Midnightmare Posted March 17, 2016 Author Share Posted March 17, 2016 Thanks again guys peeps, it warms my cold heart that this topic is still of interest to you all :tu: I have struggled with my hobby muse of late (as we all do from time to time) and this little Deathwatch project re-ignited it somewhat, so with a little luck I will get back on track. @ Flint - I certainly feel out of practice, as do my dead and dying brushes and paints!! But I really enjoyed painting these which I haven't for a long time. @ Auggie - I did have an Assault Marine planned with twin lightning claws too, but that's when my muse be like "Yo, why don't you just give him a fist instead, an paint him Death Company?" and "What about a few mates to go with him?"; "That Assassin of yours could do with assembly" and before you know it my finger had clicked away to purchase the Deredeo :D Incidentally, when is the ETL this year?

Augustus b'Raass Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 Ooooh, a Deredeo. That'd look swell in your beautiful Flesh Eaters colour scheme. The ETL will start, as it always has, in May? I'm guessing though. But I've had some PMs with Semper a while ago and he seemed very much intent on running it again. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted March 17, 2016 Author Share Posted March 17, 2016 Not far off at all....if I get a-building then I will pledge with the Blood Angels then this year; sounds like a plan, Stan :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thousand Eyes Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Not far off at all....if I get a-building then I will pledge with the Blood Angels then this year; sounds like a plan, Stan Looking forward to seeing that! No idea if I will pledge for ETL this year. Midnightmare 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LutherMax Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Love the Sharks teeth on the side of the beaky helm - brilliant idea! Red power sword is awesome too :) Midnightmare 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted April 2, 2016 Author Share Posted April 2, 2016 Thanks Luther and 1K Eyes :) Nothing too exciting guys, washed and built my Deredeo, needs a little gap filling hear and there before its ready for the ETL, but progress I tell thee! Not adventuress with the pose, but I quite like it - http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh190/MidnightRunner81/Mobile%20Uploads/image_39.jpeg Waiting on a fancy resin base :) Augustus b'Raass and Cadmus Tyro 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marine7312000 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 At least you didn't glue the weapons in odd positions like I did..... Can't wait to see this painted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LutherMax Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 How did you find it to build? I found it a bit tricky to get everything lined up so I pinned almost everything! Mine is part-way through painting now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midnightmare Posted April 2, 2016 Author Share Posted April 2, 2016 Cheers guys, I didn't find it too difficult really; there is not a great deal of parts really but the arms especially are tricky to line up. Pinning wise I have only pinned at the waist and hips, and I threw some magnets under the missile launcher. Cretheus - it was yours bamf one that gave me the final push to buy one, though I think the Ceramite Armour is a requirement ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midnightmare Posted April 8, 2016 Author Share Posted April 8, 2016 Well my base ha arrived now from eBay needs a little work, and I have to fill a little bit of a bubble here and there on the Dread, but he isn't far off for paint. Depends how my these new Black Legion formations whet my appetite; I am I the fortunate position of having loads of cool stuff to be able to paint; Deredeo, Death Co, Sanguinary Guard, Astorath counts as for my Flesh Eaters, while for the Legion I have a Sicaran, Abaddon, Khorne Termies, Possessed, Chosen, Berzerkers, Bloodletters, a Blood Thirster....and.....and.....ah :cuss !

Jolemai Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 ...and spent the last two ETLs supporting Chaos ;) I'm bias, but you know what I'd like to see :) Midnightmare 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted April 8, 2016 Author Share Posted April 8, 2016 Ha ha very true! (Wouldn't believe it to look at that list though) I do have a Khorne Termie Lord also that needs to be done before the ETL for a club comp too.....ah :cuss x2 lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naw man, as much as I would love to I am most likely rolling with the loyalists this year as I need the Flesh Eaters more up to date; its a shame that peeps can't paint for more than one faction (not that I ever finish much lol). Maybe.......though the Legion needs work too...... Edited April 10, 2016 by Midnight Runner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe.......though the Legion needs work too...... Very nice look you have here! Was surfing through the forum and found your Blog. Also, might we see some ETL love from the Flesh Eaters? I sure think it would be keen if you haven't pledge anything yet. The Sons of Sanguinius need a bit of love and That Deredeo sure would look good in some red.

Eldrick Shadowblade Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Midnight! Love this thread. Did you post your formula for the red you achieve elsewhere? I'm about to do some khorne demonkin and I really like that color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted June 2, 2016 Author Share Posted June 2, 2016 Hey guys thanks for the comments :tu: Dont-Be-Haten - sorry dude it took a lot of soul searching but I have pledged for my traitors this time. They just need more work to get them to a decent standard painted. Fear not, my Flesh Eaters will return! Shadowblade- cheers man, I have no doubt posted it somewhere on here, but for ease here you go, all over a black undercoat - Scorched Brown Mechrite Red, leaving the brown showing in the recesses. Blood Red as a first highlight Troll Slayer Orange over some of the very sharp edges where applicable. Battle damage to suit. You may note that the brown and reds are old GW colours, I did actually buy a load of them up before they went out of production. Evil Midnight, naughty Midnight :D Thanks again for the comments guys B) Barraka, Eldrick Shadowblade and Dont-Be-Haten 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dont-Be-Haten Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Shame. They would look good next to some Carmine Blades. Good luck can't wait to see more. Midnightmare 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midnightmare Posted June 3, 2016 Author Share Posted June 3, 2016 Heh, cheers dudes; it's just since my return to the hobby (2009) I have been painting/playing Blood Angels or Flesh Eaters, and I am kind of enjoying the change of pace with the Black Legion atm :) The Flesh Eaters will return in the future, have no fear :tu: Dont-Be-Haten 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the 7th ed. codex came out and I have fallen in love with the Carmine Blades. I fancy the "less" tainted of the traitor legions. If we can ever get some decent rules in 40k for the Iron Warriors and Night Lords, I will definitely pick them back up. But for the moment, all my chaos love goes to AoS actually.

Augustus b'Raass Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 For fear of threadomancing, but I know you're active on the forum. I would loooove to see that deredeo in those beautiful Flesh Tearer colours of yours.... :) Jolemai 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnightmare Posted January 30, 2017 Author Share Posted January 30, 2017 Yep, sorry not been back to revisit these guys for a while as I have been busy with other projects. In fact they haven't been out of the box for a game in a long time either! I am sure the muse will return however :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
