight man, how did you achieve that!? I used a piece of tulle as an airbrush stencil over a dark base to create the pattern and then candy coated it with Tamiya clear red :) Looks like fine chicken-wire pattern mesh as an airbrush mask, if I had to guess. It looks great. Nice work on the posing as well. I'll be watching to see how they turn out. Thanks man, and very close guess :D Wow that's a nice look brother Thanks man. Heck yeah, TDA is back! Love the subtle patterns on the Knights, may I ask how you achieved the effect? Thanks! Thanks, and yeah I plan to stay around more frequently :) recipe is elsewhere in this post.

the damned artificer Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 TDA so this is where you're hanging out, given up on WS? Hehe no no, I have just been out of the interwebs posting business for a while due to too much work :)Â Â Update time: I have failed miserably in finishing my knight since my last update due to unhealthy amounts of WWII luftwaffe plastic model airplanes... Ohh well :D Â But I started this beauty for a friend, my own is on hold as I have some plans for converting him a bit :) Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanofAngels Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Welcome back man! The knights look absolutely awesome. I think I'm gonna have to pick one (or more...) up for my grey knights! Horus looks equally as impressive! It looks like you're going for some sort of glow around his cowl, which I think any self-respecting chief traitor should have . Keep it up dude!

the damned artificer Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 Thanks guys!  Finally getting back on track with this army, and here's the first update on the army in a while.  Sigi has gotten a facelift (hopefully for the last time before the official model will release) from this; http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/20140219_200041_zpsf8296af9.jpg  To this; http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/FB_IMG_1424820027634_zps4qmwski3.jpg And with a bodyguard of what will be über fancy Templars http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/FB_IMG_1424819989945_zpsontaegf6.jpg  32mm bases have been aquired for the entire army, but aren't interresting to look at till they are based so here's some combat shields I'm working on instead. http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/20150210_040003_zpsjy0qwd86.jpg  And Dorn's Huskarls are taking shape as well: http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/20150221_040838_zpswnt28y4a.jpg http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/2015-02-24%2003.04.23_zpsoo9lmr45.jpg  Last but not least my Spartan is finally at the painting stage! http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/20150215_193455_zpsn9pzejfj.jpg http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/20150215_193446_zpsqhbvd33w.jpg http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/20150215_193434_zpsa8rsrcan.jpg http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/20150215_193420_zpstbz3dsek.jpg  More will follow soon, I promise.

KBA Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Superb use of the etched brass! I'm really digging everything I'm seeing. Sig looks like a beast -- always cool when the model reflect the rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the damned artificer Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 Thanks mate :) Yeah Sigi is the MVP of the non primarch players, he needs to look the part :D And I absolutely LOVE photoetched detail, it has almost unlimited uses.

Unknown Chronicler Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I remember when this thread first started and had been but a young neophyte on this website! I love how far you have come and your Imperial Fists just look amazing, the conversions are truly unique and the painting does them justice! Really good Horus and one of my top 2 of the best renditions of him and the painting is just superb! Keep at it brother! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionofjudah Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 YES!!! He's back with the VIIth!:).... Fantastic stuff man. I'm loving the down swing on the Sigi sword, the lil details on each dood are awesome, your Dorn is fanfreaking tactic- would love to see some pics with better lighting;) Horus' face... My goodness what a beaut! The Knights Ahhhh- awesomeness overload!!! I'm on my 3rd round of FW brass and think the fists sheet is the best thus far- my first was the Aquila and then the SW sheet... I'm excited to see more updates from you. Fellblade?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infyrana Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Excellent work there, loving the shields you've created! What will you be using for their shield hands on those terminators please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the damned artificer Posted February 25, 2015 Author Share Posted February 25, 2015 I really must invest in some brass etch... Great work, brother. Really characterful. Brass is worth every penny and every drop of sweat and blood it takes to get the end result. And thanks :) Amazing stuff dude!! Those Templars and the Spartan are looking brilliant and Sigismund is next level great Thanks man :) Just got myself a Spartan. How did you find assembly? Honestly I built most of the Spartan over a year ago, so I might have forgotten how it actually was. But I will say that every bit of hard work you have to put in is totally worth it in the end as a Spartan is one of the coolest tanks available. I remember when this thread first started and had been but a young neophyte on this website! I love how far you have come and your Imperial Fists just look amazing, the conversions are truly unique and the painting does them justice! Really good Horus and one of my top 2 of the best renditions of him and the painting is just superb! Keep at it brother! Thanks mate, this army has really been a labour of love so far and I am intent on having it done by the end of the year, or at least the stuff I have for it atm. who knows what will happen in the future :p And thanks, Horus is sadly not my own and will leave me once the last lick of paint is on, but I have great plans for my own version ;D YES!!! He's back with the VIIth!.... Fantastic stuff man. I'm loving the down swing on the Sigi sword, the lil details on each dood are awesome, your Dorn is fanfreaking tactic- would love to see some pics with better lighting;) Horus' face...

I'm excited to see more updates from you. Fellblade?! Thanks brother! I have some better pics of Dorn somewhere in this plog I think, but here he is again http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/RogalDorn1_zps2fa8341d.jpg The IF brass etch is some of my favourite as well, although all the different ones I have are great, the least great being the DA one, which is also one of the oldest. And the Fellblade is doing well, she has just had some bodywork done, and will commence to painting very soon. Excellent work there, loving the shields you've created! What will you be using for their shield hands on those terminators please? Thanks :) The hands I will be using are the ones from the maces from the deathwing kit.

Lachdannan Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Wow, what an update! Where to start! Since I have just finished my own Spartan, I'll be very interested in how you go about yours. Very much looking forward to it. Â I really like your Sigismund you have made, so much better than my own. Such a great pose and use of bitz. I really like what you have done for the uber Templar squad. I have held off getting the Forge World Templar Brethren for the sole reason that they are just missing something, which I found seen you have found! I hope you have the bitz process to make them in your thread somewhere, as I definitely want to recreate them. Really great work. Â Huscarl's look awesome as well. Should keep Dorn very safe! Â Fantastic work, and glad to see your still at it. Â Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The uber templars squad is mainly just mk II armour mixed with the Severin Loth honourguard torsos, helmets and halberds so far :) I will be getting a set of the templar brethren upgrades to mix up with my 2 planned 10 man Templar squads, but it is mainly for the swords and the torsos :)  Small update: Man those 32mm bases are brutal looking! http://i535.photobucket.com/albums/ee354/SteffenSJensen/Pre-heresy%20Imperial%20Fists/2015-02-26%2012.48.44_zpsl3obvslm.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye Brother! Yeah I'm really loving the extra space you get instead of those annoying 25mm bases. I just ordered some upgrades from FW so as soon as I get them the templar brethren squads will start emerging full force as well :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
